To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Enable Lua error logs
Reload UI
See error

Screenshots

Did you try having WeakAuras as the only enabled addon and everything else (especially something like ElvUI) disabled?

Which version of WeakAuras are you using?

Are you on World of Warcraft Classic or Retail?

Classic
Retail
[ X] Shadowlands

Was it working in a previous version? If yes, which was the last good one?

BfA

Additional Info

Since the /wa command didn't work I tried to search for a solution online and found out how to display LUA error logs. All my addons are up to date, I tried making WeakAuras the only loaded addon and I still get the same error.

Stanzilla · Answer 1 · 2020-10-20T11:19:57.000Z

That looks like an outdated installation, which version do you have installed?

Kyle-corbeel · Answer 2 · 2020-10-20T11:23:01.000Z

I am currently on 3.0.4 I last updated this morning

Stanzilla · Answer 3 · 2020-10-20T11:30:43.000Z

Could you try reinstalling that, please?

Kyle-corbeel · Answer 4 · 2020-10-20T11:45:12.000Z

I still seem to be getting the same error

Stanzilla · Answer 6 · 2020-10-20T11:53:53.000Z

Where are you getting your WeakAuras download from?

Kyle-corbeel · Answer 7 · 2020-10-20T11:55:12.000Z

Most of them are from Wagio, some I customized myself. Might it be some specific weakauras? If so, is there a way to disable them one by one?

Stanzilla · Answer 8 · 2020-10-20T11:56:00.000Z

I meant WeakAuras itself, from Twitch?

Kyle-corbeel · Answer 9 · 2020-10-20T11:57:51.000Z

yes the twitch launcher

Stanzilla · Answer 10 · 2020-10-20T11:58:30.000Z

Can you try downloading and installing it manually? https://www.wowace.com/projects/weakauras-2/files/3086537 click download here.

Kyle-corbeel · Answer 11 · 2020-10-20T12:03:15.000Z

It works now. I noticed that the zip file I just downloaded had an extra map called WeakAurasArchive, I didn't have that map before.
Thank you for your help and your quick responses. Do you need me to do something more, to figure out what the problem was?

Kyle-corbeel · Answer 12 · 2020-10-20T12:31:14.000Z

When reenabling other addons, I seem to be encountering lua errors there as well. There might be something wrong with my specific twitch installer, since I seem to be one of the only people encountering this problem.

Stanzilla · Answer 13 · 2020-10-20T13:07:52.000Z

I'd blame it on the Twitch app, yeah!
