LUA Errors on loading

[gweber]

Zygor Guides Viewer is giving this error on startup:
"ERROR initializing, check teh Lua errors and report them, please."

As such, I'm here to report them. I'd love some advice on what might be going on.

I receive this error even when I have no other Addons loaded:

I am having the exact same issue. I removed all my addons except for Zygor and I'm getting the Lua error message and the Zygor window is just stuck saying loading. Any idea of a fix?

Thanks,
Mahll

Got the exact same issue and I just updated to the latest available version.

[leonvandermerwe]

Same, any news on an update for Pre-Patch?

[carlin65]

Same issue , no other addons used.

Guys I found a fix, go to your settings, Go to Profiles and Wipe all settings. You have to hold shift and left click when clicking WIPE ALL SETTINGS. When it reloads, your guides will pop up fresh. I guess your old character profiles creates some sort of issue, Hope this helps

How do you "go to Profiles"? Are you talking about Profiles in the Zygor settings, or elsewhere? BTW, Thanks!

I found out: /zygor execconfig

Yes in the Zygor Settings

LMAO Glad it worked out

Thanks for all the input.
I was experiencing the the same LUA errors, and the guide veiwer not loading correctly.
With the "zygor /execconfig" command, and the hint in the LUA error that it might be the pointer, I was able to nail my issue down to the "Lock arrow" setting.
When I have the waypoint arrow locked, I experience the LUA errors. As soon as I uncheck the "Lock arrow" and reload, Zygor seems to be working fine.

Thanks! It was the damn arrow

Thanks everyone for the "/zygor execconfig" suggestion. Unlocking the waypoint arrow fixed my issue as well. I'm guessing it was an out-of-bounds condition of some type on the X/Y coordinate of the screen position that is somehow related to the new WoW UI.
