Global 'date'

I am receiving this message:

Interface\Addons\CensusPlus\CensusPlus.lua:1649: attempt to call global 'date' (a nil value)

Anyone have an idea what could be causing this error?

My version I have is from (CensusPlus-1800-3.0-2.zip).

Thanks.

What server are you running it on? I know the 2 new servers that are Oceanatic Prefered will not run it. I got a message when I started a character one of those servers.

Hrm... that would be odd if those servers did not support the date function. Otherwise, you will get this error when someone else's mod has hijacked the date function.

I finally figured out what was causing my problem. The problem was with another addon. Not sure why. The name of the addon is GIRD.

After I turned the addon off things started working fine. It was also causing problems with Call to Arms but since I had never used CtA before I didn't realize it was a conflict causing it to be a pain. ;)

I'm okay now. Thanks.

GIRD is a cool program. I have never seen that add-on before. I think once he has his new release in place I might try it.

That addon probably has a global variable called date, which causes it to hijack the actual function from the Blizz API.
