totalCharacterXP problem

Guest · Post by **Guest** » Thu Apr 28, 2005 3:12 am

I am using CensusPlus 2.0 and whenever I open up the census panel I now get the error:

[string "CensusPlus.lua"]: 1128: attempt to perform arithmetic on local 'totalCharacterXP' (a nil value)

I am unable to view any of my census data I have taken anymore.

Slight correction. The error is on line 1459 in CensusPlus 2.0. I had reverted back to 1.8 to see if that would fix the problem but the error also occurs on line 1128 in CensusPlus 1.8.

Have you submitted data to the site? If so what is your server/guild/character names so I can find the submitted info and try it out. If not, could you submit your file and give me that info?

Yes I've uploaded on a couple occasions.

Server: Stormrage
Guild: Harmony of Souls
Character: Tippwindy (Alliance - Main)

Character: Daijou (Horde - Alt)

I narrowed down the problem a bit. The error will only popup when I have no categories selected such as a specific guild. It only pops up when nothing is selected and the graph attempts to display stats for the whole server. There are over 9500 characters on the server taken now and the "total character XP" is displaying a negative number which decreases the more data is collected.

Yeah, I need to do a work around for total XP. It can't handle more than about 6k characters.

I'll take a look tomorrow!

Just FYI getting the same error for the Allaice side on Kargath (Horde censi (?) still work just fine). I census for the Horde (usually as Kailynn) and when I can, as Paladar for the Aliance.

Yesterdays patch seemed to fix it for a bit, I was only getting the negative number bug, but just tried to take one and I am getting the scripting error pop up and the script continiously sends who 60 and processing the 50 replies.

YOu mean it never tried to break it down by race and/or class? Just kept doing /who 60-60 over and over?

Actually I was wrong...

It never does break down the 60s, repeats the processing message a couple of times (with no new /who's) and then /whos 55-59 as normal. I am taking one now (at about 5:50 AM EST on Kargath as Paladar).

It will then repeat the number found in the processing line a couple of times and wait to send the next request, add some random number to the processing total (that had match the /who returns) and then move on to the next step. (Processing 35, waiting to send request, processing 35, waiting to send request, prcessing 44, waiting to send request, then it throws the next who.) All the graphs are defaulted to 0 values.

And then it will stall at waiting to send who requests at well I guess level 0.
sending /who 1-5
Processing 8 characters
waiting to send who request
Processing 8 characters
waiting to send who request
Processing 8 characters
waiting to send who request

I hit stop here and got a census is not currently in progress. No summation of the data gotten.

I will submit this log to see if you get anything.

Cleaver user (ha!) just found and used the purge button, which seem to solve the problem at least once.

Kailyn -

That is some very odd behavior indeed. I have not heard of it acting in this way before. I can't really think of why it would do this. I will check on a couple of things though and see if I can spy any problems.

Thanks!
