No Scan Data Tooltip
  • EpinnoiaEpinnoia July 2009
    I just recently updated to the preview version, and shortly afterwards I have lost the tooltip information for Ethereal Ink. Hovering over the item the initial time breaks it somehow, and subsequent hovers give me nothing.

    Is there a way to salvage my data file, short of going in and removing every single line that contains a reference to Ethereal Ink?

    The Auc-ScanData.lua file is currently about 13 megs in size. Is that reaching the limit?

    As it stands now, no other items appear to have broken tooltips -- just the Ethereal Ink. Which, interestingly enough, prevents me from being able to post it from the appraiser tab or the post tab.

    It appears to have affected some of my other ink data in the same way as well.

    These Inks all had their tooltips break at the same time:
    Lion's Ink
    Moonglow Ink
    Midnight Ink
    Ivory Ink
    Shimmering Ink
    Ethereal Ink
    Snowfall Ink

    Yet the following inks still have working tooltips:
    Dawnstar Ink
    Fiery Ink
    Darkflame
    Ink of the Sky
    Hunter's Ink
    Royal Ink

    It may be worth noting that I haven't sold or purchased some of the inks in both lists for a very long time.

    I also cannot retrieve the gold from my mailbox for sales of items which are broken (Ethereal and Snowfall inks).

    Deleted the file "Informant.lua" in SavedVariables folder, and that appears to have fixed the situation.

    Still -- seems odd that it broke on half the inks, and not the other half. Weird.

    Sounds like you had some bad data stored in that file for the specific inks that broke. Can those inks be bought from a vendor somewhere?

    All the inks that break are sold by Jessica Sellers in Dalaran, the the others are not. Looks like she is the culprit!

    Good call.

    What sort of data is held in the 'informant.lua' data file in the savedvariables folder? And more importantly, why would deleting this file fix the problem like it did?

    I thought it was just a corrupted "Auc-ScanData.lua" data file, but I guess it wasn't. I was actually a bit surprised, but happy, that the problem was resolved when I deleted the 'informant.lua' savedvariables file.

    I tried updating to the preview version a while ago as well, and it had the same problem -- but I noticed it with my Snowfall Ink. I backed up my entire WTF folder, however, and simply restored it after reverting back to the release version.

    It seems there is something in the preview version which breaks on the vendor type inks sold by Jessica Sellers, rather than corrupted data. Or at least this new version breaks when it sees old data files from the release version, regarding these inks.

    I'd love to help test the preview version a bit more, if you can get me to a point where it doesn't break on these particular inks.

    It sounds to my like you've got the option to update prices when you visit vendors turned on, and I'm guessing the inks that Jessica Seller's sells aren't sold for gold/silver/copper, but some other item that the addon isn't expecting, and thus doesn't know how to deal with. Soon, the option to update at a vendor will be obsolete anyway, as we'll be able to query that information directly from the game at any time.

    Quite interesting. Correct, the ink trades with Jessica Seller are not in gold/silver/copper. They're ink-for-ink trades.

    I will now go look for the option to turn off the 'update prices' feature.

    I found the option with the "/informant config" command, and the option to update prices at vendor was not turned on. I'll turn off informant now in config, and see if the preview version breaks again. Thanks.

    They all are traded for Ink of the Sea.

    To be honest, I do have preview version (more, i'm mostly running on SVN snapshot) and it is not breaking on any of the inks.
    That's why I was surprized reading this topic.
