[Fixed] History still not working

[DevTeam] [Zeke]: I love that I get emailed when someone reports spam on the boards, but I can't do anything about it.
[DevTeam] [Nachonut]: lol i got you
[DevTeam] [Astaldo]: How about "hide email address from public checked" and it's still visible in all my posts...
[DevTeam] [Astaldo]: I'd delete my account on this site, but by the time I realized the problem half the spambots on the planet had it already
[Developer] [Pazza]: Astaldo if you log out and view your profile with a refresh you'll see that your email is hidden.
[Developer] [Pazza]: Your user level on the forums permit you to see emails even though they are marked hidden.
[DevTeam] [Astaldo]: Ah.. thanks for the clarification and apologies for "crying wolf" in that case :
[DevTeam] [Kaidenn]: PAZZA! i miss you.
[DevTeam] [Nachonut]: Lol, it's funny how it takes spam message reports to get me to come back
[DevTeam] [sylvanaar]: Check out the beta tester forum. Need alpha testers and feedback so I can come up with a maintenance plan.
[Developer] [Pazza]: loaded some new spam prevention modules... lets see if this stops the bastards.
[DevTeam] [Maziel]: Thought I'd check in and say Howdy Doody from Australia
[DevTeam] [Maziel]: Yeah the spam from shoes salesmen was becoming insane
[Guest] [Delakando]: What ever happened to the ability to track friend's location by wim? Other then just showing their general zone location.
Zeke pokes his head around the corner.
[DevTeam] [Zeke]: Anybody home?
[Guest] [Theillur]: I would like to know if it is just me.

[DevTeam] [lothaer]: Check out my new post in the Skins forum
[DevTeam] [lothaer]: Posted a new download in the skins forum check it out
[DevTeam] [lothaer]: Zeke, Maziel, Pazza, Nachonut, sylvanaar, Kaidenn, Astaldo where are you?
[DevTeam] [lothaer]: It would be a real shame if WIM was left to die.
[DevTeam] [lothaer]: i think these forums are dead, Sylvanaar dosnt post on them as he only bug fixes when possible. WIMs future isnt very bright
[Guest] [justgiz]: Yea, its rather sad.
[Guest] [silvercola]: I wish it had skype
[DevTeam] [lothaer]: noy possible for a addon to do.
[DevTeam] [lothaer]: ...........

[DevTeam] [lothaer]: has anyone been able to take WIM to the beta yet?
[DevTeam] [lothaer]: PTR*
[DevTeam] [Maziel]: *sticks head up and looks around*

[DevTeam] [lothaer]: who the hell flagged my post as spam?
[Guest] [primalforce]: Hey guys

[DevTeam] [lothaer]: PAZZA COME BACK!!!
[DevTeam] [Nachonut]: Ahhh memories
[Guest] [Ignis]: wtb update
[DevTeam] [lothaer]: soooo.....
Pazza starts to complain... Kinda reminds you of Sloans dont it?

[kmotion]

Error message is-
Interface\Addons\WIM\History.lua:895: attempt to get length of local 'tbl' (a nil value)

This happens with no addons enabled except for WIM, and i can reproduce this error accross all of my characters on Mug'thol.
same error occurs with all addons enabled.
I have also deleted and re-installed WIM, with no change.
The WIM history viewer appears to work fine on Staghelm and Tichondrius, which leads me to suspect that the appostrophe in Mug'thol is the cause of the error.

any quick fix to this?

[Stewart]

which version of WIM are you using?

if you're running the latest (3.0.4b) , does the error still occur when you run /wim clear history

[Pazza]

Don't clear your history just yet.

First make sure you have the latest version.

yes, i am running the latest version 3.0.4b, but i have not tried to clear the history yet.
i guess i'm between a rock and a hard place, because my past  history is what i want to keep, but yet i'll have to clear it to get WIM working.

is there another alternative?

[Stewart]

you could take a backup copy of WTF\Account\xxxxxxxxx\SavedVariables\WIM.lua before resetting, if it doesn't fix the problem then you can (close wow and) restore the backup copy and still have your history.

[Pazza]

Very odd indeed. Definitely save a copy of your saved variables file of WIM. Remember you need to replace the file while logged out. reloading the UI will not work.

I get the same error, I have tried to clear the history, etc. and it does not work. I play on the realm US Lightning's Blade. I have read the articles before on the past bug with the regex error, could it be possible that this error is still occurring on realms such as the one I play on? The space and the apostrophe characters are unique to certain realms. Can someone please write a fix for this? I have never had an issue until the 3.0.2 patch..

[Stewart]

I can't see how the Regex can be failing,

Code:

^([^/]+)/?(.*)$

match (completely) one or more characters that isn't a slash, then optionally a slash, then zero or more characters, although it is only being reported on realms with strange names

I guess I have to wait for a fix for this, I do believe it's the apostrophe that's causing the problems..

bug tracked down, should be fixed next release
