REQ - The troubleshooter

Huggernaut · April 2015

So, I

my addons and every once in awhile I get addons that don't like to play nice with one another. Sometimes a addon will break on an update, either from the game or the author.

What I am wondering is,

- Is there any way to make a simple addon that adds a simple slash command like /breport that tells me exactly which addons are conflicting with one another?

Like for example, I have one error message that I get on one of my mules, that informs me "some add on" is messing with lib 2.0. Which is about as helpful as reading tea leaves trying to divine the lotto numbers for this evening

Is there something that does this already? or is this possible to do? because I think it would be a fantastic tool to have!

Sure, I can go down the list disabling add ons one by one, trouble shooting each one manually, but if there was a way to speed that process up, fantastic.

Cheers.

It's not possible if not handled at the source, so for 99% of the addons, it's not possible.

For the problem you mentionned, it should be an outdated addon, try to update yours, using Minion is fast and really easy.

or search for LibAddonMenu-2.0 in your disk.
You should have a bunch of files and in each LibAddonMenu-2.0.lua
you'll get in the firsts lines

local MAJOR, MINOR = "LibAddonMenu-2.0", 17

if it's not 17, update the addon. or replace the whole folder by another good one from another addon.

There is no way to speed up the process. Narrowing down the add-on by disabling one by one is the fastest way.
