Some upload problems

There's been a server-side bug which has randomly crippled a lot of uploads, resulting in the uploads not being validated and thus an error being shown when you tried to perform the upload. The bug has been fixed now, so you shouldn't have any more problems submitting data :)

    Danke fuer den schnellen Fix, super :D

    Eine Frage habe ich noch: seit geraumer Zeit kriege ich keine All-Time Upload-Statistiken mehr angezeigt, alles steht auf 0. Weisst du woran das liegt bzw was ich tun kann damit es wieder funktioniert?

    Danke schon einmal im voraus

    Gruss,
    Sub

    Hallo Slarti,

    wäre es möglich, die Rezepte ingame verlinkbar zu machen, sodass man also ein Rezept (wie aus dem Berufs-UI) mit allen Zutaten verlinken kann?

    Moin,

    zum Questtracker: gibt es eine Möglichkeit, dass Quests im Tracker dann automatisch eingeblendet werden, wenn eines der erforderlichen Events (Kill, eingesammelt, etc.) aufgetreten ist? Das automatische Ausblenden bei erledigt ist ja bereits vorhanden. Natürlich müssten die auch manuell ein- und ausblendbar sein. Vielleicht am einfachsten, indem das Tracking-Flag im Questlog gesetzt, gelöscht und für die Anzeige ausgewertet wird??

    Ansonsten Riesen-Danke für eins der genialsten WOW-Tools ;)

    hi mate

    will you be able to fix the problem which I reported before. it is about the alpha map.

    alphamap has an ability. you can alt+right click to zoom out map in tha alphamap frame. so you can use alphamap like the main man. you can navigave to any zone.

    latest mobmap version breaks this ability of alphamap. when I disable the mobmap, alt+right click works good on alphamap.

    there were no problem with the previous mobmap version before the expansion

    thank you

    Hi!

    I play Horde and checked for undone Quests. Mobmap say "Wanted: Lieutenant Fangore" is a Quest, but it's only for alliance.

    bye

  7. humfras says:

    Don't forget to check your faction symbol located on the right^^

  8. Stefan says:

    This was on! Mobmap says only 2 Quests in this Region.

  9. humfras says:

    I'm wondering:

    Are you looking for horde quests in Redridge Mountains?
    If yes, cause this is alliance territory (even it is flaged "Contested"), there are only 2 quest for horde players:

  14. Slarti says:

    I know that there was a bug in MobMap some versions ago that could cause such an error, but it should have already been fixed. Did this occur in the most current version?

  15. Bastiene says:

    Yes this is the most recent version and it only happens in instances in WOTLK.

  16. Bastiene says:

    Got this while in bird form in borean over the water targeting the penguins. FYI I did delete out my saved variables before going into the game, thei sthe first time I got this outside an instance.

  17. Bastiene says:

    Come to think about when I am in instances I am always in tree form so it may be druid for related? Just a thought

  18. Bastiene says:

    nope reloaded UI and standing on the ice with the penguins in normal form I still get the error, maybe it is a conflict with another mod like carbonite or something. I will disable all and go back out there today and test some more.

  19. Bastiene says:

    Not a Mod conflict. What I found is this:

    If I am in borean Tundra and any of its sub zones - no error. As soon as I go out in the Frozen Sea and target I get the error. I assume it is the same code causing me issues inside the instances.

    I have deleted WTF saved variables, deleted MobMap and all databases, downloaded new and re installed. still get these same errors.

  20. Bastiene says:

    Ok I apparently didn't test as completely as I thought I had, with Just MobMap on there are no errors. With Just MobMap ( latest version ) and Carbonite ( full\latest version) the error occurs. Sorry for the miss information earlier. I will also post this on Carbonite Forum.

  21. LaoTseu says:

    About the uploading problem, it is still happening for me. In fact, I haven't been able to upload anything since I got WotLK.

    When I try to upload, there is a error message in German that is displayed in a Windows Pop-up.

    "Zugriffsverletzung bei Adresse OCF447B7 in Modul 'MobMapUpdaterExternals.dll'. Lesen von Adresse 00000014."

  22. Slarti says:

    If nothing else helps, it might help to clear the saved data (there's a button for this in MobMap itself, in the data export window, or one in the uploader). In some rare occasions it has happened that there was some garbage in there which crashed the updater. Of course that junks the collected data, but it might fix the uploading problem for any newly collected stuff.

  23. LaoTseu says:

    I did that already. I'll do it again just to be sure and let you know.

  24. LaoTseu says:

    I erased all my accumulated data and I still cannot upload with the same error message in German.

  25. Doomgaze says:

    I found a bug in mobmap that's kinda annoying: Whenever I select a "Sells Item" or "Reward:" condition (the ones that bring up a popup list of item names) I can't remove the item from future searches without reloading the UI. This is really annoying since I run with a lot of high memory addons and it takes a good solid 2 minutes to reload my UI. If there is a way to clear this qualifier or just reset MobMap, please reply, because this has been bugging me for a while. :)

    Keep up the great work!

  26. Slarti says:

    Actually right-clicking the condition text itself should not open the window, but clear the condition.

    I thought I had described that mechanic in a tooltip, though it might be possible that this tooltip is only being shown if newbie tips are enabled globally (which is kinda bad in this case, I think I'll change that so it's always shown).

  27. Doomgaze says:

    Thanks for the reply Slarti! I'll give that a try!

  28. Korgan Nailo says:

    Hi Slarti!

    First of all thanks for such a great addon, one of the best around!

    I know this is kind off topic, but...

    I've collected a ton of data but I can't upload it since it surpasses the field limit on the upload page. I'm also a Mac user, so, no Updater for me.

    Is there any other way to send it to the database?

    Thank you.

  29. Gogi says:

    Hallo,
    ich spiele mit dem deutschen Client, aber mit dem englischen Sprachpack. MobMap mit der englischsprachigen Datenbank beschwert sich beim Starten immer mit der Fehlermeldung:
    "ERROR: MobInfo database locale is incompatible with your WoW client locale. MobInfo database is unusable, until fixed first."
    Trotz dieser Meldung funktioniert MobMap jedoch einwandfrei. Sicherlich wäre es kein großer Aufwand, dies beim nächsten Release zu fixen?

  30. Jaim Sandar says:

    This doesn't have anything to do with the upload problems, but I don't know where else to say this. I have been having problems with TomTom, and the author of that AddOn says the following:
    There is nothing I can do to fix this issue. You will need to bring the following points/observations up with the author of MobMap in order to have them addressed:

    WORLD_MAP_UPDATE race condition

    MobMap, as downloaded from http://mobmap.de has a severe race condition with WORLD_MAP_UPDATE that will cause problems not only with TomTom but with any other map addon (potentially). These happen with only MobMap installed, and can be seen with the following script:

    /run local f = CreateFrame("Frame"); f:RegisterEvent("WORLD_MAP_UPDATE"); f:SetScript("OnEvent", function(self, event, ...) print("This should not be happening frequently...") end)

    This race condition is happening because MobMap decides to check the player's coordinates OnUpdate in a very bad way. It also does some nasty funky things with Astrolabe.

    Astrolabe version

    MobMap from the same source does not include a correct copy of Astrolabe. It's nearly impossible to tell how out of date the version is because it does not include the version number. The addon author needs to fix this.

    TomTom support

    The reason MobMap is broken is because the author is not using the TomTom API in the way he should. Instead he is trying to use the slash command (which changed in the last 13 or so versions due to conflicts with Cartographer).

    However, I cannot guarantee that even if the developer were to switch to the right method (which is trivial by the way) that the addon would operate correctly. It has a NUMBER of issues, and I'm sure I've barely scratched the surface.

    Thank you.

  31. Slarti says:

    I see the issues and will probably also contact Cladhaire myself to solve those.

  32. Bryan says:

    Three different computers all have the same issue on trying to upload:
    (Cannot read german but looks like a memory error)
    Zugriffsverletzung bei Adresse 0A6247B7 in Modul 'MobMapUpdaterExternals.dll'. Lesen von Adresse 00000014.
    Different addresses in each one usually.

    Tried to just clear the data and wait a day, then reupload, but same issue.

    2 of the computers are running Vista, disabled UAC. Other one is XP.

  33. Slarti says:

    This is strange...could you please send me a few game cache files from those systems so I can investigate the problem as soon as I have some spare time? I'd be interested mostly in the files ItemCache.wdb, GameObjectCache.wdb, CreatureCache.wdb and QuestCache.wdb from your [wow path]\Cache\WDB\[language]\ directory, since I highly suspect the uploader is crashing when reading one of those.

    Please send them via mail to slartie@gmx.net - thanks in advance!

  34. Bryan says:

    Tried it just now on my 2 vista machines, haven't changed anything recently. Both updated just fine. Whatever the problem was seemed to go away....weird...

    If it happens again, I'll get in contact with you.

    Thanks for making this great addon! :)

  35. JD3K says:

    with last updates i cant open options :S is there no options menu now??

  36. humfras says:

    Try the following:

    Menu (ESC)
    Interface (button)
    Addons (page)
    Mobmap (entry)
