[Bug] LibDogTag-Unit-3.0\Categories\TooltipScanning.lua:121: attempt to call field 'IterateFactions' (a nil value)

[Wulfig]

TMW v9.0.5 Hi, Since the new update of both WoW and TMW, TMW does not run upon logging in. I have to type /tmw to kick it into life.

Thanks

Unfortunately this is almost no information for me to go off of. Please enable Lua error alerts in WoW (or install an addon to capture and display them like BugGrabber+BugSack) and post and TMW-related errors you're getting.

Please do not ignore the issue template that is provided when you create a new issue. The questions and sections within it provide me with essential information to be able to diagnose and resolve your issue. If you do not include this information, there is little I can do to help you.

Also, please attach your TMW settings file. This file can be found in WoW's installation location, under World Of Warcraft\_retail_\WTF\Account\<your account name>\SavedVariables\TellMeWhen.lua.

Sorry, I'm new to this bug reporting, and the template didn't ask me any questions I could answer.

The lua errors at the start are:

And the TMW lua settings are:- TellMeWhen.lua.txt

As a workaround for now, try updating Threat Plates. According to its release notes, it no longer embeds LDT, but from your error message I can tell that your installed version is doing just that.

This is now fixed in the version of LDT bundled with TMW 9.0.6.
