getting error trying to upload data

[lothie]

I'm getting the following error trying to upload my Wowthing_Collector.lua: No valid characters in data.

It always worked before this week...

Further data: I deleted and reinstalled the wowthing_collector, no change. I took a look at the file and I can see it's pretty much empty. I just don't know WHY since it was working fine till last week, and nothing's changed (well, aside from other addons updating).

Here's the file contents:

WWTCSaved = { ["toys"] = { }, ["guilds"] = { }, ["version"] = 11, ["heirlooms"] = { }, ["chars"] = { }, }

So clearly the addon isn't working. I'm not getting any errors but it's possible I have something turned off that would normally show errors so I'll keep playing.

For some reason, this resolved itself, without my actually changing anything. I have no idea why the data file was blank but...it's fine now.
