foreverphk Sun, 26 Oct 2008 11:34:33I also encountered this error. After I uninstalled Cartographer_Quests, Cartographer_QuestObjectives, Cartographer_Vendors, Cartographer_Data Cartographer_MailBox, the error no longer occurs now.
Currently I only have Cartographer_Fishing, Cartographer_Herbalism, Cartographer_Mining and Cartographer_QuestInfo installed.

jmlane1987 Tue, 21 Oct 2008 22:16:49Good news: I don't get this error anymore (had nothing to do with Fubar_ToFu for me: I do not have, nor have I ever had, that addon installed) with HEAD.
Removing WTF directory cleared the error in HEAD.
Edit: Removed link and info about unrelated and invalid bug report. Still learning the ropes with Lua and addons. Thanks for your patience!

UKCougar Tue, 21 Oct 2008 21:31:19I've managed to reproduce this reliably. It occurs when you also have Fubar_ToFu loaded. Remove ToFu and the problem goes away. Clearing out saved variables for both of these mods makes no difference.
Running Cartographer v2.3.1 r2268 and Fubar_ToFu r72785.12 for reference.
