Uploading CharacterProfiler.LUA

by **Cococalm** » Mon Aug 11, 2008 4:13 am

hello all;

Today I tried to upload my profiles from the CharacterProfiler.lua file to my guild WoWRoster.

I have 2 characters, both in the same guild and server. However, having scrupulously followed the instructions and for both characters, the upload does ony half the job - one character uploads fine but the other is "not accepted" .

Can anyone help me with this problem please.

Many thanks

Have you saved a character profile 'in game' for the toon that isnt updating?
Try that, need to save/scan profile for each toon to create saved data, otherwise it cant save Talents, Trades, pets etc...
Dont know if this helps or not but worth asking I felt. Cheers :thumleft:

yes, all my toons were saved in game - I have also deleted the file CharacterProfiler.LUA from the directory because I was told that it auto loads. I then turned the PC off and then rebooted.

I then went back in game and saved only the toon that is being refused - following the procedure scrupulously - and still, upon the upload to Guild - the same toon profile is not accepted ....

We are currently experiencing this issue with our guild also.

I go into each character, press save in the Character interface...repeat...exit the game completely...then upload data and all we get is:

Code: Select all: Update Log: Parsing files * Parsed CharacterProfiler in 0.27 seconds * Parsed PvPLog in 0.01 seconds Processing Files

Go check - and nothing has been updated.

Check the characterprofiler.lua and the character data is in there.

How are you all trying to upload/update the information to the roster?

Are you using UniUploader, if so are you making sure to select the other char there (if your on multiple accounts that is)?

If you are using UniUploader, what happens if you try using the rosters upload/update webpage for your character information?

If your not using UniUploader, give that a try and see what happens.

Oh, and what mode are you running WoW in? If your using Vista (and possibly XP) it may not be saving your character info and other addon info into the installed WoW area. If this is the case you'll have to start launching wow in Administrator mode instead. Then it will store the addons info into the installed wow area properly and thus the uploader can update the character info properly, :-)

Hello all ....

The solution to this problem came quite by surprise and I have to give all the credit to my GUILD MASTER - SHARAAK - Lightbringer.

the problem was simply this. The guild has the data base of characters and a new member into a guild has to be "updated" into the guild roster before the upload of the WoWRoster profile can be done.

My toon had been accidentally removed from the guild before we joined WoWRoster and I had not noticed this as I was levelling another toon.

So there you are .... the problem is solved. Thank you SHARAAK for your bright spark idea.
