Cannot find Error logs.....

Help all, I am having an error pop up upon loggon, it lsts every addon I have and it only shows clipped info. I have gone through each and every file folder on my comp in the WOW files and cannot locate the error logs to see what is up with which one. I would like to find this log so that I might post the error log to the propper addon comments so that others might help me...

Oh, my...I sound so lost. Well, I guess I am. Thanks Guys n' Gals...

There is no error log per say. I would get swatter or bugstack and use that to trace your error. Alternatively you could screenshot the error and post it here.

I am not familiar with how that is done... I can highlight it but when I right click to copy it offers no choices just un-highlights...

swatter saves errors in WTF\Account\<youracc>\SavedVariables\!Swatter.lua

optional to reopen the error box you can use /swatter show

There is a folder called errors if wow generated a error it will have it in there. just open the warcraft folder click on errors and open the file with the proper date with a text editor

the problem isnt with every one of your addons, for error reporting, it lists every addon you have so players or GMs can help debug if there is a known issue with something.

The first 8 lines of the error log are all that are important. Get the error again, and highlight everything and then hit Ctrl + C to copy it. Then come paste it here.
