Having trouble installing addons?

[Seerah]

My guess is that you told WAU to download WITHOUT externals and you do not have the libraries needed to run your addons. You also probably have error reporting turned off in Interface Options (I don't recall if it's off by default).

Go back to WAU and it's preferences, make sure default mode is WITH externals, and then reinstall all addons WITH externals.

I'm not so sure about that Seerah. I carried out my own complete reinstall via WAU not that long ago WITHOUT externals and the appropriate libraries downloaded and installed right along side. Does the same on updates as far as I can tell. At least for me it does.

It does sound like there are no libraries there though, so I would go along with what Seerah says.

You had "Automatic Dependency Download" enabled.

I've done everything by the book to get my auctioneer add-on and it's supposed to work but it says it won't work because of missing dependincies!
The missing dependincies are: EhnToolTip and Stubby.
Could somebody guide me towards the solution?

Yes simple download the full pack with dependencies directly from the homepage

http://www.auctioneeraddon.com/dl/?d...0.PRE.3262.zip

This what I've done:

- Downloaded program from requested link
- Moved downloaded files from bitcomet to desktop
- Extracted zip files (On desktop)
- Copied extracted files and moved to WoW add-ons folder

and still having issue? majke sure you have EnhTooltip and Stubby folders inside your wow\interface\addons\* dir, and on the characters selection page click the addon button and make sure both are checked nor maybe you have an ingame management addon like ACP preventing them to load ?

[tiph49]

I have all the requirements but now the add-ons button at character selection is gone!

[Mera]

your problem must be linked to that error because the add-ons button must be there on the characters selection page, bottom corner left exactly. If I remember the add-on button does not display if 0 addons are detected, are you sure you have dirs that loooks like this with auctioneer?

D:\Games\World of Warcraft\Interface\AddOns\Auc-Advanced\*all files
D:\Games\World of Warcraft\Interface\AddOns\EnhTooltip\*all files
D:\Games\World of Warcraft\Interface\AddOns\Stubby\*all files

[tiph49]

This is an example of EhnToolTip:
C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\Interface\AddOns\AuctioneerAdvancedSuite-5.0.PRE.3262\EnhTooltip
Stubby is the same...

lol and you still dont see what is wrong ? it must be

C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\Interface\AddOns\EnhTooltip

This is bcuz of the AuctioneerAdvancedSuite-5.0.PRE.3262 folder which has nothing to do there it fails to detects

you must have something that looks like this

C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\Interface\AddOns\Auc-Advanced
C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\Interface\AddOns\Auc-ScanData
C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\Interface\AddOns\BeanCounter
C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\Interface\AddOns\EnhTooltip
C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\Interface\AddOns\Stubby
etc

the same for any addon, you should always leave the directory the mod author created to the base C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\Interface\AddOns\, you shouldn't add extra folders up to this. I guess AuctioneerAdvancedSuite-5.0.PRE.3262 has been created by your file extractor which often auto create folder based on the archive name.

[tiph49]

Oh...
Could you give me bit-by-bit instructions to get it working?
I'm not great with computers...

[Mera]

you can see that on curse.Com , look for example my addon page, at the middle where there is the description of my addon there is a Tab called "Install Guide", this is a standard guide displayed on every addon page on curse to learn how to install addon if that is your first use, look here http://www.curse.com/downloads/details/12253/ , middle screen click "Install Guide" and read carefully each steps.

[Seerah]

There are instructions in the first post of this thread, there is a guide with screenshots in our FAQ linked at the top of every page, and there is a video walkthrough linked in the first post of the thread as well.

[tiph49]

I downloaded the guide and I left it for a day and now that I've come back to it... I don't know how to work the guide!

[tiph49]

-Downloaded files from requested site to bitcomet
-Extracted the files to my desktop
-Opened the files and now I can't read it, I don't know what to do

Huh? I have absolutely no idea what you are saying here. What have you downloaded from where? Link to the page you are trying to download from, please.

[tophero21]

think he means he downloaded directly from the auctioneer site using bitcomet (a program to dl torrents) and has extracted the zip file to his desktop.

since I don't use auctioneer, I can't say exactly what's in that zip file, but I'm assuming he's extracting everything to a folder named the same thing as the zip file. all he should have to do is go into that folder and grab the auctioneer/stubby/enhtooltip/etc folders and copy them into his addons directory.

[tiph49]

Do I post each file individualy or in the auctioneer file?
