2.1 Parse error, can't figure out the source.

All my mods seem to be working fine, but I'm getting this one minor error upon UI initialization:
"Error: bad argument #1 to 'strmatch' (string expected, got nil) File: Interface\FrameXML\ChatFrame.lua Line: 872 Count: Infinite
Has anyone else got such an error and able to find out which mod is responsible? I thought it might be ChatMod, as I don't have any other mods that deal with chat frames, but it's not ChatMod. |

Q u o t e: I had this error too, I renamed my addons folder and it got rid of the issues. Simply disabling the mods did not, strange?
Yes, very strange. Can anyone else confirm whether or not disabling addons and/or removing the Interface folder fixes the problem? |

That's great, can you list the macro that shows the problem for this level 1 character? |

Q u o t e: More info:
These macros dos NOT cause the problem:
/castsequence Shred, Maim /castsequence [target=target] Shred, Maim /castsequence [nostance:1] Shred, Maim /castsequence [noharm] Shred, Maim /castsequence [nostance:1,noharm] Shred, Maim
These DO:
/castsequence [stance:1] Shred, Maim /castsequence [harm] Shred, Maim /castsequence [target=target,harm] Shred, Maim /castsequence [stance:1,harm] Shred, Maim /castsequence [stance:1,noharm] Shred, Maim /castsequence [nostance:1,harm] Shred, Maim
Great, I'm testing these out this morning. Thanks! |

Okay, I can reproduce this, thanks! |

Okay, this is fixed for 2.1.2. In the meantime, if you add a semicolon to the end of the macro, that will fix the problem.
Thanks for the great test cases! |
