Auctioneer not working

Cannot post item due to confirmation timeout.

If I have the addon enabled, I am unable to post any auction, not even if I am trying to use the wow ah tabs. Is anyone else having this problem? I had to switch to auctionator which has far less options and info.

Auctioneer 4.4.1070, Sept 29, 2024 is the latest on curse.

Switching to TradeSkillMaster is easy and it works just fine at its base functions without having to watch any tutorials.

I am experiencing the same issue but unfortunately I do not currently have a solution for you.

I was able to resolve the post timeout issue by going to the following file:

\World of Warcraft_classic_era_\Interface\AddOns\Auc-Advanced\CorePost.lua

and chaning line 1266 from:

PostAuction(request.bid, request.buy, request.duration, request.count, request.stacks )

to

PostAuction(request.bid, request.buy, request.duration, request.count, request.stacks, confirmation )

How did you open the .lua file and save it?

Open it as a text file then save after editing

Damn, even changing the file info didn’t fix mine. It’s saying the error is with Stubby, which is a requirement for auctioneer. I’m at loss with this one!

I had to also change this line in the CoreScan.lua file
line 2943
return private.Hook.PostAuction(minBid, buyoutPrice, runTime, stackSize, numStacks, …)
To
return private.Hook.PostAuction(minBid,buyoutPrice, runTime, stackSize, numStacks, true, …)

Just tried both of these changes and had a bunch of errors. Make sure if you’re making these changes in the CoreScan.lua file, that your using … (3 separate dots/full stops) not an …

Also added a space in-between “minBid,buyoutPrice”. Don’t know lua so don’t know if this part is actually needed.

Anyway fixed code that can actually be copied in because it’s formatted text and doesn’t mess with the … -

return private.Hook.PostAuction(minBid, buyoutPrice, runTime, stackSize, numStacks, true, ...)

Yeah I had to change that also… works now :slight_smile: two lines updated

Same here! Thank you! I love this addon and now I can use it correctly.

The two aforementioned chanes fixed it for me, thanks guys! :smiley:

Thank you!

Thank you. After changing both lines of code in notepad (control+f and search makes it easy for those that don’t know), Auctioneer is working again. Thank you and Zaider once again!

tsm bis anyway

Thank you for this. That’s was the last bit of info I needed. Thank goodness I understand coding. You GOT to be specific, otherwise it won’t work. Thanks again!

Brooooo.
You are the man. changing BOTH LINES and using your “copied formatted text” got it working perfectly no issues!
This is my fave mod in wow so yah, thanks again!
