How to read Exception files (Or make a guess at what it is from)
To get a best estimate on the problem mod for lastexception.txt files (Skip step 1 for mods that use S4CL to catch exceptions. i.e. <mod>_exceptions.txt
):
- Replace
<desyncdata>
and
with a new line, so the lines on either side of these are put on their own line. - Locate the bottom of the stacktrace (The semi ugly lines that have
line #
in the middle of each of them) - Look at the error message itself, which is usually at the bottom of the stacktrace.
- If the above did not give an indication as to the cause, locate the last 3-4 lines of the exception stacktrace
- Look within each of those 3-4 lines for something that isn't just generic. (Locate a mod that matches those non-generic pieces of info)
- If you still don't know what the cause is, Pull mods out until the error stops occurring, because it is probably a random mod doing it.
