--- error: Spell.load: No such file or directory

Yesterday while playing my main, Lich decided to stop running ;waggle correctly with the following error:

--- Lich: waggle active.

--- error: Spell.load: No such file or directory - C:/Users/Downloads/lich-4.3.2/lich/scripts/spell-list.xml

--- error: Spell.load: No such file or directory - C:/Users/Downloads/lich-4.3.2/lich/scripts/spell-list.xml

[waggle: nothing to do]

--- Lich: waggle has exited.

;waggle also didn't "answer" other peoples' waggle requests properly either, and I also noticed the handy little red circle on the ;narost maps was not tracking my movements... but I decided to ignore it and investigate it later.

Then today I logged in a different character and the spell-list.xml issue really got under Lich's skin because it spammed me with the following error:

--- error: Spell.load: No such file or directory - C:/Users/Downloads/lich-4.3.2/lich/scripts/spell-list.xml
--- error: Spell.load: No such file or directory - C:/Users/Downloads/lich-4.3.2/lich/scripts/spell-list.xml
--- error: Spell.load: No such file or directory - C:/Users/Downloads/lich-4.3.2/lich/scripts/spell-list.xml
--- error: Spell.load: No such file or directory - C:/Users/Downloads/lich-4.3.2/lich/scripts/spell-list.xml
--- error: Spell.load: No such file or directory - C:/Users/Downloads/lich-4.3.2/lich/scripts/spell-list.xml

... and seemed perfectly content to spam this error with no linebreaks until the end of time. So, I went to the specified directory, and lo and behold that file is clearly present. I opened it and there's a lot of info about spells which I expected...

I haven't updated lich or any scripts lately, or made any sweeping changes to my computer.
...But I have no idea where to go from here.... Help?

Are you sure that the file you found was spell-list.xml and not spell-list.xml.txt?

[GS4-Seomanthe]

It is spell-list.xml.txt! I had to unhide the file extensions... Do I just rename the file and remove the .txt?

How would it have become a .txt?

[Tillmen]

No, don't rename it. Get spell-list.xml from the repository. And you probably also need to ;updater add updater

[GS4-Seomanthe]

Awesome, thank you so much Tillmen =)

Free bump on the thread. I had the same issue logging in on another computer. Downloading spell-list.xml from the repo worked like a charm!
