The error is basically that a variable is 'nil'. I figure it's my job to track down why -- the code is long and boring and sometimes complicated. I just thought if there's been some change in how parameters are passed or strings handled. A typical use would be
\defineschedule[test][sched={M--Th 8.05a--9:20,1:45--2:30}]
The 'sched' is parsed to {day, interval = {start, stop}} pairs and stored in a table. It seems the interval table is nil now, but it used to work. Here's the actual error:
! LuaTeX error [string "\directlua "]:529: attempt to index field '?' (a nil value) stack traceback: [string "\directlua "]:529: in function 'dotablerow' [string "\directlua "]:658: in function 'tablefromschedule' [string "\directlua "]:1: in main chunk.

I thought something must have changed, since nothing has changed in the syllabus file or the module file, since a couple of months ago. If nothing occurs to anyone, I'll just have to trace it down. Thanks in any case, whether you can think of something or not.
we moved from lua 5.1 to lua 5.2 so maybe you do something very 5.1-ish ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | voip: 087 875 68 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
