I've seen similar errors when developing. They tend to be indicative of other problems which once resolved sorts these errors too. Did you get any other errors?

Also what was happening in the hub when the errors were reported?

[Syphrone-NL]

Cant see any other errors because i get the error of welcome info everytime and want to see welcome info. Maybe something to do with lua 5.1??

[Rincewind]

I run Lua 5.1

You haven't added a new profile have you?

[Syphrone-NL]

no i didnt added a new profile only changed a little bit in the welcome info
