60 lvls: are you experiencing auto-attack bug?

Subj. First time i've notice this bug more than a month ago - in UBRS my character refuse to auto-attack some mobs in that place (starting from Rend room, and all the way to Drakki, if i remember correctly). It affect both forms - cat and bear, but in bear i wasn't even able to use Maul (its just "Interrupted" all the time), thus making the tanking UBRS almost impossible for me.
I can confirm this for at least 3 full UBRS runs. All the time i was the only one feral in the raid, and no other class experience the same problem.
(and this is not the same bug as "untargettable" mobs in ubrs, this is a completly different story ... but with this 2 conjuncted bugs UBRS is a most annoying place for me)
I haven't face this problem at any other place ... before few days ago i've notice it on Warsong Gulch - i wasn't able to hit a human priest for ~1.5 minutes of "attacking", and all my "Maul" attacks were "Interrupted". Even if the priest was holding still for a 10-15 secs at one place. and i was trying to attack him from different angles\distances.
So i want to know if any other player can confirm this bug, so i will try to report in on bug-tracker (still don't know how, and at which directory it might be reported though :?)

//edit For me, problem was caused by sRaidFrames_Improved addon. There is an option for accurate rangecheck, which is automatically recheck all the raid frames several times per second, and supposed to be used only for healers. When you switch the check to "light" problem should be solved.

I'm having my autoattacks in caster form stop unless I spam right click. I suspect an addon is causing this, but I haven't looked too heavily into it yet. Attacks in feral forms work fine.

I have had this while leveling on mobs around lvl 30, haven't seen the bug for a while. What worked was shift out cast moonfire/rejuv and shift back in. Shifting in and out without a cast did not work. My version of the bug was in cat form, i was able to do special attacks but auto attacks just plain stopped even though auto attack was enabled.

I don't mean to bump an old thread but I am still having this exact issue. Maul keeps getting "locked" and auto-attack keeps randomly dropping. Did you (or anyone else) ever figure out what was causing it?

I'm using start attack macros and no issues here.

For me, it was sRaidFrames_Improved addon. There is an option for accurate rangecheck, which is automatically recheck all the raid frames several times per second, and supposed to be used only for healers. When you switch the check to "light" problem should be solved.

I was trying to kill a Devilsaur, and tried to maul it, but my character would not attack at all. It kept saying it was out of range no matter how close I was. After I died, I was able to attack it the next time around.

Doofhoos! I am using that addon as well. I did exactly as you said and I haven't had the issue since. Thanks a bunch! <3
