I'm creating a dynamic PDF creator using Node and LaTeX, compiling with pdflatex (pdfTeX 3.14159265-2.6-1.40.20).
The problem is that I am attempting to create a dynamic sized table, that can \pagebreak when it overflows the footer, I tried using a lot of table packages such as longtable, longtabu, tabularx, etc.. but I always run into a trouble where it shows me the following message:
! Misplaced \noalign.
\pagebreak ->\noalign
{\ifnum `}=0\fi \@testopt {\LT@no@pgbk -}4
l.702 \end{xltabular}

The weirdest thing is: my .tex DOES GENERATE a PDF file, but it also crashes with the Misplaced error
EDIT 1: providing a better example of my code so we can figure out the problem
Best Answer
The character warnings ar due to a missing comma before
left, the main error is showing longtable's\\defiiion happening ouside a table, the tcolorbox code mus b running it spmewhere in the page foot, as her can't actually be a page break inside th infobox I just locally defind\pagebreakto do nothing.
