Is there a guide anywhere on how to update mods for v0.15?

So far I've updated my mods so that the info.json file refers to the new factorio version and base, and changed the name of the folder so that it matches the version in info.jsoon.
On starting up factorio, I get this error message.

Clicking the left and middle buttons makes the game restart but the same error appears. The only way I can get rid of the message is to empty the mods folder and restart the game.

The error message indicates that the base mod was disabled, it's not connected to your mod.
The Disable all mods button also disables the base mod, this should be fixed for 0.15.3. But once you're in that state the only way to get rid of it is to enable the base mod again by modifying or deleting the mod-list.json file.

Thanks for the response, but that's not the reason. Base is always true in mod-list.json . The error message appears when factorio starts and my mod is enabled, and stops when i edit mod-list.json to disable it.

I just saw the following topic:
viewtopic.php?f=7&t=45051
It's the same issue there, the "No map settings instance" error instead of the actual mod error. apriori mentioned that the actual issue was mentioned in the log file, you could check that.

Thanks. Yep it's just a bad error message. There is an error message for my mod in the log file. Why on earth did I not think to look in there :facepalm:
