Why does adding a Bar in a differential equation cause all these errors?
The line in question:
B &= diffp* { f(x, Bar{mu}) } { Bar{mu} } { x_{eq}, Bar{mu}_{eq} }
The second Bar{mu} (bolded for clarity) seems to throw everything awry. Omitting the Bar (just having '{ mu }') works just fine, everything compiles with no errors and displays as expected. Including the Bar gives me 44 errors, the first few of which would suggest I forgot a '}', but I've checked and triple checked, and I can find no missing or mismatched brackets.
I'm guessing there's some quirk of diffp* that's causing this, but it's what I've used everywhere else in the document, and I'd rather not have to go back and change them all to frac for consistency. So how do I get a bar on the bottom with diffp*, and why is my way incorrect?
EDIT: diffp* comes from the package esdiff.
A full example doc:
documentclass[12pt]{extarticle}
usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
usepackage{cite}
usepackage{amsmath}
usepackage{esdiff}
usepackage{ amssymb }
begin{document}
begin{align*}
A &= diffp*{f(x,bar{mu})}{x}{x_{eq},Bar{mu}_{eq}}\
B &= diffp* {f(x, Bar{mu})} {Bar{mu}} {x_{eq},Bar{mu}_{eq}}
end{align*}
end{document}

You seem to have missed out the {} of one argument, but some failing in the diffp macro requires it to be doubled.

The problem comes from the second equation B &= diffp* {f(x, Bar{mu})} {Bar{mu}} {x_{eq},Bar{mu}_{eq}}. The second argument Bar{mu} should be in parenthesis, ie, {Bar{mu}}. So, second equation should be B &= diffp* {f(x, Bar{mu})} {{Bar{mu}}} {x_{eq},Bar{mu}_{eq}}
