Stupid Unexpected Symbol Error

I made a program to check the floppy disk for "door1" on the card for the "password". it was working before but I must have accidentally changed something and I can't figure it out. here is my code…

password = “door1”
debug_char = "0"
term.clear()
function mainLoop()
while(true) do
event, driveSide = os.pullEventRaw()
if(event=="disk" and driveSide) then
path = disk.getMountPath(driveSide)
if(path) then
path = path.."/access"
file = fs.exists(path) and io.open(path, "r") or nil
end
disk.eject(driveSide)
if(file and file:read()==password) then
rs.setOutput("left", true)
sleep(3)
rs.setOutput("left", false)
end
if(file) then file:close() file = nil end
elseif(debug_char and event=="char" and driveSide==debug_char) then return("break") end
end
end
rs.setOutput("left", false)
sfile = io.open("/startup", "w")
sfile:write('shell.run("keycard")')
sfile:close()
repeat
ok, err, val = pcall(mainLoop)
if(not ok and err) then
if(err=="Terminated") then print ("Access denied.")
else
print(err)
end
end
until(ok and err=="break")

If you can help me solve this problem that would be great.

Oh my what an ugly piece of code. USE CODE TAGS!

Reading it should also tell you to give us the entire error message. The number is not something random, and should not be left out.

I just quickly looked at it, but I think file:read() should be file:readAll(). I could be wrong.

You are indeed wrong. Handle:read() is used with io-opened file handles, while handle.readAll() is used with fs-opened file handles.

Okay. I don't use io very often, thank you for the correction.

The error is the result of his weird string declaration lol.

“door1”

Chances are this guy is long gone though, so probably dosen't matter :P/>
