Can someone help me with my error at the FS api?

code:
http://pastebin.com/huQQYWLc

thanks in advance


edit: error is : MikkAPI:414:attempt to call nil

What is the error you are getting?

What line does the error appear on?

Edit:
@ninja
the error is the name of the paste

The name of the paste?

Yes, but it should say
programname:line attempted to call Nil?

Its a API ?

then it will be
apiname:line etc.
there should be a number in the error, just tell me that number!

It looks like he silently edited his original post with the error and didn't mention it to anyone.

I'm not familiar with that API at all, so I can not help. Sorry.

@OP
Wait, why did you just repost this

@dissy the code he supplied IS the API…

Its a api i made myself, but this "PassServer" is the only thing that does not work, in the fs systems… Thats my real problem… But. I have tried a lot of new things, but nothing works… Thanks for quick response! Anyway

you've set it to find the directory local it should not have local their cuase you are telling it to look for the file within the program its self

like here

					    if not fs.exists("PdsWaid") then
							    fileCheck = fs.open("PdsWaid", "w")
									    for i, k in ipairs(Passwords) do
											    fileCheck.writeLine(Passwords[k])
									    end
							    fileCheck.close()	 
					    elseif fs.exists("PdsWaid") then
							    local fileRead = fs.open("PdsWaid", "r")

look at filecheck then at fileread it should not have a local and it can't have a local

I will try that ASAP thanks :-D

Put some debugging prints around the area, because I'm pretty sure the error is not actually line 414 in the posted script.

ChunLing. You have right.. I tested it with making some emptty lines, and it still says 414 . But its still hard to think, what i've done wrong.

You might be posting the bios line rather than the script line. It doesn't look like that's what you're doing, but it's hard to explain how the error line could be staying the same despite you changing the line counts before the error line.

But can you try to explain that?

thanks

I can't explain how the error line could possibly be the same after changing the line counts, no.

However, it's possible that the file getting run isn't the file that you've edited. If you have more than one copy of MikkAPI on the computer you're using to test it, then the one that got loaded last should be the one that you're editing.

Okay..

But i only have 1 MikkAPI, and thats for ccemu
so i really dont know whats wrong. But can you then give a example, based on your code? (Like you will make a new PassServer, and then if that works?)

thanks…

Sorry, I've been sick the last couple of days.

Looking over the PassServer function, there are a few substantial oddities and some problems. Most significant is that you don't end the function. You reset Passwords and IDS to empty tables on calling this function, and I doubt that's desired behavior. You've stored and replaced os.pullEvent as though you were going to restore it later, but you don't.
