For some reason, I can't get LSLua to load my script in correctly. When I tell it to look into this path:

C:\LiteStep\themes\Lock.Solid-0.2\config\lua\

I get an error saying that:

C:\iteStep\themes\Lock.Solid-0.2\config\lua\... was not found.
(Notice the missing L in Litestep)

But if I change it to:

C:\LLiteStep\themes\Lock.Solid-0.2\config\lua\

I get this error:

C:\LLiteStep\themes\Lock.Solid-0.2\config\lua\... was not found.
(Notice the L is no longer missing)

Is there something I am missing about how LSlua parses it's paths? Like some escape sequence or something?

Thanks,

tried "$ConfigDir$lua\" ???

I think you are missing quotes.. although there is no spaces in the path... so it shouldnt matter...

How are you telling it to look there? As in, copy and past some config text. "$LuaDir$" should be enough...

Ok, here's the relevant code:

In lua.rc:
LuaDir "$ConfigDir$lua\"
*LuaFile "$luaDir$lua.lua"

In theme.rc:
include "$ConfigDir$lua.rc"
*NetLoadModule lslua-0.4.3.1 load lslua.dll "" LUA Scripting

Let me know if there's anything else that you need.

Thanks

I guess I'll clarify that the code I posted was the original code giving me the "C:\iteStep\themes\Lock.Solid-0.2\config\lua\... was not found." error. I thought maybe there was something wrong with the $ConfigDir$ variable, so I typed the whole path out (as I did in my first post) and got the same problem.

So, the code I just posted, when run, gives me the
"C:\iteStep\themes\Lock.Solid-0.2\config\lua\lua.lua was not found."
error. (With the strange missing L).

Well, configdir is probably defined with a trailing slash "\\\", whereas your LuaDir is not (at least not as posted here). It ought to be

LuaDir "$ConfigDir$lua\\\"

unless I'm mistaken. Update: Apparently the forum eats single backslashes, so mine didn't appear originally either. So maybe that isn't the problem. =)


For your *NetLoadModule line, if that stuff on the end ("" LUA scripting) is a comment, it needs to be separated from the actual command by a ";" - the LS comment character. Otherwise, well, I dunno what it might screw up.

Yeah, I thought that extra stuff on the end was somewhat weird too - but I'm working with someone else's theme and that's how they did it. It doesn't appear to be causing any problems - I get the same error without it.

Concerning the backslash, yeah, I have one there, it must have just been eaten. The problem I still end up getting is that missing L after the "C:\".

I may just reinstall Litestep - the same theme seems to run fine on my other computer. Perhaps something in the Litestep config got a little messed up.
