A socket problem (loops). #186423 22/09/07 02:59 PM

XTZGZoReX X	So I finally made my own socket script. There's just one problem. During the on SOCKREAD part it loops almost endlessly. Here's the script: Quote: alias gzpupdate { sockopen gzpupdate gamerzplanet.net 80 } on :sockopen:gzpupdate: { sockwrite -n $sockname GET /forums/staff/201457-gamerzplanet-channel-management-script.html HTTP/1.1 sockwrite -n $sockname Host: gamerzplanet.net $+ $crlf $+ $crlf } on :sockread:gzpupdate: { if ( $sockerr ) { echo -a Error connecting to update page! Try again later or check your connection. halt } else { var %gzpupdate sockread %gzpupdate if ( CurVer1.3 iswm %gzpupdate ) { echo -a A new version is available! Download it at http://www.gamerzplanet.net/forums/staff/201457-gamerzplanet-channel-management-script.html ASAP! else { echo -a No new version of the script is available. sockclose gzpupdate halt } } } } The connection runs fine but I just don't get why it does these loops. Edit: You might not be able to directly use the socket script since the area it connects to is restriced. Thanks in advance. Last edited by XTZGZoReX; 22/09/07 03:05 PM.

Welcome to the boards. That aside, I haven't tested your script as you said it's restricted. Looking through your code though, here in particular: Code: if ( CurVer1.3 iswm %gzpupdate ) { echo -a A new version is available! Download it at http://www.gamerzplanet.net/forums/staff/201457-gamerzplanet-channel-management-script.html ASAP! } else { echo -a No new version of the script is available. sockclose gzpupdate halt } You are missing a bracket inbetween the echo command and else statement. As I said I can't test it but that may stop the continuous looping. Edit: I should have read Riamus2's post carefully he mentioned about the brackets, I started reading from the code tags part I guess. Sorry Riamus2!
