Forums Scripts & Popups Error Handling

I make a script like this:



but the script doesn't report anything when the script got any error

what's the problem?

I don't see an error. Put an error in there and it will work...


You should get an unknown operator error from that code.

Sorry, that script just an example

Actually my script is like this:



My greetuser alias sometimes doesn't work, so I want to know what's the error with that alias

Thanks

From what you've shown, it looks to me that the problem is in your greetuser alias. Post that and we might be able to figure out why it sometimes doesn't work.

As a suggestion, you can reduce your script to

The ! in the prefix section of the ON JOIN event means "anyone but me"

Thanks for your suggestion, RusselB

I've found the problem in greetuser alias, but I still want to know why the error handling doesn't work for me?

How to make it works?

You don't see an error because there is no error in the join event.

If the nick is not you it sends info to your greetuser alias.

Where's the error??

Now if you are having trouble with your alias I suggest using echo's to check each line. I obviously dont echo every single line, I usually have an idea where the error is.

I'll start with ...


alias greetuser {

echo -a GREETUSER 1= $1 2= $2 3= $3 etc.

}

This will tell me what the alias is getting for $1-

Or you can simply put an echo in front of line so you can see exactly the information you are getting for that line.
