It means that "z = fs.open(sFile, "r")" did not return anything, either because the file doesn't exist, or your gsub pattern isn't doing what you think it's doing.

[Creeper9207]

solved, but now in the client fOutput = fs.open(msgp, "w")
fOutput.write(fdata) is nil

Can't help you if you don't post your client code.
