Hope you can help please as we are trapped between decks lol

Turbo lift program has stopped working since we moved to a new server.
Getting the following error;
parallel :22: Turbo:12: attempt to index ? (a nil value)

Pastebin code is q23XrMff

Your help as always is greatly appreciated!

Maybe you are not allowed to wrap command block in this server, so the command does not exst for the object you created.

Did you change any mods on server change? Got never CC version? Could be open-peripherals?

[Corky_McDuff]

ok, checked with server admin and nothing is restricted and command block use is checked.

I don't believe anything changed when we moved. Not sure how I would check that now.

[MKlegoman357]

Either command blocks are disabled in ComputerCraft.cfg or there is no command block below the computer.

ok, then it must be disabled because there is definitely a block present...it used to work fine also.
I changed the time using the command block, so that worked, but not sure that is a true test.

If you changed it with the computer then yes the api is enabled (commandblocks can be enabled and the api can not be, they are two seperate things). Here is a test to see if it is enabled.

cb = peripheral.wrap(side)
if cb then
  print("Api is enabled")
else
  print("Api is not enabled")
end

Forgot to say you have to replace side with the side the commandblock is on sorry.

[Corky_McDuff]

That's ok, I guessed that and changed it, but that was what I got

It needs quotes too

peripheral.wrap("left") --# Yes

peripheral.wrap(left) --# No

[Corky_McDuff]

Oops, oh yeah.

..and the answer is... API is not enabled.

So, I presume I need to approach my server host to get them to enable command blocks do I?

[Wojbie]

He needs to enable command-blocks API in computercraft config in addition to enabling commands blocks.

[Corky_McDuff]

Ok, I will log a ticket with them. Thank you all for your help!

[Corky_McDuff]

All fixed and working now....thank you all so much for your help!
