[Error] What the actual fuck?

[Percipience]

So, I get the following error upon running my script:

[lua]
[ERROR] RunString:2: unexpected symbol near '<'
1. unknown - RunString:0
[/lua]

I've never seen this error and I have NO clue what the fuck it's trying to say. I have no <'s in my script. I have two files by the way.

What is going on?

I had this error upon using the ScriptEnforcer tool on my script.

The following script is used:

(addons/thirdperson/lua/autorun/server/thirdperson.lua)
[lua]
function ThirdPersonAuth(scriptid, hash, filename, version, additional, ip)
if !scriptid or !hash then return end

filename = filename or ""
version = version or ""
additional = additional or ""
ip = ip or ""

http.Fetch("http://scriptenforcer.net/api.php?0=" .. scriptid .. "&sip=" .. ip .. "&v=" .. version .. "&1=" .. hash .. "&2=" .. GetConVarString("hostport") .. "&file=" .. filename,
function(body, len, headers, code)
if string.len(body) > 0 then
RunString(body)
end
end
)

end
hook.Add("Think", "GetThirdpersonUpdate", function()
ThirdPersonAuth(2230, "Not publicly displaying, just know there's nothing but numbers and a couple letters in these quotes", "thirdperson", 1.0, nil)
hook.Remove("Think", "GetThirdpersonUpdate")
end)
[/lua]

I'll bet you $5 there's some sort of syntax error in the serverside code SE is feeding back into RunString.

Well, see, I never had an error until I added SE. I have no clue what's going on.

Check the code you pasted into SE, or you could always try a debug print of the body returned in the Fetch callback before calling RunString and checking if there are any < symbols anywhere in there

So, now I've fixed it. No errors, however, I try using the script on singleplayer. Everything works, however, it's not tracking it on SE. The script is also still being reviewed. I think that the script being reviewed is the reason, I'm just looking for confirmation.

Could someone confirm this? Or debunk this idea?

Thanks :)

Run

function ThirdPersonAuth(scriptid, hash, filename, version, additional, ip)
    if !scriptid or !hash then return end

    filename = filename or ""
    version = version or ""
    additional = additional or ""
    ip = ip or ""

    http.Fetch("http://scriptenforcer.net/api.php?0=" .. scriptid .. "&sip=" .. ip .. "&v=" .. version .. "&1=" .. hash .. "&2=" .. GetConVarString("hostport") .. "&file=" .. filename, 
        function(body, len, headers, code)
            if string.len(body) > 0 then
                print(body) 
            end
        end
   )

end
hook.Add("Think", "GetThirdpersonUpdate", function()
	ThirdPersonAuth(2230, "Not publicly displaying, just know there's nothing but numbers and a couple letters in these quotes", "thirdperson", 1.0, nil)
	hook.Remove("Think", "GetThirdpersonUpdate")
end)

And see what the response is

The SF API apparently can't read scripts that are under review, I ran into the same issue
