I found my answer: needed to link up another location in the lua config: <param name="script-directory" value="/usr/share/lua/5.1/?.lua"/> On Mon, Nov 25, 2013 at 6:04 PM, Neil Patel <neilp@cs.stanford.edu> wrote:
Hi All,
I have FS 1.2 stable installed on fresh Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. I installed lua and lua socket libraries from package:
# apt-get install lua5.1 liblua5.1-socket-dev liblua5.1-socket2
This installed socket module in /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/lua/5.1/, which I added as a module directory in lua.conf.xml.
When I attempt to run the command "require 'socket.http'" in a lua script within FS, I get this error:
2013-11-25 10:14:38.394321 [ERR] mod_lua.cpp:199 /usr/local/freeswitch/scripts/test.lua:27: module 'socket.http' not found: no field package.preload['socket.http'] no file './socket/http.lua' no file '/usr/local/share/lua/5.1/socket/http.lua' no file '/usr/local/share/lua/5.1/socket/http/init.lua' no file '/usr/local/lib/lua/5.1/socket/http.lua' no file '/usr/local/lib/lua/5.1/socket/http/init.lua' no file '/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/lua/5.1/socket/http.so' no file '/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/lua/5.1/socket.so' stack traceback: [C]: in function 'require'
It's looking for http.so; however in the socket module library there are only the files core.so and unix.so
When I run lua interpreter from terminal and try the same require command, it works without complaint:
root@server:~# lua Lua 5.1.4 Copyright (C) 1994-2008 Lua.org, PUC-Rio
require "socket.http";
So why is FS' lua complaining about a luasocket library that standard lua isn't, and how do I deal with it?
Thanks, Neil
