FATAL ERROR (shutting down): WRITE_SHORT called with no active message

I've changed the way of original 'Colored Flashbangs' plugin by v3x.

It works fine under windows. But under linux, I always get this error when someone/bot connects the server :

Code:

FATAL ERROR (shutting down): WRITE_SHORT called with no active message

Code:

    public plugin_init()
    {
        register_plugin( Plugin, Version, Author );

        register_message( get_user_msgid( "ScreenFade" ), "m_ScreenFade" );
    }

    public m_ScreenFade( msg_id, msg_type, msg_entity )
    {
        if ( is_user_bot( msg_entity ) )
            return;

        if ( get_msg_arg_int( 4 ) != 255 || get_msg_arg_int( 5 ) != 255 || get_msg_arg_int( 6 ) != 255 )
            return;

        set_msg_arg_int( 4, ARG_BYTE, random_num( 1, 255 ) );
        set_msg_arg_int( 5, ARG_BYTE, random_num( 1, 255 ) );
        set_msg_arg_int( 6, ARG_BYTE, random_num( 1, 255 ) );
    }

I really don't get why it's crashing only under linux.

( I've tested without others plugins )

Thanks in advance.

This just works fine for me :

PHP Code:


		
			
/* AMX Mod X Plugin
* 
* (c) Copyright 2008, ConnorMcLeod 
* This file is provided as is (no warranties).

#include <amxmodx>
// #include <fakemeta>

public plugin_init()
{
    register_plugin("Colored FlashBang", "0.1", "ConnorMcLeod")
    register_message(get_user_msgid("ScreenFade"), "Hook_ScreenFade")
}

public Hook_ScreenFade(osef, MSG_Type, msg_ent)
{
    if(MSG_Type != MSG_ONE)
    {
        _log("Mauvais MSG_Type = %d", MSG_Type)
        return
    }
    static argsnum
    argsnum = get_msg_args()
    if(argsnum != 7)
    {
        _log("argsnum = %d", argsnum)
        return
    }
    
    static Float:fOrigin[3]
    get_msg_origin(fOrigin)
    if(fOrigin[0] || fOrigin[1] || fOrigin[2])
    {
        _log("Origine non nulle <%f><%f><%f>", fOrigin[0], fOrigin[1], fOrigin[2])
        return
    }

    if( get_msg_arg_int(4) != 255 || get_msg_arg_int(5) != 255 || get_msg_arg_int(6) != 255 )
        return
    
    static iAlpha
    iAlpha = get_msg_arg_int(7)
    if(iAlpha != 200 && iAlpha != 255)
        return

    set_msg_arg_int(4, 0, random_num(1,255))
    set_msg_arg_int(5, 0, random_num(1,255))
    set_msg_arg_int(6, 0, random_num(1,255))
}

_log(const string[], any:...)
{
    static const szLogfile[] = "ColFlash.log"
    static szMessage[256]
    if(read_argc())
    {
        vformat(szMessage, 255, string, 2)
        log_to_file(szLogfile, szMessage)
    }
    else
    {
        log_to_file(szLogfile, string)
    }
}

Also :

Code:

if ( get_msg_arg_int( 4 ) != 255 && get_msg_arg_int( 5 ) != 255 && get_msg_arg_int( 6 ) != 255 )

should be :

Code:

if ( get_msg_arg_int( 4 ) != 255 || get_msg_arg_int( 5 ) != 255 || get_msg_arg_int( 6 ) != 255 )

Boulet :down:

Re: FATAL ERROR (shutting down): WRITE_SHORT called with no active message

Even with your code, it still crashes my server. ( cs 1.6 )

Re: FATAL ERROR (shutting down): WRITE_SHORT called with no active message

Tested on cz and 1.6, works :D
I think filters are useless.

Re: FATAL ERROR (shutting down): WRITE_SHORT called with no active message

After some tests, it appears that AXN ( metamod plugin ) is causing some problems. It shouldn't.

Without AXN, the plugin works fine under linux now. I will try to figure out why.

EDIT : In fact it crashes unders windows too. I've forgot to install AXN. xD.

Re: FATAL ERROR (shutting down): WRITE_SHORT called with no active message

I'm getting the exact same error and the exact same circumstances too, but I get them when I try to run any version of zombie plague or hide'n'seek (any version, I've tried multiple). Any help would be appreciated :)
