[FIXED] Error in server_playerDied.sqf

[gernika]

what is that error?

0:10:59 Error in expression <playerName];
} else {
if (_sourceWeapon == "") then {_sourceWeapon = "unknown we>
 0:10:59   Error position: <== "") then {_sourceWeapon = "unknown we>
 0:10:59   Error ==: Type Array, expected Number,String,Object,Side,Group,Text,Config entry,Display (dialog),Control,Team member,Task,Location
 0:10:59 File z\addons\dayz_server\compile\server_playerDied.sqf, line 49

im using the default 1.6.2 server_playerDied.sqf

// DEATH MESSAGES
_suicide = ((_sourceName == _playerName) or (_method == "suicide"));

if (_method in ["explosion","melee","shot","shothead","shotheavy","suicide"] && !(_method == "explosion" && (_suicide or _sourceName == "unknown"))) then {
	if (_suicide) then {
		_message = ["suicide",_playerName];
	} else {
		if (_sourceWeapon == "") then {_sourceWeapon = "unknown weapon";};/////////////////LINE 49
		_message = ["killed",_playerName,_sourceName,_sourceWeapon,_distance];
		// Store death messages to allow viewing at message board in trader citys.
		PlayerDeaths set [count PlayerDeaths,[_playerName,_sourceName,_sourceWeapon,_distance,ServerCurrentTime]];
	};
} else {
	// No source name, distance or weapon needed: "%1 died from %2" str_death_%1 (see stringtable)
	// Possible methods: ["bled","combatlog","crash","crushed","dehyd","eject","fall","starve","sick","rad","runover","unknown","zombie"]
	_message = ["died",_playerName,_method];
};

 

my custom configVariables.sqf

// Death Messages
DZE_DeathMsgChat = "none"; //"none","global","side","system" Display death messages in selected chat channel.
DZE_DeathMsgDynamicText = true; // Display death messages as dynamicText in the top left with weapon icons.
DZE_DeathMsgRolling = false; // Display death messages as rolling messages in bottom center of screen.
DZE_DeathScreen = true; // True=Use Epoch death screen (Trade city obituaries have been amended) False=Use DayZ death screen (You are dead)

I'm guessing your player_death you are using is still from 1.0.6.1 since we no longer send the sourceWeapon as an array: https://github.com/EpochModTeam/DayZ-Epoch/commit/c671cf96614405723bff0bfc737292eac9feb449#diff-a92a5523c7a552460361786994ab777f
