Attempt to index nil with "Name"

[8ntlers (antlers lol)]

Hi! This is stupid i just posted another form…

I’m making an RNG game yada yada and i got this error in my handler script.

ServerScriptService.AuraHandler:169: attempt to index nil with ‘Name’

the line of code:

warn(“The aura: " … auraName.Name … " was successfully destroyed!”)

the whole script:

local SS = game:GetService("ServerScriptService")

	else

	end
end

	if SoundsConfig[auraname] ~= nil then
		local soundID, volume, distance = SoundsConfig[auraname].SoundID, SoundsConfig[auraname].Volume, SoundsConfig[auraname].Distance

			return true, soundID, volume, distance

	end

@8ntlers

local auraName = auraFolder:FindFirstChildWhichIsA("StringValue")

This call returned nil (so auraName would be nothing), you could probably make another guard clause right below this line to return if auraName wasn’t found:

if not auraName then
    warn("No aura name was found")
    return
end

I mean, yeah it warns me, but now it just doesn’t let me unequip the aura. Let me send a video.

[nidadaqwe (Ada)]

u can cehck workspace->your charactor model->AURA folder, i does the aura really exist

You’re right! it was a misspell in the code thank you so much! have a good day/night everyone!
