- Tue Dec 27, 2016 10:42 am #60019 I copied and pasted the "MSG URL Usage" example and I'm getting this error:

Error at line 1: Failed to reach end of input expression, likely malformed input
Error at line 1: Syntax error
Error at line 1: Halted

the program is exactly the example:

msgbranch [mybranch]
print "set the branch"
wait

[mybranch]
myColorVar = msgget("color")
print myColorVar
let myReturnMsg = "You Entered " & myColorVar
msgreturn myReturnMsg
wait


I'm using a sonoff device with 1 meg. Is it possible that this command is included in the modules removed due to the shortage in memory? (see the download page for Alpha 3.0 branch)

You were very right, that solved the problem.

Thanks!!!
