Corona App42 API - App42-LeaderBoard-Sample crashes

Question

I am trying to run your Coroa SDK sample app called App42 Leaderboard sample. When I compile and run and type in a username and password and touch 'login' it crashes with the error messages below.

2014-09-16 19:05:05.164 Corona Simulator[5234:707] Runtime error

/Users/errolsimon/Documents/Corona Apps/App42-LeaderBoard-Sample/App42-Lua-API/Util.lua:159: attempt to call field 'gsub' (a nil value)

stack traceback:

/Users/errolsimon/Documents/Corona Apps/App42-LeaderBoard-Sample/App42-Lua-API/Util.lua:159: in function 'trim'

/Users/errolsimon/Documents/Corona Apps/App42-LeaderBoard-Sample/login.lua:167: in function '_onEvent'

?: in function '?'

?: in function <?:1381>

?: in function <?:221>

Answer 1

I also tried it on an actual iPad device and I get the same error message in the console log so this is not related to the Corona simulator.

Hello Simon,

Change the input parameter in authenticate function with "loginNameField"  with "loginUserNameTextField" and "loginPasswordField" with "loginPassTextField" and it will works. I have also faced the same issue and it will work for me.
