So, I've been annoyingly trying to work with LuaSockets2.0.2, and when I try to use it, I get the following error:



lua5.1: /media/pi/Cruzer/Lua/flywheels.lua:7: module 'luasocket.c' not       found:

stack traceback:

/media/pi/Cruzer/Lua/flywheels.lua:7: in main chunk

Running it with only Lua gives me the same problem. I read through the LuaSocket documentation, checked over my third-edition Lua book, and tried to do a handful of other things, but I didn't get any different results.



I'm trying to make something that will allow me to send a TCP message to an IP to first see if it's up, and second, see if it will send back data, as it's for an experiment/project thing I'm doing. I'm also using a Raspberry Pi 2+.



I understand that it says it's missing these Lua files. local socket = require("sockets") gives me a similar error, and trying require("socket") or require("sockets.lua") all still give me an error. Nothing currently appears to work, so what should I do?
