LUA Scripts aren't running.

I ran the installer and PERL installed just fine and is working beautifully, but LUA scripts don't appear to be working. Do I need to install LUA as well? It said it was included in the installer, but it doesn't appear to be running.

Tried installing LUA from the Microsoft Store but no change. Kind of stumped here. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Have you got an lua_modules folder in your server folder ? and is there anything in it ?
If not, there is a folder of that name in the quests folder, not sure if that is the issue, but it's one step to check.

Thanks for the response!
Yeah, the lua modules folder in present in the server folder and it does have several lua files in it.
I'm kinda bummed because if I can't get LUA quests working, a vast majority of quests on my server won't work.

I fixed it!
What I did was I exported my database to .sql (not necessary if you plan to start from scratch), backed up all of my custom quests, deleted the "lua_modules" and "quests" folder and then reran the installer.
It replaced the quests/lua_modules folders and now the lua quests are working.
It also reset my database, but since I had exported it to sql, I just imported it back in. I also replaced all my custom quests.

I guess it installed wrong the first time, or maybe I messed something up on accident. Either way, I got it fixed and thanks @Huppy for pointing me in the right direction.

I wanted to leave the fix here on the forums just in case anyone else had this problem.
