Not working

code:

function redirectPlayer(thePlayer, commandName,targetPlayer, serverIP, serverPort) 
    local playername = getPlayerName(thePlayer) 
    if playername and targetPlayer and serverIP and serverPort then 
        local targetPlayer = findPlayerByName(targetPlayer) 
        redirectPlayer(targetPlayer,serverIP,tonumber(serverPort)) 
    else 
        outputChatBox("Error",source,255,0,0,true) 
    end 
end 
addCommandHandler("rd",redirectPlayer) 
  
function findPlayerByName(name) 
    local player = getPlayerFromName(name) 
    if player then return player end 
    for i, player in ipairs(getElementsByType("player")) do 
        if string.find(string.gsub(getPlayerName(player):lower(),"#%x%x%x%x%x%x", ""), name:lower(), 1, true) then 
            return player 
        end 
    end 
return false

No error, just chatbox saying "Error"

Try this it should work

function redirectPlayer(thePlayer, commandName,targetPlayer, serverIP, serverPort) 
    if targetPlayer and serverIP and serverPort then 
        local target = findPlayerByName(targetPlayer) 
        if (not isElement(target)) then  
            outputChatBox("This player does no longer exist!", thePlayer, 255, 0, 0) 
            return 
        end 
        redirectPlayer(target,serverIP,tonumber(serverPort)) 
    else 
        outputChatBox("something missing please try again!",thePlayer,255,0,0,true) 
    end 
end 
addCommandHandler("rd",redirectPlayer) 
  
  
function findPlayerByName(name) 
    local name = name and name:gsub("#%x%x%x%x%x%x", ""):lower() or nil 
    if name then 
        for _, player in ipairs(getElementsByType("player")) do 
            local name_ = getPlayerName(player):gsub("#%x%x%x%x%x%x", ""):lower() 
            if name_:find(name, 1, true) then 
                return player 
            end 
        end 
    end 
end

No need for this, just use a different function name or use anonymous function.
