account name problem

hey again, i have a problem genting the account name of the player selected from a grid list, before it just returned the player nick but now just outputs a warning at debug script, here is my code.

server

function update(client)
local who = getPlayerFromName (client)
local account = getAccount (client)
triggerClientEvent ( "updateGuis", getRootElement(), getPlayerIP ( who ), getPlayerSerial ( who ), getAccountName ( account ), getPlayerMoney ( who ), getPlayerPing ( who ) )
end
addEvent("updateGui", true)
addEventHandler("updateGui", getRootElement(), update)

those other stuff is working fine, just account name dosnt work.

How many times do I have to tell you? Do NOT name any function parameters client if the function is called by triggerServerEvent.

i just changed to "player" and is same, just genting the nick not the account name

Are you sure that account name is not the same as player name? Usually when players register they register with their name so account name will be the same as their name.

Also, you use getAccount and use player's name for username (which is the account name) and then you getAccountName (of the account that you know the name already). Use getPlayerAccount instead:

local who = getPlayerFromName (client);
local account = getPlayerAccount( who );
