error 079: inconsistent return types (array & non-array) - Stefans94 - 02.10.2011

Hello all,
I get this error:

Code:

error 079: inconsistent return types (array & non-array)

And this is the part of the script

Code:

stock HouseFile(houseid) {
new string[10];
format(string, sizeof(string), HOUSEPATH, houseid);
if(fexist(string)) {
	return string;
	} else {
	return 0;
}
}

The error is on the line: return 0;
I can just return a string, but i don't want to return only a string, it needs to check if the file exists or not!
Please help me
Thanks

Well, you can:

pawn Code:

stock HouseFile(houseid) 
{
    new string[10];
    format(string, sizeof(string),HOUSEPATH, houseid);
    return string;
}

And after:

pawn Code:

if(fexist(HouseFile(houseid))
{
    return 0;
}
