Some of my products contain scripts that check to make sure that the main script is running when the object is rezzed.
I've occasionally seen errors saying that the main script couldn't be found...
I suspect this is simply because of lag, right? Or is there some weird bug that I'm not aware of?

There is no guarantee that all of your object's inventory will be loaded at the same time after rezz. Especially if there are many items in object's inventory, it gets loaded in batches, which you can seee in changed event when it fires repeatedly. Give it some time before checking it.

I think that particular problem has more to do with the viewer than with the server, though. As far as the server goes, when it loads an object from the asset server, it should have loaded it all before scripts start/resume executing.
As for the OP's problem, it sounds like it is intermittently failing to see another running script in an already rezzed object.
What mechanism are you using to detect the main script?

I use llGetScriptState and llSetScriptState.
I already have a small delay coded in (about half a second), but I suppose I could increase it.

Im going to throw out a scenario, that may be off the mark, but is very likely
main scrip has multiple states,and one of those states does NOT have a message handler, sub script sends a message to the main script in the on_rez event, but gets no response (because the main hasn't yet entered a state where it can recieve the message...
am I getting warm?

Nope, the main script only has one state.

Sometimes it takes time for the contents of an object to load, especially right after rez. I would wait a second or two before doing that check.
