this the spell that is registered in spells.xml
Code:
<instant name="haste_giantspider"  words="###11"  aggressive="0" blockwalls="1" needtarget="1" needlearn="1" script="monster/haste_giantspider.lua"/>
this is how spell used to look
Lua:
local combat = createCombatObject()
setCombatParam(combat, COMBAT_PARAM_EFFECT, CONST_ME_MAGIC_GREEN)
setCombatParam(combat, COMBAT_PARAM_AGGRESSIVE, 0)

local condition = createConditionObject(CONDITION_HASTE)
setConditionParam(condition, CONDITION_PARAM_TICKS, 20*1000)
setConditionFormula(condition, 0, 120, 0, 140)
setCombatCondition(combat, condition)

function onCastSpell(cid, var)
    return doCombat(cid, combat, var)
end
how it looks now
Code:
local combat = Combat()
combat:setParameter(COMBAT_PARAM_EFFECT, CONST_ME_MAGIC_GREEN)
combat:setParameter(COMBAT_PARAM_AGGRESSIVE, false)

local condition = createConditionObject(CONDITION_HASTE)
setConditionParam(condition, CONDITION_PARAM_TICKS, 20*1000)
setConditionFormula(condition, 0, 120, 0, 140)
addCombatCondition(combat, condition)

function onCastSpell(creature, variant)
    return combat:execute(creature, variant)
end
I'm not reveiving errors in console, spells are not being exected. can somebody tell me what might be wrong?
 
Solution
by default the defenses have an interval of 2000 milliseconds (2 seconds.), and you have a chance of 6 in 100. It would be very rare to see this spell executed, have you tried a higher chance?

maybe: <defense name="haste_giantspider" chance="100"/>
