ulib bans issue.

<< < (2/3) > >>

MrPresident:
By the way,

bans_backup.txt is generated when ULX needs to re-create the bans file for some reason. usually because there's an error in the file.

the backup file contains the bans.txt as it was BEFORE it was re-generated, so simply renaming it to bans.txt isn't going to do anything except cause ULX to recreate the backup file and re-generate a bans.txt file using whatever 'good' info it can get.

The most common reason this happens is if you're missing a bracket { } in which case it will load everything up until the missing bracket and then error (creating the backup and a new bans.txt with only the good info in it)

Attach a copy of your bans_backup.txt

s8ncaat:
The ULX menu displays that there are 293 bans active currently.

I was just wondering if having no bans.txt file (only bans_backup) is why ulib can't read the bans.

MrPresident:
Those bans have to come from somewhere.

ULX reads bans from a few locations.

bans.txt in the ULib folder as well as some ban cfg files in the garrysmod/cfg folder.

It's possible that the bans are there and ULX is just reading them to display in the ULX menu.

Maybe the importer doesn't read from that file, only the bans.txt file?

s8ncaat:
It's just strange also that some of the bans that actually were imported, that some of the steam ID's aren't even in the bans_backup.txt file or banned_user.cfg files. Makes me think that somehow they're being stored somewhere else, but I have no idea why or where that would even be, I've been through a bunch of folders in /data and in /cfg and can't see anything.  ???

s8ncaat:
The actual addon imports from the ULib.bans table, so thats probably why those Steam ID's aren't from the bans_backup.txt file, but i'm still not sure why the ULib.bans table would be un-readable for some reason  :o
