Server Console adduser not working.

[jay209015]

Code: [Select]

ulx adduser "(D.O.A.)LemmingguidedmissileTWM" "mod"
ok, I ran the code above in the server console and it returned "invalid group". I know the group exists, I created it myself, so knowing this I joined the server and pasted the code exactly and it worked.

[MrPresident]

It's possible that the way your server console program.. (I'm assuming HLSW) works it was mixing up the parameters for some reason. Here are a few steps to ensure that it works in the future.

1. Don't use the full name. ULX has partial name checking and you should use it to your advantage. 'Lemming' would have worked just fine.
2. Don't use quotation marks around the name and the group. they are unnecissary and however unlikely, it could cause the program to parse the info wrong.

If I had to wager a guess.. I'd say that SOMEHOW the name in it's length and use of non alpha-numeric characters was split and the later part of it was sent to the command as the group. Rather than receiving 'mod' as the group it was receiving the later part of the name. Just a theory... Try this in your console and see if it works.

ulx adduser lemming mod

I would bet that it would work perfectly. (assuming, of course, that there isnt another person on the server with lemming in their name at the time.)

It's possible that the way your server console program.. (I'm assuming HLSW) works it was mixing up the parameters for some reason. Here are a few steps to ensure that it works in the future.

I ran it from srcds.exe's window itself. the server is local.

2. Don't use quotation marks around the name and the group. they are unnecissary and however unlikely, it could cause the program to parse the info wrong.

The quotes are used to make sure everything in the players name is a string. Often parenthesis can make commands fail that expect a string.

1. Don't use the full name. ULX has partial name checking and you should use it to your advantage. 'Lemming' would have worked just fine.

I know that partial names work, but I don't understand why his full name didn't in the console while it did ingame.

[JamminR]

I'm guessing it had something to do with the parenthesies also. As for why srcds didn't leave it be using double quote, no clue.
Perhaps a single quote ' , see if srcds handles that better.

[AviZ]

Code: [Select]

ulx adduser "(D.O.A.)LemmingguidedmissileTWM" "mod"
ok, I ran the code above in the server console and it returned "invalid group". I know the group exists, I created it myself, so knowing this I joined the server and pasted the code exactly and it worked.

ulx debuginfo:

its ulx rcon ulx adduser "(D.O.A.)LemmingguidedmissileTWM" mod

this is the only way i have found it to work...

[JamminR]

its ulx rcon ulx adduser "(D.O.A.)LemmingguidedmissileTWM" mod

this is the only way i have found it to work...

AviZ, "ulx adduser <user> <group> [immune]" works fine from the server console (except for what Jay is describing).
You're having to use rcon because your trying it from your game console, not the server.

[Megiddo]

Hmm, yah, try matching the partial name and see if that works.

[JamminR]

Hmm, yah, try matching the partial name and see if that works.

Only a workaround, not a solution.
I'm betting srcds is killing on the brackets, even with the double quotes. I'd still be interested to know if single quotes work.

[Megiddo]

Workarounds are perfectly valid solutions.
