Ragdoll commands failing

[FrohmanElite]

Now, I assume it is related to the SVN version because that is what is used. Anyway, Since revision 25+ I've found that the !Ragdoll "name" no longer works, nor does ulx ragdoll when run client or server side. On the server however it does produce an error:

I've tried reinstalling, both server and clientside but no luck. Heres the result of ulx debuginfo:

Hopefully someone can help out.

I don't have Steam installed on this PC i'm using at the moment, but before testing; have you added any addons around the same time as SVN25 that deal/work with Ragdolls?
For instance, I see you have GCombat.. does it ragdoll on death or something like that?

Quickest test I'd know to do to verify it's ULX would be to temporarily revert to SVN24 and see if ragdoll works.

[FrohmanElite]

I don't think it ragdolls on death no different if you were to be shot or something [at least that I have noticed].
I guess reverting to 24 would just be a case of telling my svn client to download revision 24 right?

[JamminR]

If you aren't using tortoise, I don't know.
Using Tortoise.. go to your servers gmod/addons/ folder using windows explorer, right click, TortoiseSVN> from shell menu, "Update to revision..."
Select "Revision", type in 24 and hit ok.

[JamminR]

BELAY that order.
From SVN 26 log file (I yet to have steam installed, just playing with backups of my lua folders)

Fixed a bug I introduced with ragdoll that I introduced in rev 25

Try it now

[FrohmanElite]

I've tried both revision 24 and 26. Same result. I've disabled gcombat and GCX by renaming the info.txt file so it doesn't load, along with the Turd Server ultils which were done by a friend but are mostly broke. I am really stumped by this and I can't think of any addons I have that interfere with spawn info.

EDIT: Fixed, It was a faulty ban list of all things so I deleted the bans.txt in the data/Ulib folder. It somehow keeps recreating a working ban file from out of nowhere. Where can I find the source to clear it?

[JamminR]

When using 24, did you truly shut down your server, then restart it?
I really don't know what else to suggest.. the only way I'd know how to truly determine it was (or wasn't) a ULX/ULib issue would be to remove the servers gmod/cache/dua folder, addons/ulx and ULib folders, then recheckout to 24 only.
All this while the server was shut down.
Then start back up. Would take a few moments longer rebuilding the cache to start up, but it would make sure you're testing the version you placed on it.

If you only restarted the map after testing, and not the actual server, you've not rebuilt the lua cache, and have run the risk of having locked files while updating/reverting.

[FrohmanElite]

I restarted via the TCAdmin control panel. Anyway, I edited my previous post not seeing that last one seeing as a faulty ban file caused it [Would never have guessed otherwise]. How does one go about clearing ban records then if the file keeps re-appearing out of nowhere?

[JamminR]

Source doesn't store temporary bans across server sessions, so we added in the file.
From what you remember of the banned corruption, did it seem to have happened before or after you used SVN?
I've seen a few other reports about corrupt bans with too many slashes in them, but they've always been with non-SVN code.

[FrohmanElite]

Well since the whole issue started with the SVN version, I can only assume it was after. I've only ever used 3.31 when the svn version fails somewhere, and the last time that happened was ages ago.

How does one go about clearing ban records then if the file keeps re-appearing out of nowhere?

Only permanent bans will repopulate after a bans.txt wipe.
To remove the permanent bans you will need to go into the servers cfg\banned_users.cfg and remove them there.



I don't think it would be necessary to wipe your banned_users.cfg now, it seems that you were able to get your server working again. But, if you wanted to be on the safer side, or were curious as to why the bans kept coming back that is why.
