My adduser command is not working.

[aaronm1004]

Hello, I have recently started a dedicated server that I run on my home computer.
I started the server and joined it and in the server prompt I typed in

Code: [Select]

ulx adduser Aaron superadminAfter I hit enter it says

Code: [Select]

ULib/server/ucl.lua:246: attempt to index local 'users' (a nil value)I disconnect from the server rejoin and I try the various admin abilities and it simply says I do not have permission to do that.
I'm sure I've added myself as admin correctly, because my

I am using ULib version 2.30
and using ULX version 3.40
  Can anyone please help me fix this

Is that your full groups.txt?
If so, delete it and your misc_registered.txt and restart the server.

[Megiddo]

You'll want to delete your users.txt as well. All look as if they were badly modified by hand.

Correct me if i'm wrong, ULX Team, but this:

Code: [Select]

ULib/server/ucl.lua:246: attempt to index local 'users' (a nil value)

means that the UCL process can't find the "users" group in groups.txt?

I'm doing my best to learn how ULX operates. I'm having some of these problems myself, most of them having to do with SWEPS or other entities.

Also, Aaron, if you want to hand modify your users.txt and groups.txt, get in touch with me. I have done so and my ULX works flawlessly [thanks to JamminR for seeing my idiot mistake (missing "ulx" in users group)].
Just a nice helping hand.

I have the same problem. I run a srcds, which works perfect. When I made myself admin, it said I don't even have permission to use the !menu command. I need some help.

[JamminR]

OneUnluckySrcdsOwner,
1) Move yourself from admin to superadmin in gmodroot/settings/users.txt
As a server owner, default access of superadmin is best.

2)  Did you edit /addons/ULib/data/ULib/groups.txt? and users.txt
Yes? Delete your addons/ULib folder, re-install. (Don't ever edit /addons/ULib/data/ULib/groups.txt (or any file there in that folder) )
No? Something is wrong. No files exist, or can be read, from gmod/data/ULib/*
 Does the 'user' running Srcds/Gmod have permissions to write to/read from <gmod root>/data/ULib/?
The ULib.ucl.groups and ULib.ucl.users portion of your debug file are empty. Even when things are totally broken, the groups area shouldn't be empty.

Check\correct those few items.
Check for console errors at server startup regarding ULib/ULX. Report them if corrections didn't work.

Also, make sure you're connected to your server (or the player having access problem is connected) the next time you run a debug.

I'm not sure why I didn't see this earlier, but no, it means that for some reason the users file is returning nil, not that it can't find the group 'users'.
