Downgrading ULX problem
« on: January 18, 2010, 02:02:50 PM »
I replaced my ulx and ulib svn with the 3.40 version for better stability, but now nothing works! Here's what happens when I type "ulx who"
Code: [Select]
16:59:40 ulx who
16:59:40 ID Name                            Immune Groups
16:59:40 L 01/18/2010 - 15:59:44: Lua Error: ULib/shared/sh_ucl.lua:149: bad argument #1 to 'ipairs' (table expected, got string)ULib/shared/sh_ucl.lua:149: bad argument #1 to 'ipairs' (table expected, got string)
16:59:40 L 01/18/2010 - 15:59:44: Lua Error: ULib/shared/sh_ucl.lua:149: bad argument #1 to 'ipairs' (table expected, got string)
I get that error from pretty much any ULX command.

Possibilities;
#1 most likely
1) SVN gmod/data/ULib/groups.txt AND users.txt (and I believe misc_registered.txt) uses a much different format than release. SVN has a built in converter that converts old to new.
However, release 3.4 does not have a convert new to old. If you're trying to use the converted groups.txt and users.txt files without restoring the old from backups, you'll get errors.
Look in your server's gmod/data/ULib for backups. I think SVN creates them. old<file>.txt
(Either that, or I backed my own up)

2) Mixed versions? (which, yes, technically #1 would be too). Did you totally delete/remove gmod/addons/ULib and /ULX before re-installing release?

Also make sure you've totally restarted server and  if you use sv_downloadurl, have uploaded the newly rebuilt cache after restart.

Yes it was #1, I manually converted the files and it works now, thanks.
