Locked Out, Stuck On Admin [Resloved]
« on: July 24, 2012, 11:38:17 PM »
Yes I'm running a server and I recently lost the password for the login on the site but its in the process of being reset, but the thing is I was messing with the ranks and de-ranked my self to admin when I should be Superadmin... Is there away to change this with out logging in to the site? I know I should have checked the box that told me I could manage ranks But it was in the middle of the night and I was tired and didn't think..


Please is there anyway for version: 3.54

I just need superadmin to change the bans, it get a little old kicking 1000 times.

Unless you have rcon, ulx adduser or FTP access, you're going to be an admin.

Do you know your RCON password? If so do the following...


1. In console type rcon_password <your rcon password>
2. type rcon ulx adduser <your user> superadmin


This is the only way, unfortunately. FTP wouldn't work because you wouldn't have any way of refreshing the access file short of purposefully crashing your server, though I never recommend that. :P

Recommended or not, it's an option. Especially for a situation like this, don't you think?

FTP would work because admins can change the map with "ulx map". Just change the map after you edit the file.

Try to be more careful with access stuff in the future. :)
