Autopromote XGUI Version [4.09v]

[Bite That Apple]

three questions:
[1] is that linux?
[2] are you sure you added it correctly (unziped, and is not like addons/ulx Auto Promote/ulx Auto Promote)
[3] did you alter any files? (delete/change, edit)

Same problem here, it doesn't load for some reason.

I'm running my server on Ubunutu 14.04LTS and didn't change anything.

I added extracted it then added it then add UTime then I restarted.
I got this error:
[ERROR] lua/includes/extensions/table.lua:51: bad argument #1 to 'pairs' (table expected, got nil)
  1. pairs - [C]:-1
   2. Empty - lua/includes/extensions/table.lua:51
    3. fn - addons/ulx/lua/ulx/modules/cl/xgui_client.lua:428
     4. func - addons/ulib/lua/ulib/client/cl_util.lua:22
      5. unknown - lua/includes/modules/net.lua:32

Also, it's not showing up under settings

So I put this in my addons folder but for some reason my superadmin can't see settings for autopromote in xgui, it doesn't even appear to be loaded by xgui in the console logs. But the actual addon itself is loaded by the server.

But no sign of it here.

I heard Unix based Garry's Mod server and client installations don't play well with capital letters or spaces in addon folder names. Try removing those?

EDIT: And I'm the guy who usually preaches for reading the post date... Meh. I'll leave this here if anyone else needs help.

Updated All Plugins:
I updated all files/folder names to lowercase and underscores so that we won't have a problem with linux based server.

I found out that Autopromote is the reason the errors appear that I have described in the topic. A little summary of what happend:
-I've used Autopromote already for some weeks and only for one user group, 'Regular User' which will be set after 6 hours of playing time. Must have been 20-25 Users right now.
-I've changed nothing and was playing for my friends already for more than one hour when suddendly after a mapchange:
---All Ranks were deleted
---The Round wasn't starting (everyone was spectator)
---The errors from the thread above appeared.
-Server Restart didn't solve it.
-After deleting Auto Promote from the addons the server worked again.
-I've downloaded it again as I thought I might have had an older version and put it back on the server, but then the same things happend as I described already (only the superadmin rank from me wasn't deleted this time).

Any ideas what the problem could be or how to fix it? I would very much like to keep on using this addon.

One more thing I forgot to suggest to you DH1806, make sure you have the latest ULib, ULX and UTime code from our github.
https://github.com/Nayruden/Ulysses - zip file at lower right. Though it contains MORE releases than just those three, only upload those three to your server for now.
Then try again.

[DH1806]

Thanks for the tip, but it didn't help. :/

Interesting, well, the only suggestion I can give you is delete the apromote file (data/ulx/apromote.txt) and try again, there must have been or be some file that conflicted with autopromote, or something did not execute correctly.

By any chance, do you have an special characters in your usergroups? Or anything in general that is NOT just normal text?

Secondly, do you have any other addons that use xgui/ulx/ulib for ANYTHING?

[DH1806]

Sorry for that late reply.
Well, here are all my usergroups: superadmin, admin, operator, vip, stammuser, verystammuser, suchti

I use some addons where I think they should use xgui/ulx/ulib: Join/Disconnect Message, UTime, Chat Tags, AAFK

btw, I'm using the "normal" Autopromote atm and it works fine, so I think it could be xgui here.

When you say you're using "xgui", that makes me a little worried. Like, did you actually "download" xgui? If so, I'd suggest to delete it, because XGUI has been integrated with ULX since maybe 2011. Most likely you did not do this, but if you did, delete, and delete ulx, redownload it from ulx website, and try again.

As to what autopromote you said you were using, what other autopromote are you talking about at this moment?


Lastly, thank you for supporting my addons, I'm very grateful for your support.

Updated addon to current system!

[Luk | twitch.tv/doctorluk]

May I ask what "current system" means? You've posted that - as it seems - into all threads of your plugins. Is it mandatory for us to update our plugins on the server? Did I miss something crucial?

No, you don't have to update. It's not critical update, it only added a version check now. So if the addon gets outdated, the server will then alert you that the addon is outdated, and will advice you to update every time the server starts. I did it to all my addons, as they're all connected somehow.
