users.txt

[Sebastian Sinclair]

Can someone tell me what is wrong with my users file?

Code: [Select]

"Users"
{
"superadmin"
{
"sebsinclair_uk" "STEAM_0:0:5434032"
"evan31391" "STEAM_0:0:9783620"
}
}

My server won't recognize me. The Steam ID's are correct as are the users names. I've restarted the server after making changes. I have SecureServer installed and that recognizes me, but that uses a different users file... I know.

Ok, Thanks. Should have searched before I posted 

Anyway, Still can't get it to work. It adds me but yet it still says I dot have access. Here's the information I am required to post:

This is a rented "Dedicated Server".

My problem is that my server will not recognize me as an admin. I have reported this to my server admins, they are looking into it also. In the mean time I am trying to find a solution myself.

[spbogie]

First, let me point out that the group for the level below superadmin is admin not administrators.

Now, it appears you are somehow being authed with a different group than you are listed in users.
Can you please paste the contense of "/settings/users.txt" and "/data/ULib/users.txt".

[Sebastian Sinclair]

users.txt from ../data/Ulib/

Code: [Select]

"Out"
{
"evan31391"
{
"id" "STEAM_0:0:9783620"
"type" "steamid"
"groups"
{
"1" "superadmin"
"2" "immunity"
}
}
"sebsinclair_uk"
{
"type" "steamid"
"groups"
{
"1" "superadmin"
"2" "immunity"
}
"id" "STEAM_0:0:5434032"
}
}

users.txt from ../settings/

Code: [Select]

"Users"
{
"superadmin"
{
"sebsinclair_uk" "STEAM_0:0:5434032"
"evan31391" "STEAM_0:0:9783620"
}
}

Comparing those two, I can see that the file from data/Ulib is trying to add evan31391 to a group that does not exist in the file in settings?

[spbogie]

Everything there appears to be correct. I'm not sure where the administrators group is coming from, but that looks like the problem.

[Sebastian Sinclair]

Ok, I have fixed it. I had done many times, but I re-installed ULX. I re did the users.txt in settings and now it works.

Many thanks for your help.

[spbogie]

Glad you got it working. If you ever run into other problems please feel free to ask for more help. Also please check the bug tracker http://www.ulyssesmod.net/bugs before posting about any errors, and if it is already reported then simply add any addidional information you may have as a note on that bug report.

Hmm I don't like the null entity in your authed users. It's supposed to remove users when they disconnect, how did it hold onto the entity when it went invalid? Maybe this was part of the problem.

[spbogie]

I've always had those NULL Entities show up in authed, and have never had them cause any problems. Whenever checking authed it checks with the player object if I'm not mistaken, and as such those extra NULL entities should cause no problems, except to take up a small amount of memory. (Unless by some insane circumstance an new player happens to join and become the Entity that the admin was previously.)
