So, I've gotten my server up and running again, whoop de do. But, when I go to do anything GUI related, or even when typing "ulx <whatever>" in console, I get the error:
ULib/shared/sh_ucl.lua:58: [ULib] Player TMF[}Lavacano has an invalid group (owner), aborting. Please be careful when modifying the ULib files!
Problem is, the "owner" group is defined correctly. I checked in both ULib files (serverside and clientside, this is a clientside error). This affects:
- ULX AutoComplete
- Simple Prop Protection Admin Menu
- ULX Menus (!menu)
I can still do things such as !kick perfectly fine (I've had to !whip Minge 100 0 a few times to get them to leave me alone).

Did you edit a file?
Which file did you edit?
What is it's path location?
If more than one, which, and where?

The only files I edited were the ULib "groups.txt" and "ulx_motd.txt", and then I copied them into where the belong (OUTSIDE of addons).
This I did when I first got ULX. Not a thing has changed since.

As the file states, you should never, or ever have reason, to edit /addons/ULib/data/groups.txt
ULib creates its own file based on that file. If that file is changed/corrupted, everything based on it is too.
This is most likely why ULib is reporting the error.
If any file should have been edited at all, it would be gmod/data/ULib/groups.txt, and even then we don't recommend it.
Too many times we've seen bad syntax.
Please attach your gmod/data/ULib/groups.txt and your gmod/settings/users.txt
For extra measure, go ahead and attach a "ulx debuginfo" file from the server while you and some others are connected.

Whatever, here's my groups.txt file:
Makes sense, I am an ass to the people who try to help me too.

Your previous post:

Implies that you edited the files in addons/ then copied them over to data/

This was a miswording on my part, I'll admit this time it was my screw up. (Censorship? Seriously?)
Let's see the debug dump, too.
I will when I can.

(Censorship? Seriously?)
Yes, really. We are not Facepunch.

Yes, really. We are not Facepunch.
What you are and are not aside, censorship pains me, as I don't remember seeing anything about profanity when last I read your rules (a long time ago).
But that's not what I made the thread for (and I'll click this lock button I seem to has if it means bringing the topic to a point where it helps me somewhat). I'm still working on getting a crowd for the debug dump going, so I'll keep you posted when I can do that.

I have this same problem... and i have not edited the groups.txt file, i deleted mine and started new, did ulx addgroup "owner" "superadmin", then added myself to that group and i get spammed with this error every time i type or backspace a character in console after "ulx " or try to open the menu:
ULib/shared/sh_ucl.lua:58: [ULib] Player [GME] TweaK has an invalid group (owner), aborting. Please be careful when modifying the ULib files!
and this when i look at my thing on the modified sui_scoreboard (i dont really expect it to be supported at this point but maybe it will mean something..?):
ULib/shared/sh_ucl.lua:281: Invalid group (owner)
and the debug dump (i do have other groups defined in my old groups.txt file):

anything?

Tweak,
None of your groups are allowed the base command "ulx"
This is required for ANY ulx command to be used.
Correct that first then see if the errors clear up or change to be more helpful.
From SERVER console try ] ulx groupallow user "ulx"Then try using addgroup and adduser to the owner group.
(Did you get errors when running the addgroup 'owner' 'superadmin' the first time?)
Have you ever manually edited the groups file?
I've never seen 'ulx' get removed without doing so.
-
i did manually edit it before, but for testing purposes i moved it and let the server create a new one just to rule out manual edit of the groups file as the problem, then added the group and got no errors, added myself to the group and got no errors until i tried to type in console and whatever. and nothing happened when i ran that command because user is already allowed the base ulx command, i dunno why it didn't show up in the debug dump
-
I'm pretty much in testing now.. I had the idea after my last post, and the fact one other person has complained of odd errors that were fixed after he added "ulx" manually that perhaps ULX isn't adding "ulx" to its base group.
Currently I see that it isn't. My newly created groups.txt file has no "ulx"
I'm now testing to actually see if that causes problems. I originally wasn't able to reproduce your error using the same commands, but... my groups.txt file was converted (by ULX) from a much older file that had "ulx" in it.
I'll post the results here.
-
I'm unable to replicate the error, even with "ulx" not being part of any groups allow list..must be coded by default to be allowed.
I can imagine why ULib is seeing you as superadmin... you have yourself as superadmin in settings/users.txt; but I don't think that should affect ULib seeing you as owner.. it doesn't when I join my dev server, and I have myself in the same way.
Are you up to date with the latest ULib svn also? (rev 93 as of this post)
I see you are for ULX.
I'm at a loss, unless there's some type of conflicting addon/code, as to why you're getting the error at this time.
-
hmm... well i'll have to try it without addons and see if it still happens. i'll post back here later tonight
-
Tweak, though you may have tried it already, try moving/backing up all ULib data files (users.txt, groups.txt, misc_registered.txt). I know you stated you let groups.txt rebuild, but for testing try the other two also.
I was working with a clean file, I only have myself as superadmin in settings/users.txt, and it worked fine after changing myself to owner.
You're not running another admin mod are you? Though most times we see no big issue, if you are, try removing it first.
Also, and this is one I've mentioned to Megiddo... ULib now executes some files locally, even when joining a non-ULib server
We wanted to allow client side only scripts. However, even when I joined a non-ULib/ULX server once, I saw ULX files try to run. If you have ULib and ULX installed on your local client, make sure it's the same version as the server too.
I know it's a pain, but try each of the above one at a time (first ULib/ULX local update (or remove), then remove admin mod if you have more than one, then rebuild of all files, then remove all mods)
Any clue you can lead to may help us find improvement (or, worst case, know what to look for in correcting someone elses error) :)
-
Alright, after tons of server restarts (my server probably hates me by now) I have narrowed it down to Spacetech's Simple Prop Protection... I don't have ulx or ulib installed locally, only on the server...and ULX is the only admin mod i'm running on the server.
http://www.facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=401784
-
So, if you remove SPP from your server (and local client), then restart both... ULX allows you to addgroup owner superadmin ... adduser tweak owner ... ?
How odd.
Any ULib or SPP errors at startup?
Also, tried UPS? Then again, not sure it's compatible with current ULib SVN.
-
yeah and running with just ulx, ulib, and spp will generate the error. i tried ups a while back but i think i was having problems with regular users being unable to touch props they spawned
-
ok, couple things. ups does the same thing as well as a bunch of unhandled usermessages, so it seems the only way i can use my owner group is to run without prop protection..... also, neither votekick nor voteban work. you can call the vote and pass it but it won't actually kick or ban the user.
-
Since 99% of other scripts out there expect 'superadmin' to be the highest possible access level (including Garry's default group access commands), why not just make superadmin the highest level group?
Yes, technically, I'm curious as to why/what SPP is breaking within ULX, but, still...why re-invent the wheel.
Make superadmin the highest, make some other group lower, have it inherit admin rights plus groupallow any extra rights from the superadmin group you want it to have (if not all)
-
well that works i never really thought of doing that before lol...have you looked into the votekick/voteban thing?
-
have you looked into the votekick/voteban thing?
No need.
SVN ulx's cfg/server.ini command and convars haven't been converted to new system yet.
Until they are, vote<command> will most likely not work.
It's the same with Gimp and votemap I'd bet.
-
I had forgotten about this thread..
As stated in the OP, ULX complains about me being in an invalid group, yet the group is perfectly defined. This didn't happen until the new command system update, did the format of the file change?
-
did the format of the file change?
Groups.txt definitely changed with the later SVN ULX/ULib versions that included new command system.
Automatic conversion was written in by megiddo. I have one or two '<forget_group_backup_name>0#.txt', and a converted file named groups.txt within my gmod/data/ULib folder.
Did you ever get a "ulx debuginfo" dump for us from server console?
Also, seems Assmod versions greater than 2.5 cause a similar issue.
http://forums.ulyssesmod.net/index.php/topic,4362.0.html
Using Assmod also?
-
No, I'm not using ASSMod, I hated it when I had to use it during the "Time Of The Broken ULX" (when all the usermessages were blocked and you didn't fix them yet).
And if the format changed, I'm pretty sure that's what's caused my particular issue. Because I didn't know the file changed, I didn't see anything weird with my files (like backups). I'll move my copy to my PC, let ULX generate a new one, and do everything from there.
