Title: Waiting for Server Confirmation
Post by: Hipster on December 19, 2012, 04:13:36 PM

Hello,

I've had an issue that's been appearing on and off for a while here and I'm not sure what is causing it. However, it does force me to halt donations and answer complaints about why things don't work right, just until I restore the server to the last backup.

I own a DarkRP server, and occasionally I'll join the server and see that ULX has not loaded properly. I will generally open the ULX menu with a key I have bound to "xgui" and see "Waiting for Server Confirmation (5 Seconds)"

Then I see:
(http://i.imgur.com/Hiocx.png)

I'm using the newest version of ULX and ULib, and I have it installed through an SVN. (https://github.com/Nayruden/Ulysses.git/trunk/ulx) and (https://github.com/Nayruden/Ulysses.git/trunk/ulib) respectively.

Like I mentioned previously, this occurs randomly as far as I can tell. My solution is generally to restore the server from a backup, but then some players lose ranks, some lost money, points etc. But It's worth it in my opinion because it starts working again. Well, this time I restored it and it's working only half-way. Generally what happens when this occurs is that even me, the owner of the server, does not have access to any command. Money printers which are changed based on ULX ranks stop changing, ULX is a big mess.
This time after I restored, I get this error like always, except ULX appears to be functioning normally, with the exception that I can't make any changes such as changing the MOTD URL or such. Admins and Moderators have commands they can use except it will always echo the command but not display the admin, nor the target. Example: " brought ", or " kicked " where it should say "Admin brought user" and "Admin kicked user".

Thanks Ulysses Team,
Hipster

Though you're explaining the 'results' of the problem, we'll need more information to troubleshoot.
Please provide server and any client logs of ULib/ULX errors that occur at server startup, map changes, and/or player connects when your problems occurs.
Additionally, later versions of DarkRP have an admin mod of their own that many have stated causes issues.
Do your errors occur when you remove all other addons except for ULib and ULX?
Without seeing errors, it sounds like conflicting code. (Heck, DarkRP alone makes us often cringe)

Here's one error I'm noticing that I didn't used to get:

I've uninstalled and re-installed multiple times. I'll look for some more errors, hopefully this can help in the mean time.

You're getting that error when trying to unban someone? Can you share your bans.txt file with us?

Do you have errors on server startup, too?

Taking a look at console on startup, I don't see any issues. Here is the current bans.txt
