Who? What? Where? When? Why?

We need more information.

"Help <insert random error here>" doesn't give us anywhere near enough information to do anything about it.

When did/does it happen? What were you doing? What do you think caused it? What else do you have installed?
How can we reproduce the error so we can find and solve the problem?

Good job Shane, not helping.

I seem to get this error (sometimes) when people join. It hasn't done it recently, but when it did occur, it was whenever someone initially spawned.

I've already made a whole thread on it, so go good job yourself.

Children, I must step in. You were all beaten by almost a month here.
http://forums.ulyssesmod.net/index.php/topic,856.0.html
and by several days on our official bug tracker.
http://www.ulyssesmod.net/bugs/view.php?id=93

UNFORTUNATELY, no one has provided us with many of the questions Spbogie asked above so we can track it down.
We run a server, I'm sure he would have seen it by now if it were reproducable ALL the time.
Does it seem to affect anything else?
Who? = (Server start, or Joining Admins, players, all of the above?)
What? = (Not just the error, but, are there side effects when it happens?)
Where? = (On server start. On player join? Listen server only, dedicated server only, all of the above?)
When? = (Some of the above answers apply, but, also in game, during spawn, during admin command?)
Why? = (You may not know this technically, but, give details as to whats going on, and maybe other mods you think might be conflicting. Does something else stop working when you see this error)

We may seem mean. We're not.
We're just developers who are tired of the "it doesn't work" post and run mentality.

Edit (spbogie): It was me not Megiddo.
Edit (JamminR): Sorry Spbogie!.

Alright, well, now that I have a dedicated console I can watch, I was able to reproduce this error on my own. It was whenever an unprivileged user joined, it tried to send a non-existent access table.

It's all fixed up for ULX v1.11 though!
