AutoExecConfig is not creating the config file all of a sudden.

It worked fine one day ago, then recently I wanted to reset it so I deleted the .cfg file. Now it won't recreate one when I restart the server.

My code:

public void OnPluginStart() {
	// CVars
	AutoExecConfig_SetFile("warden", "BetterWarden"); // What's the configs name and location?
	AutoExecConfig_SetCreateFile(true); // Create config if it does not exist
	...
	AutoExecConfig_CreateConVar(...);
	...
	AutoExecConfig_ExecuteFile(); // Execute the config
	AutoExecConfig_CleanFile(); // Clean the .cfg from spaces etc.
}

Anyone know why this is happening? I can't seem to find any errors in the logs either.

Another issue is that the connection to a database is not working. So it would seem that the plugin is not initiating properly. Which is really weird..

EDIT
When in-game and doing sm_cvar my_cvar it finds the cvar and its value. So the CVars are being created, but not the actual config file somehow...

So after some more testing on another PC. It seems that if I delete the cfg-files and restart the server, the cfg won't re-generate. Some kind of caching? Is this something anybody else experienced?

And convars created with flag FCVAR_DONTRECORD, not save in config file.

Sorry

I'm still having issues with this. Anyone know what this might be because of?
I even tried changing what .cfg name it should create and it never got created.

SOLVED

This was needed nowadays:

AutoExecConfig_SetCreateDirectory(true);
