For whatever reason, people that are listed in my admins.cfg with specified permissions are not permitted to use the specified permitted commands.

"Inverse"
{
	"auth"			"steam"
	"identity"		"STEAM_0:1:105199057"
	"flags"			"ab"
	"immunity"		"1"
	
	"Overrides"
	{
		"sm_votemute"		"allow"
		"votemute"		"allow"
		"sm_votekick"		"allow"
		"votekick"			"allow"
		"sm_votemap"		"allow"
		"votemap"			"allow"
        }
}

The above player does not have permission to use commands that are included with the flags (a, b). Neither the override commands. However, in my admins_simple.ini, all players listed with specified permissions are permitted in the server to use the commands specified.

"STEAM_0:0:3974567" "z" //me
"STEAM_0:0:24581782" "z" //bboy
"STEAM_0:1:182839201" "2:abcjk" //bedrock

I have restarted my server and refreshed admin cache. Any help is appreciated.

Are there any errors in your logs about a malformed admins format?

Yeah, it says:

L 07/24/2017 - 15:58:55: [admin-flatfile.smx] Error(s) detected parsing addons/sourcemod/configs/admins.cfg
L 07/24/2017 - 15:58:55: [admin-flatfile.smx]  (line 51) Section beginning without a matching ending

Although my sections have openings and closings...

Okay, so I put a group down for the player, and I added the player to the group from admins.cfg

//(ADMINS.CFG)

LowMod
{
	"Inverse"
	{
		"auth"			"steam"
		"identity"		"STEAM_0:1:105199057"
		"group"			"LowMods"
	}
}
--------------------------------------------------
"Groups"
{
	"LowMods"
	{
		"flags"	"ab"
		"immunity"	"1"
		
		"Overrides"
		{
			"sm_votekick"	"allow"
			"sm_msay"		"allow"
			"sm_mute"		"allow"
		}
	}
}

Still doesn't work and throws no errors in logs...

*edit
In admins.cfg, use first "key" as "admins". Not "lowmod"

Try this:

admins.cfg
