I have SB installed on webserver and the plugin on the game server. I edited the sourcebans.cfg to show where to see the Ban and the ID number. On the site, SB can connect to the server. But when I ban someone in the server they told me that they did not get a message to go to where I installed SB on the webserver.

Anyone know why? Did I forget something/do something wrong?

Have you done this step?

Database setup:
Edit addons/sourcemod/configs/databases.cfg and add an entry for SourceBans.
It should have the following general format:
"Databases"
{
"driver_default" "mysql"

"sourcebans"
{
"driver" "mysql"
"host" "localhost" // The host where your mysql server is located
"database" "sourcebans_db" // The name of the database
"user" "sb" // The name of the user that the plugin should use to connect
"pass" "sbpass" // The password for this user
}
}

Hey All.

Having some problems here and im hoping someone might have some helpful answers or suggestions.

Sourcebans and SourceMod are installed both of which are the latest.
Now, for some odd reason when adding admins via the sourcebans web-interface I am unable to use sm_admin from in-game, all I get is "[SM] You do not have access to this command".

I have checked both admins.cfg and found that despite giving myself access to the server and full root access via sourcebans the file remains unmodified. Is this right?

Our sourcebans installion is correctly installed as found here http://www.legionofdamned.com/source_bans/ and even the banning function works 100% which brings me to my next point...

Why when I ban myself from in-game that it doe's not show on sourcebans?

If this was for me, yes. I can kick and ban players from the site. Does this mean its fully working? How come when someone gets banned in server it does not tell them where to see the ban? Is there a way for my members to register so I can give them admin access or do I have to do it manually? I do not see a register button/link anywhere..

Ok i'm working with wildfire. We have solved our error.
It was in database.cfg , our "host" was set to localhost by mistake.
Therefore we had the error :

Database failure: [1045]: Access denied for user 'User'@'localhost' (using password: YES)

We have replaced it with the host IP then everything was working fine.

Anyone know why I would be getting a error connecting when my spourcebans page attempts to connect with my servers? Sourcebans communicates fine with the bans, admins, etc...

No, the webpanel's functionality doesn't have anything to do with the game server plugin. Check your sourcebans.log for any errors.

It does tell them, but currently NOT when banning through the admin menu, as it shows the reason instead. When the player tries to join 5min later, when the local ban is expired, it will show him the weblink.

You have to add them manually.

Why is the webpanel showing "Error Connecting (ip:port)" for my server, when it's actually online?
The communication of the gameplugin with the database doesn't have anything to do with the webpanel features, as sayed above.

I run multiple servers from one TF2 install directory. The problem with this and sourcebans is that there's only one sourcebans.cfg file making it impossible to set the server ID for each server.

Is there a cvar I can set for the server ID?

What features won't work without setting unique server ID's?

[Peace-Maker]

There is no cvar you could add to the startup line.
The ServerID fixes a "sid can not be null' problem with the gameserver's ip isn't recognized as the one you've added to sourcebans, but as a different one your root server.
You can test if it works with ServerID "-1".

Sorry if this has been asked/answered already. When I ban someone from webpanel, they are able to rejoin ? When I said I banned them in the other post. I banned them while I was in the server. I'll check log. I'm looking on my server and I don't see a sourcebans.log? Or am I looking in the wrong location?
