LINUX / UNIX ONLY

For anyone running linux/unix getting errors with Deagle's map management along the following lines, please double check my solution below

- Not showing any maps during mapvote
- "say listmaps" returns a list of 0 maps
- "a complete list of 0 maps is being displayed in your console
- server is as if mapcycle.txt, allmaps.txt, maps.ini, etc are being ignored


Possible solution:
Double check the permissions of your config file directory
Deagle's module requires both read and write access to your config directory

IE
chmod 777 {hl-mod-directory}/addons/amxmodx/configs

or just chmod 770 if you're confident the user HLDS is running as is also the owner of the configs directory

this read/write access is required because deagle's map manager will attempt to write a file lastmapsplayed.txt. If it fails to write to this file, all calls in the plugin to write_lastmaps() will fail.

Another possible solution is to move the path lastmapsplayed.txt is written to (via a source edit / recompile), as I have done.



Hope that helps someone out there Smile

Post in that plugin's thread. Read the stickies and announcements in each of the boards before posting again. Thank you.
