Can you add a way within a group to be able to select officers, owner and members? So for example within 1 group you can have x admins = officer, x members = VIP for example?

[Mister_Magotchi]

This question has been asked before in this thread, but no, I don't believe it's possible to make the plugin do that.

Here's an example of an XML member list for a Steam group:
http://steamcommunity.com/gid/103582...listxml/?xml=1

In that data, there is no separation between the IDs of officers and the IDs of other group members.

The officers do seem to be listed first, but there is no automatic way, that I know of, to tell how many of the members are officers and how many are not.

Could you upload the Sockets version as well?
I would rather use it with Sockets rather than cURL, because I run Sockets anyways.

[Mister_Magotchi]

No. That old version was buggy, it caused intermittent server crashes, and I'm not supporting it. I might even have deleted my source of it.

Also, there's no reason why you can't safely run both. You shouldn't notice any significant performance hit. They only use resources as they're called upon.

EDIT:
I found an old copy of it, and I guess I don't see the harm in at least uploading it, so here is version 0.9.0 (the Socket-based, buggy version):

Plugin updated:

0.9.6 - 2012-04-23 - Added caching: XML files are now written to the SM data folder before being read, so for later admin cache reloads, if cURL can't get fresh data from Steam's servers, it still has old data to work with.

Thank you for this.
I ended up using SteamTools and just coded the auth part for that specific plugin I was working on, but I'm sure this will help other people.

Plugin updated:

0.9.7 - 2012-04-28 - Fixed minor corruption of XML cache data, and players potentially not being properly removed as admins, when users were removed from a Steam group.

[Mister_Magotchi]

What all files are then left in addons/sourcemod/data/steam-group-admins-http after you see those errors? What do they roughly contain?

It appears to me, based on the CloseHandle error, that SourceMod is unable to write to addons/sourcemod/data/steam-group-admins-http/temp.xml .

Is there anything strange about your file permissions?

I have this version working on a Linux CS:S server, a Windows Server 2003 TF2 server, and I had it working on both CS:S and TF2 on my home Windows 7 machine.
