Sourcemod doesn't seem to be recognizing users flags assigned by group.

MaloModo · **Author**

For the last few weeks or more. Not really sure. I have one server where have gone "back" to assign admin flags defined in admin_groups.cfg.

Doesn't seem to be working anymore. If I do assign flags in admins.cfg seems fine. Here is example:

Spoiler

then in admins.cfg:

Spoiler

I join as say me (steam as above) but I have no access to admin menu. I add flag to admins.cfg, sm_reloadadmins and I am good. Doesn't give any errors in parsing files. I am positive this used to work fine before...something changed and/or error in syntax?

Bacardi

you are missing last close bracket } in admins.cfg

Are you using SourceBans ?

You are also missing a closing " mark on the last group key.

Sorry folks that was just a typo. Like I said it parses just fine. Wish it was that simple. The actual admin file has the last closing }. But thx for the suggestion. I assume then know one else is having this rather peculiar problem? I mean this should work right? I hate to even ask..LOL. Cause 99.9% sure it used to.

Bacardi

are you using another admin system, like sourcebans ?

Not on this particular server. I did a complete reset on it and reinstalled. Same thing. This server is running basically "vanilla" tf2, meaning "normal" mp tf2 gameplay.

does it work if you set SM core.cfg
"SteamAuthstringValidation" "no"
?
*edit
set in server, con_logfile myfile.txt
and sm_reloadadmins
can you find any errors in myfile.txt ?

*edit
rcon sm_dumb_admincache
and show file
sourcemod/data/admincache.txt

Ok so I am back. I got distracted. So yeah the command it looks like is actually sm_dump_admcache but thank you. This is very strange to me. Getting the same thing. I tried what you said with "simple" files for testing.

Code:

"Groups"
{
    "boss"
    {
        "flags"        "z"
        "immunity"        "100"
    }
}

Code:

"Admins"
{
    "malo"
    {
        "auth"        "steam"
        "identity"        "STEAM_0:xxxxxx"
        "group"        "boss"
        "immunity"        "100"
    }
}

I reload sm_reloadadmins and this run rcon dump cache and this is the output:

Code:

"Groups"
{
    /* num = 1, gid = 0x0 */
    "boss"
    {
        "flags"            "z"
        "immunity"        "100"

        "Overrides"
        {
        }
    }
}

"Admins"
{
    /* num = 1, aid = 0x29, serialno = 0x2*/
    "malo"
    {
        "auth"            "steam"
        "identity"        "0:1782389"
        "flags"            ""
        "immunity"        "100"
        "group"            "boss"
    }
}

"Overrides"
{
    "sm_setcash"        ""
    "sm_addmoney"        ""
    "sm_addcash"        ""
    "sm_ff2boss"        "a"
    "ff2_boss"        "a"
    "sm_forcertd"        "z"
    "sm_randomrtd"        "z"
    "sm_votekick"        ""
    "sm_setmoney"        ""
}

This is very strange and behind annoying as I am 100% sure this used to work fine. It looks as though the flag(s) aren't being assigned. I know that if I manually add flags to admins.cfg and reload I then gain access to admin menu etc.

...either your server have lose connection to Steam or your steamid not match.
Try change steamid
"STEAM_0:0:xxxxx" to "STEAM_0:1:xxxxx" *no, this not work

*edit
join your server and type in console
status
and give output message here.

*edit
or try use new steamid3
"[U:x:xxxxxxx]"

*edit
what you have in
admins_simple.ini ?

OK so I tried all those things...and still flags do not get assigned to players who are in a group. And FYI the admin_groups.cfg looks like wants capital "Groups" even? I had to change to upper case G to even have groups appear in dump file. The server is online. I tried all those different variations of steamID.

Anyhow I am to the point I am going to install fresh server to test this. I believe it is SM. <-------update: Perhaps not, perhaps....it seems in configs for Admins and Groups, it doesn't like "Admins" anymore? just Admin. Cause for the moment it seems to be working correctly on server. Weird.
