No, my tbl_server is empty.... I thought that might be the issue... Should I be running my server stats WITHOUT adkats for a while to get the servers in the table? As soon as I ran statslogger from XpKiller I ran the adkat.sql on the database...

The server ID is 1

I've successfully installed Adkats into a Procon layer server. No error message were shown when running the plugin. However, in-game, the admins are not able to view the list of commands they are able to execute with !help. Are you able to assist me?

There is no !help command in AdKats, the list of commands is too many to show in game. The list is here: https://github.com/ColColonCleaner/A...-game-commands

It's rare, but sometimes a person has already been warned via chat, so a reason is not needed as he knows what he's done.

Answered my own question, i restarted the layer, that didnt work, so I ran the procon update program on the layer and that worked.

Chat directed at a player is not easily accessible, so giving a reason for actions against a player is still required. Keeping admins accountable is a major part of this system and will not be removed. All commands resulting in actions against a player will require a reason to be entered. There is also a minimum reason length, which is set to 4 on our servers to make sure reasons are actually valid. This value can be reduced to 1, but not to 0.

I swear, the number of times people's problems have been fixed lately simply by restarting/updating procon is insane...glad you got it figured out though.

Are you saying bans added by your autoadmin will now stay in the procon banlist and not be imported to ban enforcer?

How can I setup a mysql?

 

I rent a server from 4netplayers.net.

I am connected to it via Procon and can change several settings.

I installed one other plugin like Simple Command Repeater.

 

I entered the Server IP at mysqlhost

entered the Port...

but what to enter at mysql database?

entered username for procon and the password-

I got the adkats.sql but what do to with that?

 

When reloading the Plugins (Adkats checked) it tells me a thousand times:

Not DB connection capable yet, complete SQL connection variables.

and stops.

 

Can you help me out?

you need to create a databse on your web hosting. then enter them details into the adkats plugin. the .sql file you would import into the newly created database, via the import tab

With web hosting you mean where i bought (rent) the server?

If yes, how to create a database there?

i dont believe that GSP ( who you rent your game server with ) do this

 

you need a Web Host preferably a VPS most of the time. with Cpanel ( jiust to make it easier )

That is very strange. If onbanlist fired then it should be detecting all current bans from procon...how many bans are under the ban counts shown in settings?

finally: i can not use adkats with the things I have?

(sorry - new to server hosting)

7 bans total, but these are only the manual ingame bans by admins. procon banlist doesnt have this in it, but only the auto admin ones. i tried with a different db but same. i will revert back to 3.7 and see if this helps me

do you host a webpage with anyone ? or do you just have a game server ?

 

if you only have a game server then yes, you will need a host.

You need a database to run AdKats, and that database needs to be accessible from your procon layer. You do not need a VPS or anything on that level, just an accessible database. If you want something basic that does not require a database, use the default in-game admin.

Disable ban enforcer, then re-enable it. This will first cause all database held bans to be repopulated to your procon layer, since it's just 10 this wont be an issue. Secondly once you re-enable ban enforcer it should re-download all of the bans to your database, so afterward your procon layer banlist tab should be empty (make sure to refresh the tab).

The only reason this would happen is if the current server IP is not present in the tbl_server table. AdKats tells you the server IP and port when it attempts to start up, confirm that combined value is in your tbl_server table.

Hmm ok, it's a server I previously had running both plugins nicely, I just let it go dormant and have recently reactivated it.

I was having similar issues. A procon layer restart didn't help, so I did a full physical restart of the mysql and procon machine. Everything worked after that.

I got it going finally after rebuilding my databases and MySQL for that server.
