Advanced In-Game Admin and Ban Enforcer - AdKats


Message added by Prophet731,

If you've been banned from a server then you will need to appeal the ban with the owners/community of that server. We do not control any bans done on servers that utilize AdKats as all bans are local to that server.

That happened to me yesterday, the web stats stopped working until I noticed that.

Please read the documentation. Nuke is either us, ru, cn, or all. You are typing in rus which contains both ru, and us, which is confusing the system.

Strange. The only thing i call for stat logger on db disconnect is disable, then enable once connection is restored. I'll look into it.

First, have you updated to 4.1? If not, do that, this is related to an issue that was fixed.

 

Then to repair what the issue caused in 4.0 run this:

 

Code:

UPDATE
     adkats_records_main
SET
    record_message = "Record Message Invalid"
WHERE 
    record_message <> "Record Message Invalid"
AND
(
    (command_action = 20 AND command_type <> 20)
    OR 
    (command_action = 35 AND command_type <> 35)
);
The player might be getting an enforce ban because his account is being linked to a banned player's account by the database. If this is working incorrectly I will need to look further.

 

This is why i wish i had more testers :sad:, as soon as a full release happens obscure bugs start to surface.

I have updated to 4.1, yesterday morning. :smile:

 

I haven't done the above sql query before, and the upgrade sql query was the same as i got from you earlier or no? :tongue:

 

When i ran:

Code:

ALTER TABLE `adkats_specialplayers`
  ADD CONSTRAINT `adkats_specialplayers_game_id` FOREIGN KEY (`player_game`) REFERENCES `tbl_games`(`GameID`) ON UPDATE NO ACTION ON DELETE CASCADE, 
  ADD CONSTRAINT `adkats_specialplayers_server_id` FOREIGN KEY (`player_server`) REFERENCES `tbl_server`(`ServerID`) ON UPDATE NO ACTION ON DELETE CASCADE, 
  ADD CONSTRAINT `adkats_specialplayers_player_id` FOREIGN KEY (`player_id`) REFERENCES `tbl_playerdata`(`PlayerID`) ON UPDATE NO ACTION ON DELETE CASCADE;
I got this error:

Code:

#1005 - Can't create table 'nbfc_bf4log.#sql-dc7_36d48' (errno: 121)

So many people are getting that error when running the update...

 

It doesn't stop the program from working when the error happens, but i'm wondering why it's happening. That error means the foreign key you are trying to add already exists...which should only happen if you accidentally run it twice. I've tried to replicate the error on my machines, and it only happens when i do it twice.

 

But yes, run that fix query then have that player attempt to join again. If the enforce ban record has "LINKED ACCOUNT *some ID here*" in it, then it's the linked account system keeping him out.

Okay, thanks for clearing that up. :smile:

 

I'll check if he has gotten in or not tomorrow. :smile:

Just to keep my sanity on this....do you all have "Feed stat logger settings" set to True? Because if you do, yes those settings will be changed. If that is set to true, then set it to false, turn enable live scoreboard in DB on in stat logger, then tell me if the issue continues.

 

EDIT: If this does end up resolving the issue, then i will remove the "Enable live Scoreboard in DB" "False" setting feed.

Yes, in 4.1 the variables fed to stat logger changed. I will modify them so they do not impede your live DB settings.

 

The live scoreboard issues is on our end as well, and unfortunately i do not control/develop that element, that is prophet's domain. We are waiting on him to fix it on our end as well.

Like i said, live scoreboard is not under my control. I'm not sure why it is not working, but i am not the developer of that component.

 

The live scoreboard is a direct RCON link to the server just like procon is, it does not rely on the live scoreboard in the database to function, something else is making it malfunction.

Well nothing has changed since 4.0.0.0, worked fine then, then updated to the new version and now it doesn't.

  • Our picks

    • Game Server Hosting:

      We're happy to announce that EZRCON will branch out into the game server provider scene. This is a big step for us so please having patience if something doesn't go right in this area. Now, what makes us different compared to other providers? Well, we're going with the idea of having a scaleable server hosting and providing more control in how you set up your server. For example, in Minecraft, you have the ability to control how many CPU cores you wish your server to have access to, how much RAM you want to use, how much disk space you want to use. This type of control can't be offered in a single service package so you're able to configure a custom package the way you want it.

      You can see all the available games here. Currently, we have the following games available.

      Valheim (From $1.50 USD)


      Rust (From $3.20 USD)


      Minecraft (Basic) (From $4.00 USD)


      Call of Duty 4X (From $7.00 USD)


      OpenTTD (From $4.00 USD)


      Squad (From $9.00 USD)


      Insurgency: Sandstorm (From $6.40 USD)


      Changes to US-East:

      Starting in January 2022, we will be moving to a different provider that has better support, better infrastructure, and better connectivity. We've noticed that the connection/routes to this location are not ideal and it's been hard getting support to correct this. Our contract for our two servers ends in March/April respectively. If you currently have servers in this location you will be migrated over to the new provider. We'll have more details when the time comes closer to January. The new location for this change will be based out of Atlanta, GA. If you have any questions/concerns please open a ticket and we'll do our best to answer them.

    • Hello All,

      I wanted to give an update to how EZRCON is doing. As of today we have 56 active customers using the services offered. I'm glad its doing so well and it hasn't been 1 year yet. To those that have services with EZRCON, I hope the service is doing well and if not please let us know so that we can improve it where possible. We've done quite a few changes behind the scenes to improve the performance hopefully. 

      We'll be launching a new location for hosting procon layers in either Los Angeles, USA or Chicago, IL. Still being decided on where the placement should be but these two locations are not set in stone yet. We would like to get feedback on where we should have a new location for hosting the Procon Layers, which you can do by replying to this topic. A poll will be created where people can vote on which location they would like to see.

      We're also looking for some suggestions on what else you would like to see for hosting provider options. So please let us know your thoughts on this matter.

    • Added ability to disable the new API check for player country info


      Updated GeoIP database file


      Removed usage sending stats


      Added EZRCON ad banner



      If you are upgrading then you may need to add these two lines to your existing installation in the file procon.cfg. To enable these options just change False to True.

      procon.private.options.UseGeoIpFileOnly False
      procon.private.options.BlockRssFeedNews False

    • I wanted I let you know that I am starting to build out the foundation for the hosting services that I talked about here. The pricing model I was originally going for wasn't going to be suitable for how I want to build it. So instead I decided to offer each service as it's own product instead of a package deal. In the future, hopefully, I will be able to do this and offer discounts to those that choose it.

      Here is how the pricing is laid out for each service as well as information about each. This is as of 7/12/2020.

      Single MySQL database (up to 30 GB) is $10 USD per month.



      If you go over the 30 GB usage for the database then each additional gigabyte is charged at $0.10 USD each billing cycle. If you're under 30GB you don't need to worry about this.


      Databases are replicated across 3 zones (regions) for redundancy. One (1) on the east coast of the USA, One (1) in Frankfurt, and One (1) in Singapore. Depending on the demand, this would grow to more regions.


      Databases will also be backed up daily and retained for 7 days.




      Procon Layer will be $2 USD per month.


      Each layer will only allow one (1) game server connection. The reason behind this is for performance.


      Each layer will also come with all available plugins installed by default. This is to help facilitate faster deployments and get you up and running quickly.


      Each layer will automatically restart if Procon crashes. 


      Each layer will also automatically restart daily at midnight to make sure it stays in tip-top shape.


      Custom plugins can be installed by submitting a support ticket.




      Battlefield Admin Control Panel (BFACP) will be $5 USD per month


      As I am still working on building version 3 of the software, I will be installing the last version I did. Once I complete version 3 it will automatically be upgraded for you.





      All these services will be managed by me so you don't have to worry about the technical side of things to get up and going.

      If you would like to see how much it would cost for the services, I made a calculator that you can use. It can be found here https://ezrcon.com/calculator.html

    • I have pushed out a new minor release which updates the geodata pull (flags in the playerlisting). This should be way more accurate now. As always, please let me know if any problems show up.
