Need help fixing servers
« on: January 17, 2013, 08:28:16 PM »
I am pretty much finished with setting up servers and a php match site, but I'm having some problems with my servers and the config files.

The server doesn't seem to update to my config files, and when I go in the game as an op or rcon, and try to change something, it says "no game loaded"... It seems like it might be a permission error, but what do I need to adjust?

(Linux)

Make sure whole paintball folder has read/write/execute permissions.  

If you want an easy solution just do:
chmod -R 777 /path/to/paintball2


It isn't best practice to give 777 but it will work.  I am not an expert with linux permissions, I believe the lowest you would need is 755.

Gives the owner of the file read/write/execute and all others just read.

Oh true, I gave things read and write, but I forgot execute. I'll change that tonight. Thanks!

It isn't best practice to give 666 but it will work.  I am not an expert with linux permissions, I believe the lowest you would need is 644.

Isnt it 777 and 755 ?

hmm, I set permissions to 777 for everything in paintball, but in game, when I try to change commands, it still says 'no game loaded'... Any other ideas?

Are you using the command "cvar_set x y"?
