Hi,
If I use the following command's like:

!kick, !ban !tempban !permban

B3 syays that the player is kicked, banned BUT the player keep in the server, but only if the map changed the player will be kicked/banned.

Why???

I use this plugins:

Code:

 
    <plugin name="spamcontrol" priority="1" config="@b3/conf/plugin_spamcontrol.xml"/>
    <plugin name="admin" priority="2" config="@b3/conf/plugin_admin.xml"/>
    <plugin name="stats" priority="3" config="@b3/conf/plugin_stats.xml"/>
    <plugin name="pingwatch" priority="4" config="@b3/conf/plugin_pingwatch.xml"/>
    <plugin name="adv" priority="5" config="@b3/conf/plugin_adv.xml"/>
    <plugin name="status" priority="6" config="@b3/conf/plugin_status.xml"/>
    <plugin name="antinoob" priority="7" config="@b3/extplugins/conf/plugin_antinoob.xml"/>
    <plugin name="welcome" priority="8" config="@b3/conf/plugin_welcome.xml"/>
    <plugin name="publist" priority="9" config="@b3/conf/plugin_publist.xml"/>
     <plugin name="voting" priority="10" config="@b3/conf/voting.xml"/>

AND the strang thing is that it worked good before, but now not anymore :S help me please...

Kind regards,
Melroy vd Berg

IS your Mysql connection ok? Make sure that works as well as make sure in your configof your gameserver this setting is this way:

g_logsync 2

[Courgette]

the b3.log file is a good place to look at to understand what goes wrong

[danger89]

Ok thank you I read to read the log file (in debug mode).

@dakotaboul123
Yes My database connection is just fine, also my log settings in-game or the path to the log file
Very thing worked before just normal 
No idea what I changed so far

[dakotaboul123]

OMFG! Same thing is happening to me to and its really frusting me right now.I cant tell you how much >

Who's your Web hosting provider?

[dakotaboul123]

Sorry for the double post but are you using the standalone version or the python?

[dakotaboul123]

Ok Make sure your web hosting account doesn't have your server ips blocked mine did and i had them unblocked on remote sql and they had em blocked god knows where...

[danger89]

I don't think its a SQL problem. Because I can use other commands for example !admins, !lookup or !say. Both commands are working OK. However for example not !kick. Besides that I can !kick people when I run B3 for just 20 seconds but NOT when I run B3 for about 10 minutes.
But just for be sure I added the server IP to "Access Hosts" of the database.

I got a log file, 1 logfile named b3_nobug.txt which I used !kick without any problems and b3_bug.txt this log file the bug occurred.

Hint: try to search for setClientPenalty.

First the b3_bug.txt Log in Debug Mode (THE BUG, you will notice that I try to kick @222 twice without success)
Second the b3_nobug.txt Log in Verbose Mode (NO BUG discovered, functional normally)

For clarity, I tried in b3_nobug.txt kick @2501 and in the other kick @222...

Look at the attachments.

Ps.
Yes i'm using the python script. And yes everything worked normally for about 4 months.

Already thanks for find out what the problem is

Can you check into the penalty table if the kick has been saved into database (despite the fact the player was not kicked)

Also can you reproduce to bug with log level set to 9

Code:

<set name="log_level">9</set>

so we can see what's happening with RCON commands

Also provide your full b3.xml (remove passwords)

[danger89]

Log file within the bug (b3_3.log.txt) running at log level 9 & settings xml file (b3_3.xml.txt), look at my attachments...

Ps.
I try to kick Nitro.
And most of the time the kick will be successful after I changed the map or automatic maprotate.

[Courgette]

well, we can only provide support for B3 v1.2.1...
If you modified the bot code we cannot debug things in your code

[eire.32]

You say they are getting banned t the map change. B3 reloads the database at the map change. This shows that the Ban/penalty is making it into the DB all right.

Now how the banning works is you type in !ban Eire rule1 or what not. B3 will do things to ban the user. B3 will add a record of the Ban to the DB, which it seems your computer is doing. The other thing b3 does is it sends an rcon command to remove the user from the server. The RCON command is what gets them off the server, not a DB record.

Please look at line 20 of your b3.xml.

Code:

<set name="punkbuster">off</set>

What this line is about is whether or not B3 has access to PB on your game server.
Because this is set to off B3 will not run the command that will remove them from the server. Thus the player will not be removed until map change when the ban added to the DB gets kicked in. So you need to make sure your RCON access is correct and you need to set line 20 to read "on". Restart B3 to make sure this change takes affect. Once you have done that B3 should remove players from the server before map change.


EDIT: also on line 48 you will need to uncomment the PB plugin I think. (I'm not sure exactly whats in there but if it doesn't work with it commented you will need to uncomment it.)

for some reason the slot number for that guy was not found
on your next test, use the command !list
then kick with : !kick nitro

@Courgette
It's just version 1.2.1, but I maked an other version control for my self. In theory it's just the same  

@eire.32
I don't run punkbuster at the server, so I don't want to enable it. My own opinion is that I can decide whether punkbuster is on or off.
Reason is very simple, I got PB framedrops when I turn it on (no I tried alot to fix it) running CoD4.

@Courgette (next message)

VERBOSE   RCON sending (127.0.0.1:28961) clientkick None

I think this could be the problem!  
Ok, I will try to kick using !list insteed of !lookup <playername> and see if that make any difference.
It could be that B3 'forgot' the playerID when B3 need to kick/ban/etc. the player using rcon.

[Courgette]

@<id> represent the id of a player in database.
This is useful to ban a player after he left the game. You use !lookup to get his database id and ban with !ban @<id>

Now when you kick a player, this player (obviously) has to be in the game. Then why bother using !lookup and use its database id when you can just type !kick <the player name> ?

I made no test, but I suspect that using the database id will get back the player info from database (and from database only). The slot num used by a player is not saved in database (and that would be stupid anyway). Hence the bot seems unable to kick using a database id...
