Today none of my team could get onto our server. I opened up RCon and tried to join and noticed right away that I didn't have a GUID. I was then kicked by Battleye for not having a GUID as was everyone on my server.

What's the cause of this? I had to turn BE off to allow folks to get on the server.

I'm having the same problem on two servers running ArmA 2. One is linux, other is windows. It just started today after the BE update apparently. I've tried manually updating the beserver.dll, beserver.so, and beclient.dll but no luck. Everyone, including myself, gets kicked for Invalid GUID or something. Of course, turning off BE solves this problem but that's not really a permanent solution for me.

On a sidenote, the MD5 sum I'm getting for the beserver.so from http://www.battleye.com/download.html is not matching what is on that web page...

[nomad_man 10]

Tylenol the same here. Md5sum that we've got

4848af91b47bb75a8eaed786562a096c beserver.so

And people are getting kicked left and right, with Invalid Guid. It appears to be happening to people who are running beta, but not to all of them.

0:07:16 BattlEye Server: Player #21 TAW_MASKED(-) has been kicked by BattlEye: Invalid GUID
NetServer::SendMsg: cannot find channel #498469466, users.card=21
NetServer: users.get failed when sending to 498469466
Message not sent - error 0, message ID = ffffffff, to 498469466 (TAW_MASKED)

Is it correct that you guys are running ArmA 2 (not OA) servers?

I'm really sorry for this problem. I'm currently working on a fix for this.

Yes that is the same MD5 checksum I have for my beserver.so . We are not running beta on either of our servers.

I'm really sorry for this problem. I'm currently working on a fix for this.

Yes I am running ArmA 2 servers (ArmA 2 free compatible, non OA). Thanks for responding so quickly $able =) Let me know if you need any more information.

The fix has just been released. Keep in mind that unfortunately you have to manually update your BE Server version for ArmA 2 from http://www.battleye.com/download.html.

Again, I'm really sorry that this happened. If there are still any problems, please let me know immediately.

I can confirm the new beserver.so is working now. Many thanks $able and awesome work on the new features =]

Problem with cyrillic nicknames after BE update. They can't connect to servers.

17:23:17 BattlEye Server: Player #25 ЛЕГЫЧ (-) has been kicked by BattlEye: Bad Player Name

[larsiano 12]

I have replaced the beserver.so on our Linux-A2 server as sugested. But some people still get kicked.

And he is not the only one.

Funny thing is the system removed the ' í ' from his name:

Sys log.:

18:49:15 Player Zel69 kicked off by BattlEye: Bad Player Name

18:49:15 Player Zel69 disconnected.

Real info (should have been):

18:49:15 Player Zelí69 kicked off by BattlEye: Bad Player Name

18:49:15 Player Zelí69 disconnected.

[$able 2]

The name-related kicks will be fixed shortly.

[nuxil 2]

there was/is a problem with arma. if players have chars that are outside the ascii range. some of the chars becomes invisible to players. meaning. ie. if i where to use a nick only haveing €€€€. my name would be blank for other. i guess this is a fix for that. so rename your player to Zeli69.

edit.: see able is working on it :p

but this it the best bug i ever seen :D

Same problem here with our tag: [PØ].

"Bad player name" error.

[$able 2]

The name-related kicks will be fixed shortly.

BE Server v1.126 has been released.

It will update itself automatically on the server, right $able?

Seems so but after the update, that said it was successful it crached the server during the restart of BE. Now all seems fine lets now wait for a player with a weird symbol in his name.:bounce3:

[Hud Dorph 22]

Yer same here - servercrash after update to 1.26 - but after restart all fine.

I'd like to know the answer too.

The issue is still there.

I'm not sure if it auto-updated, but you can use the "version" command in RCon to check.

Either its just me, or only Lobby & GLOBAL channels are broadcasted to BERCon on a Arrowhead server

BTW, would it be possible, that we could see the chat messages in the RCON tool in different colors?

yes and no..

global and lobby gets broadcasted to server all the time.

but for side chat to get broadcasted and logged . players on your side is needed.

vehicle chat only gets broadcasted and logged if players are in your vehicle. so on..

Problem fixed.

The server didn't automatically update because no player could join.

Manually updating beserver.so solved it.
