well BEC ingame messages shows when an admin connects, and we can run kick/ban commands so its not like nothing is working, just the uptime command. Are there any idiot things i should check, things ive should have done in the install that would stop it from being able to run, like setting up a group 100 admin level or anything like that? Running on a windows server 2008 dedi box, how we run it? i just start it up by using the desktop shortcut after the server has been turned on. the shortcut has the -f config setting on it. if bec goes down, doesn't happen often but now and then it has, we just reuse the desktop shortcut. Use it to give out the automated server messages, and to initiate the server restarts.

okay here goes, these are exactly as they are in the files, straight copy and paste. admins.xml commands.xml

hello, thanks for getting back to me. 1 V 1.49.8 2 no, i must have missed that command line in the setup readme, ive since put " --dsc " at the end, it now read " -f Config.cfg --dsc" only issue is now my scheduled text/restart doesn't seem to be working, where as before i added the --dsc they were? 3 error log shows 11:10:35 : Parsing the Admin File Failed, Recheck The File : XML or text declaration not at start of entity: line 1, column 1 i have since redone it and now doesn't generate and error while joining the server 4 i have cleared out my command list apart from 3-4 commands, so i think i have checked the order off properly but you never know. Is it worth copying my .xml onto here to see if there is a problem with them? also i dont need to do anything in the admin.xml to setup group 100 as public users or anything?

So im relatively new to the arma 2oa server hosting scene, and ive got BEC up and running with a few admins going and most of the commands work, well the ones that we use/need anyway. All but one, and that's the uptime command. Now, ive seen the code written out two different ways this one from the commands_examples, different usage line and group number <command id="5"> <name>!upt</name> <group>100</group> <cmd>uptime</cmd> <time></time> <text></text> <desc>USAGE :: !upt :: INFO -> Show Server Uptime.</desc> </command> and this one from the online explanation walk through guide. <command id="22"> <name>!upt</name> <group>10</group> <cmd> uptime</cmd> <time></time> <text></text> <desc>INFO :: Show server uptime</desc> </command> Now, i want everyone on the server to be able to exectue the command so it needs to be group 100, but then no one seems able to get ti to run (ive read about chat channels, and make sure my posts are tested in global/group) Anyone got any ideas on where ive gone wrong with this?
