You must be close to mine ore bug

[Flosstradamus]

Here is the scenario

 

40 people on the server

About an hour into a 2 hour restart the server decides it doesn't want to let anyone in. So it says requesting authentication and retrying authentication 10 times. Followed by the message You must be close to mine ore. Then it kicks them back to the player screen.

 

I for the life of me cannot figure out this issue. I beg of anyone to please help me out with this. Any of you developers know? Maybe Maca or dave from MGT? Cen?

Okay, I have found out what this means I'm pretty sure.
 

This is in Player_Monitor.fsm:
 

      name = "get_ready_to_clo";
      init = /*%FSM<STATEINIT""">*/"diag_log (""PLOGIN: Authentication Failed ("" + _playerUID + "")"");" \n
       "dayz_loadScreenMsg = (localize ""str_player_32"");" \n
       "" \n

And here is the stringtable.xml correlation:

        <Key ID="str_player_32">
            <Original>\n\nYou must be close to a rock to mine ore.</Original>
            <English>\n\nYou must be close to a rock to mine ore.</English>

So if you get this message, it is an error with authentication. I haven't found str_player_32 mentioned anywhere else.

what can cause an authentication fail?

 

I have a .sqf file that provides some custom loadouts, that also includes my default loadout.

 

would the basic.cfg cause this? or my my.ini file with the database?

 

perhaps my infistar?

 

I would LOVE to find out what is causing this.

A little bit of both... I have been using the same basic.cfg for a few weeks, and just trying to adjust the my.ini by looking around at ways to optimize it.  I have seen this a couple of times still, but usually it passes. My guess is that if the SQL doesn't return the query from epoch it spits this out.

 

That's just my guess though, I'm not a master at this stuff by any means, i do a lot of guessing and trial and error.

i wouldnt mind getting a copy of your my.ini of you get it running smoothly... do you use 5.6 or 5.5 sql?

The one I posted up above is the same ini from Mystykall. Were both from Blackhole

Well i'm glad its not just me getting this, i've made the changes to basic.cfg listed in this thread and its not solved my problems i'm running on a dedicated with this connection speed http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/3611005468 the most weird thing is i'm running two servers on this machine, one Overpoch Chernarus the other Panthera, Panthera works perfectly fine, Chernarus however just does this then says "You must be close to a rock to mine ore" and kicks back to lobby menu, i personally have no idea whats causing it as it was working perfectly.

EDIT: Restarted the server 3-4 hours after locking it to see if a custom map addon caused the issue and it seems to be perfectly fine now, no idea what it was as my Panthera server was running great, oh well i say, at the end of the day this is ArmA, ArmA is buggy, ArmA is glitchy but ArmA is love! Glad i can get back to my LAV :D

EDIT #2: Infistar AH menu update, lets see if this fixes my issues, will report back

EDIT #3: Its seems that i had a few other issues with my custom donor features that was causing this, i made the fixes and it worked fine xD i guess the other changes helped out too

I'm getting the same issue with my hoster and all they say is its a change that I have made by adding scripts and such and I know this to be false. I have a server with this hoster (not naming) Vilayer and my home server, Now Vilayer and my home server running Overpoch on the cherno map works perfectly but for some reason on this hoster (Not naming) I get all the same issues as a few of you here are facing.

 

I have not been able to play the server correctly from day one even with basic files I get these issues... the weird thing is when they install the files it works for a little bit then all of a sudden it goes to hell after a restart or two.

 

I have explained to them what I have read on this forum and gave them a link to check it out and I explained how the files I use work 100% on both other servers.. I have asked them what there connection to there SQL is like as today there has been some issues with there connection to the website and the control panel.

 

I have asked for them to check the connection or move me to another box.. Would you think moving to a new box may eliminate my issues...

 

ISSUES:

#1 the Mine ore thing...

#2 traders take for ever to load items literally like 2 minutes on each category.

#3 Retrying to authenticate thing.

 

I have had enough lobby time to last a life time.

 

#4 they also had connection issues to control panel today.

#5 they had website connection issues.

#6 there forums where down also..

 

I am a little annoyed of them blaming my files when I have tested them on my home server and there fine. I then move to Overpoch cherno and upload my files from Vilayer and I still have the same issues I have had for like 3 days now.. I cant even work on modding my server because I need to find an answer to all these issues first. Its just annoying that "US" the people paying them are always In the wrong and its always our fault.. In this case it is not and I want something done about it I am sick of it been overlooked..
