Player kicked off by BattlEye: PublicVariable Restriction #0

[CaptainReid]

Hi,

 

I've recently setup a DayZ epoch mod server; and I'm having the following errors when i try to connect to the server (I get to the team select menu and load in).

 

The following errors are displayed in my server console:

 Player Preid2905 kicked off by BattlEye: PublicVariable Restriction #0

 "ERROR: Cannot Sync Character Preid2905 as no characterID"

Does anyone know how to fix these?

[DeanReid]

this and see how it goes :)

 

 

That name though ;D

Try what sorry? I've looked at that post previously and can't quite work out what was meant....

 

Nice name :P

[CaptainReid]

Ah; where do i get battle eye filters? 

I have the ones that come with the linux server files 

[DeanReid]

Do you have infiSTAR? 

 

If you do then use the Battleye Filters provided in the zip file he emails you.

 

If not then use the filters in expansion/battleye here https://github.com/denisio/Dayz-Epoch-Linux-Server

 

if that fails to work then in Steam, right click ArmA 2 & ArmA 2 OA and go to properties then Local Files Then Click " Verify Integrity of Game Cache"

[CaptainReid]

Ooohh; I've possibly fixed the PublicVariable restriction issue by removing all files from the battleye folder and grabbing the latest version of battleye here http://battleye.com/download.html

 

 

Still having the other issue though, working on it now

[CaptainReid]

Do you have infiSTAR? 

No, i don't. I do intend to install it though

[CaptainReid]

Any idea how to fix

"ERROR: Cannot Sync Character Preid2905 as no characterID"

[CaptainReid]

Can now connect!

 

But get "authentication timeout" after a few secs

since you don't have infiSTAR I recommend you get the default files from the Epoch Server Zip that you download here http://goo.gl/3GyZ0Pas these will be the latest, make sure that you check the mods you are trying to install don't require any edits to Battleye filters as I know a few do.

Thats a problem a lot of people have its nothing to worry about.

Make sure Battleye is upto date, latest one for Linux is here

 

http://www.battleye.com/downloads/arma2oa/beserver.so

 

replace the one in expansion\battleye with that. and it should solve the problem

Yeah...I've got the most recent version....This is just weird

When I add those it seems to bring back the  PublicVariable Restriction #0 issue :/

 

I can only ever seem to connect when there is nothing in the expansion/battleye folder but the beserver.so

[DeanReid]

Have you got any mods installed into your mission?

 

also can you try these and see if they work?

 

Filters

 

Its the filters infiSTAR provides, these should work even if you don't have the anti-hack yet 

[jahangir13]

Hm, on a fresh server you should not get kicked. And removing the files for sure helps (hackers ;) ).

There is something wrong with your installation I would say.

 

if (_characterID == "0") exitWith {
    diag_log ("ERROR: Cannot Sync Character " + (_name) + " as no characterID");
};

 

The question is why your characterID is 0.

Post your dump.log file so that we can see what happens there? Delete the content (> dump.log) and restart the server. Maybe we can see something there.

[CaptainReid]

My dump.log can be found here (prior to below steps)

 

It really is weird this issue 

 

I'm going to try out the filters dean supplied and see if the issue occurs with them present ("Epoch AND OverPoch" filters? Or is that for a case where you are running overpoch and epoch together?)

 

With the above filters i was getting kicked for "BattlEye: Script Restriction #20"

 

With the DayZ 1.8.2 filters i get kicked for "BattlEye: Script Restriction #21"

 

I'll empty the log and restart the server  and post a freshlog as requested later on, got to go out now

Hi CaptainReid:

./epoch.sh: line 1: ./epoch: No such file or directory  (<-- where is this coming from?)

 

Hm from the log I do not see something special.

 

This I see every day:

17:04:48 Player Preid2905 connecting.
17:04:48 Mission DayZ Epoch Chernarus read from bank.
17:04:52 Player Preid2905 disconnected.
17:04:52 BattlEye Server: Player #0 Preid2905 disconnected

 

I think it's related that people have wrong extensions enabled in the game menu (so Epoch and DayZ activated there...sonething like that). Can you connect to other Epoch servers?

 

If nothing helps I would delete content of table Character_DATA and delete all directories in cache/players/ to see what happens then. Maybe you've started once where the installation has not been finished yet or something and you got a wrong character line in the table which you now uses every time.

[DeanReid]

This is the filters, Server and Mission for My server try these and if you still get kicked then files then we can try another approach s4.vlhosting.co.uk/CptReid.zip

I can connect to other epoch servers fine. It's really weird. To confirm I need 1.8.2 DayZ mod for 1.0.5.1 Epoch mod?

 

Working on what you requested the other day now. Back at my pc

[CaptainReid]

I'm working on getting fresh logs with each of the filters,

 

Here's the log from the default epoch filters.

You don't need the DayZ mod at all Epoch comes with DayZ files

Here's the log from the default epoch filters.

 

Are you using the very latest linux Epoch files from the github?

19:20:09 Warning Message: No challenge value was received from the master server.
19:20:09 GameSpy QR2 error: 5, No challenge value was received from the master server.

This should no longer show if so. 

 

Upload all of these files and keep them as default apart from writer for your database details

Did that, now here's the new log, still getting timeouts..

 

Still trying out other filters.

 

Dump with the Epoch and Overpoch Filters . Causes issue: kicked off by BattlEye: Script Restriction #20

 

Using Dean's filters. Still same issue as before: Authentication Timeout

 

 

On the possibility that i have a bad setup:

Here's a recursive ls -alh of my dayz server dir.

[DeanReid]

Can you send me your mission/server file and the filters you are using when you get kicked 

[CaptainReid]

Filters

 

What's the other file you want?

 

Additional note:

 

O.o

 

I just realised...I have a beserver.so in /cfgdayz/battleye and in /expansion/battleye. Is that right?

[DeanReid]

You only need them in /expansion/battleye 

 

and if possible the mission and server.pbo

[CaptainReid]

Hmmmmm...

 

I don't have a mission.pbo or a server.pbo..

 

I did a find -name "*.pbo" in my server dir. And this list was returned
