[Stevengamer]

You need to make sure you have the double brackets at the beginning and end of that statement

 

adminMenu_Owner[] = {{"76561xxxxxxxxx","1Man"},{"76561xxxxxxxx","1Man"},{"76561xxxxxxxx","ffmedic88"}};

[Stevengamer]

yes they are there

[Richie]

Your Steam ID is just your player ID, they start with a 7

Double check you have the right numbers.

[Stevengamer]

yes we have the right numbers

[RC_Robio]

Did you put the watchdog folder in the Bec plugins folder?

[Moldofe]

Look at the post #8

I gonna try this tonight...

[Stevengamer]

yes we put the watchdog folder indside the BEC plugins

[nedfox]

As I'm a system admin I *never* trust someone who says : yes I've done that.

 

Can you post the relevant lines from epochAH.hpp ?

adminMenu_Owner[] = {{"76561xxxxxxxxx","1Man"},{"76561xxxxxxxx","1Man"},{"76561xxxxxxxx","ffmedic88"}};

work for me: adminMenu_Owner[] = {{"765xxxxxxxxxxxx95","NAME"}}; //{{"STEAMID","ADMINNAME"},{"STEAMID","ADMINNAME2"},...}; ADMINNAME will be used for the Admin log instead of in-game name.

Nice. I wrestled setting this up last night took me a few hours to get mine working. I had a small pathing issue and I had to add a slight tweak to my publicvariable.txt file.

I have tried this and still cant get the admin menu to show up when i push F1. BEC is not throwing any errors and watchdog is loading.

You had your name in the wrong spot.  If that still doesn't work then remove one set of {} brackets around your name.  That spot is meant to be an array for multiple admin names.  I'm not sure if since you only have one name (yours) in the array if you still need both sets of brackets or not.

 

Note for future reference:  Whenever you see // with a line of text behind it that means that portion of code has been "commented out", meaning that anything after the // on that line will be ignored by the system.

[Richie]

This line is wrong :

[adminMenu_Owner[] = {}; //{{"765************78","David"}},{"STEAMID","ADMINNAME2"},...}; ADMINNAME will be used for the Admin log instead of in-game name.

 

It should be :

adminMenu_Owner[] = {{"765************78","David"}}; //{{"765************78","David"}},{"STEAMID","ADMINNAME2"},...}; ADMINNAME will be used for the Admin log instead of in-game name.

 

Anything after the   //  is ignored and used to show examples :)

[Uebermorgen]

adminMenu_Owner[] = {}; //{{"765************78","David"}},{"STEAMID","ADMINNAME2"},...}; ADMINNAME will be used for the Admin log instead of in-game name.

to

adminMenu_Owner[] = {{"765************78","David"}};

Okei. so i figured it out. now i can use kick/ban etc inside arma. and i can enter F1 and see admin tools. but now i get kicked each time i try to use it. get Public Variable Restriction #0)
im using a rented server. i cant fire up BEC it seems either. it seems it do that by himself ?

[B_Man]

A few threads going around on this topic but wanted to add something. While most of the problems are proper formatting issues within the config file, I recently had the same problem of the F1 not working. Tried everything and it wasn't until I "died" and respawned did it start working. So, now whenever I have the problem of F1 not working (and it is correctly set up and have been using it recently) I just off myself and respawn and in comes back working fine.

For whatever its worth.
