BanListURL not working/ignored

Recommended Posts

Hey I have a gportal server I tried to use the BanListURL in ShooterGame/Saved/Config/WindowsServer/GameUserSettings.ini

Under the section: [ServerSettings]

BanListURL="http://sunnybanlist.axi92.at/banlist.txt"

But the server ignores everybody I add to that list, everybody can join. Tried restarting the server after editing the banlist. Nothing works.

What am I doing wrong?

Whitelist, adminlist and local banlist is empty.

I guess the next thing to try is to download the banlist on the Ark server to see if its accessible from there...

wget -O bl.txt http://sunnybanlist.axi92.at/banlist.txt
wget for Windows is here... http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/wget.htm 

Also look at the web server's access and error logs to see if the banlist is being read by the ark server.

Digging up the dead, but...

 

I found out that my banlist.txt that is hosted on a web server only works with a single entry in it. As soon as i add a second line, it is ignored. 

the file consists only of the steam ID's, one in every line, in form of:

7656119839854xxxx
7656119881102xxxx
7656119886276xxxx
7656119904259xxxx
7656119831858xxxx
7656119886341xxxx
7656119804535xxxx
7656119807052xxxx
7656119796052xxxx
7656119899753xxxx

so in theory it should work, but id doesn't

If i leave a single ID in there it works perfectly.

 

Has something changed in the syntax? some separation mark? i tried spaces, comma, semicolon, nothing worked.

May be your issue. I remember DW causing issues for me a long time ago.
