Maps not saving to matchsettings file.

Hi all, I have search the forum for this topic and haven't found anything.
I setup my server (TM2 Stadium) and all is working well with the basic Nadeo white maps. However, I want to add dirt maps and when I do so from MX using the admin command "/admin add <ID>" it adds the map to my server, however it doesn't write it into my matchsettings file. I'm sure I have some config wrong somewhere and I have searched Google and these forums and hvaen't found anything to help with my issue. Any help would be appreciated.

What about chmod values are they 777?
Do you run windows or Linux servers?

That could be because you seem to be on the wrong forum site. You don't mention it, but you appear to be talking about XAseco2 functionality, which is discussed
here, and you shouldn't even have to post there either since its configuration is documented quite extensively
here.

No Xypmh, it's not just an Xaseco issue, it's an issue that is not writing to my matchsettings file and I have extensively read everything in the links you provided and have not found a solution. In TM United I ran servers without a problem but there are minor changes to Maniaplanet server and I'm looking for help.

I have checked the Config.xml file in Xaseco2 folder and the <default_maplist> is set to my matchsettings file but yet it still will not edit my matchsettings file when I add a track from MX using the /admin add <ID> command in chat.

Maybe this :
rasp.setting.php line 64
Code: Select all
//Set to filename to enable autosaving matchsettings upon every map switch
$autosave_matchsettings = ''; // e.g. 'autosave.txt'

Done. Still doesn't work
Code: Select all
//Set to filename to enable autosaving matchsettings upon every map switch
$autosave_matchsettings = 'TMStadiumA.txt'; // e.g. 'autosave.txt'

I figured it out. I had to import the "xaseco2.sql" into my xaseco2_db in PHPmyadmin.
On the old TMU those files were already there in the "localdb folder" but that folder does not exist in Xaseco2. So it's not clear anywhere that you have to import "xaseco2.sql" into the PHP database.
I'm sorry if I wasted anyone's time.

I don't understand how running some create-table statements in MySQL makes your matchsettings autosave work, as that isn't dependent on the database. Did you verify before the import that some table(s) was/were missing, and if so, which one(s)?
Are you aware that the autosave happens not immediately at
/admin add but at the end of the track before the next one is loaded? Maybe you expected the file to be rewritten sooner than it actually happens?

When setting up X2 for the first time, you should have followed the
quick start guide (also included in the .zip) where exactly that is described in step 4. But it also mentions that any table which doesn't exist yet is created automatically, hence the import shouldn't have made any difference to your problem.

No Xy
mph, it's not just an Xaseco
2 issue, it's an issue that is not writing to my matchsettings file and I have extensively read everything in the links you provided and have not found a solution. In TM United I ran servers without a problem but there are minor changes to Maniaplanet server and I'm looking for help.
I understand, but it's still an issue related to
server controller functionality, not the dedicated server by itself, that's why this topic belonged not in the subforum where you posted it before it was moved here, but in the X/X2 forum.
