I can't get ULX working on my TTT server

Post by Giorgio »

ULX is not working for some reason on my garrysmod TTT server. I've tried uninstalling all ulx files and re-installing with SVN so that's not an option. Please help :)

Have you also installed Ulib on your server? This can be done using the same SVN tool on the Easy Setup tab of your control panel.

Is it hosted on Linux? If so MAKE SURE the folder's name is lowercase.
ULib = ulib
ULX = ulx

That actually applies to Windows as well. Garry's mod doesn't like capital letters in general.

I have never experienced that. With windows I have had addons with names like Addon_Example and it works perfectly. moving to Linux causes it not to work until you make all characters lower case.

It may not do it with addons, but it does it with gamemodes and I've seen some issues with fastdl because of it. Though, it's definitely not as bad as Linux.

Yeah when you tell clients which files to download, they are case sensitive. Apache won't search for different case files and will return a 404 error.

For example, this is the real file name on a map for our CS:S server:
http://soja.hosted.nfoservers.com/fastd ... _3.bsp.bz2

If I change a single character to a different case, the download will fail:
http://soja.hosted.nfoservers.com/fastd ... _3.bsp.bz2
(the lowercase r changed)
Something that had me stumped for a while when clients would disconnect with a missing map error :P
