BattlEye Extended Controls - Scheduler Question

[Lith 80]

I'm trying to configure messages to scroll right before my server restarts. I'm connecting just fine with the program but no matter what options I choose for the scheduler to send a message, I'm not seeing it in the Console view. I've tried specifying the full path to the .XML file and just using the recommended line for it. Even a line as simple as this isn't showing:

1

1,2,3,4,5,6,7

1

say -1 Test

0

Any help from anyone that has this working would be appreciated.

If it seems like the scheduler just is not working at all make sure you added it to the BEC config file

Scheduler = scheduler.xml

scheduler.xml goes in the same place as the rest of the config .xml files.

[Lith 80]

Yeah I did. Could it be something to do with me using the public IP to connect to it instead of the internal IP even though it's really residing on the server?

[Lith 80]

Bump please.

[goodspellar 4]

I'd like to know this also

[rabble-rouser 3]

I'll try and post what I got here in a bit sorry been trying to keep up with server hanging.

[Lith 80]

Thanks dead.

[Lith 80]

Bumping this. Still cannot get scheduler to work for myself.

[ebianbluefox 29]

copy the contents of your scheduler and I'll take a look at it.

[Lith 80]

Scheduler.xml Contains:

?xml version="1.0"?>
<Scheduler>

<job id="0">
<time>1</time>
<day>1,2,3,4,5,6,7</day>
<loop>1</loop>
<cmd>say -1 Test</cmd>
<cmdtype>0</cmdtype>
</job>

</Scheduler>

Config.cfg Contains:

[Bec]
Ip = 69.162.82.210
Port = 2302
BePath = C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\arma 2 operation arrowhead\cfgdayz\BattlEye
LogDir = BECDayZ
Admins = Admins.xml
Commands = Commands.xml
Scheduler = C:\BEC\Config\Scheduler.xml

Well, I think your time command is off.

If you want ot to repeat every one minute, try this:

<time>000100</time>

It is formulated as HRMISS (2 digits hour, 2 digits minute, 2 digits second).

[ebianbluefox 29]

It's your time It has to be 6 digits long (HHMMSS) if your doing it by the minute instead of exact time. SO one minute would be 000100

Okay so that was what I was trying to test with. Here's my original scheduler:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<Scheduler>

<job id="0">

<day>1,2,3,4,5,6,7</day>

<cmdtype>0</cmdtype> 
</job>

<job id="1">

<day>1,2,3,4,5,6,7</day>

<cmdtype>0</cmdtype> 
</job>

</job>

<loop>0</loop> 
<cmd>say -1 Server will be restarting in 1 minute. Please prepare accordingly.</cmd> 
<cmdtype>0</cmdtype> 
</job>

<job id="6">

<day>1,2,3,4,5,6,7</day>
<loop>0</loop> 
<cmd>say -1 TESTING SCHEDULER!</cmd> 
<cmdtype>0</cmdtype> 
</job>
</Scheduler>

[Sna.ke 43]

Just out of curiousity, why do you not initiate the #shutdown command in your scheduler script?

[Lith 80]

Because I'm already running scripts I don't feel like changing for that.

[SubEclipse 22]

Did you ever figure this out? I got BEC running today and am having the same problem... scheduler doesn't seem to want to run anything I throw at it.

For instance, this does not run:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<Scheduler>

<job id="0">
<time>0000020</time>
<day>1,2,3,4,5,6,7</day>
<loop>1</loop>
<cmd>say -1 Testing scheduler</cmd>
<cmdtype>0</cmdtype>

</Scheduler>

Here is my scheduler.xml. I had an extensive talk with the creator of bec. He helped me out with everything I needed.

If that is how it looks, you forgot to add </job> at the end of it

Nope. Never figured it out. Can't get it to work on a timed schedule at all.

[ryahn 112]

If you would like I could teamviewer you to help you out.

Thanks... unfortunately it was just a bad cut/paste and edit job on my part here... I had the close job tag on my server.

I actually tried using your scheduler code as well with no luck.

I'll give it another go this afternoon, and maybe I'll take you up on your offer to look over teamviewer if I strike out.

I'll pm you my ID/Pass and Ventrilo info if all else fails.

Thanks.

It's weird... I tried everything that you tried as well, using full paths to the file from Myconfig.cfg, etc. Relative paths must be working, since my Admins.xml file is working.

[SubEclipse 22]

P.S. I don't think controls is working properly in my case, either.

You have 7 digits in your time value, like someone said earlier in this thread it's supposed to be hhmmss.

Good catch, I think I had it correctly set with 6 digits in testing, but I'm trying again now.
