channel admin status only temporary

[DaleE3]

for some reason i am haveing troubles with my channel admin rights .....i have a rented server and i can give channel admin rights to someone and my self but as soon as they leave the server and come back those rights are gone.these members and my self are registered with my server when im giveing these rights and i dont understand why they will not stay applied when given.if someone can anwer this issue it will be greatly appreciated!!!:) :) :)

Are You already try to solve this problem with Your hosting provider from which You rent that server?
I think it must be his mistake.

[WolfStar76]

Are the channels themselves registered?

Are you and your users logging in as regsitered?

Both of the above must be true for CA rights to be permanent.

If you're logging in as anonymous/unregistered the server doesn't have an "account" to tie the CA rights to (your "nick" can be changed at any time, and therefore can't be used for tracking).

yea the all the channels are checked as registered and all my users are registered to the server and coming in as registered.i can also create a sub channel that is registered and and a soon as i save it it will give me channel admin rights right away but if i leave the server and come back those rights are gone for that room.only rihgts i have are R and SA.in my control panel i can go in and edit a member and it shows there only registered or server admin.heres what the adminastrater of were i get my teamspeak server from had to say.

- The control panels are made by teamspeak itself. Ours is simply the same but in a nicer format then the one that comes default. In the MYSQL database for Saved Users there is only a field "ServerAdmin" either 1 or 0. 1 being ServerAdmins and 0 being Registered. If there were a way to save the others I would code it, im pretty sure its a different version because the non-SA/non-R users dont even have a place to save in this teamspeak database.

so i guess im back at it.if anyone is interested in comeing to my server to see what im talking about i would really appreciate that!!!!!

Well, I know there's an entry somewhere for maintining "CA" status, as I have a couple CA's on my server for a game or two.

With your hoster saying otherwise however, I'll step aside in the hopes that one of the TeamSpeak Team can better reply.

It sounds like your Host thinks "CA" isn't a status that can be saved - but in my experience that isn't true.

Peter? Thomas? Bastian? Any input here? Someone wanna set the record straight?

A long, long time ago, I can still remember, there was a TeamSpeak bug that made us cry.
You made someone an CA here
and made someone an CA there,
but the server didn't know then who you were.

Why, why, so much time has gone by.
We released a thousand updates which they didn't apply.
The bug is still there, and now you are here.
There's one thing that I would like to know.
Tell me your server version or go.

(Yes, I am crazy.)

The whole thing in normal English:

CA rights are being saved to the database in a table called ts2_channel_privileges. Once there was a server or database bug which caused channel flags to "jump" over to other user accounts. Some people suddenly lost their CA rights for a channel. Other people suddenly had CA rights in another channel. The whole channel privileges got mixed up. But this bug has been fixed years ago.

So either your host is running a stone age version of TeamSpeak 2, you are doing something seriously wrong, you didn't understand how the permissions system works, or something is seriously wrong with your server.

To find out the true nature of your problem, it would be useful to join your server and have a look at the problem. Unfortunately, I cannot do that from here.

Thomas or Peter might be able to help you.

Thomas or Peter might be able to help you.
Of course, PM me your server-ip.

well i did have a friend come in a take a look and this is what he had to say to the adminastraters.

- I am a server admin for which the owner of this teamspeak is a member of, and he has asked me to help him with this issue. I have been running teamspeak for around 4 years now, and know several others using teamspeak that manage their own servers. We all know how to run it, and have more than enough experience to claim knowledge on this issue. I also have a secondary server set up on a game server. The issue he is having is isolated to your teamspeak server(s). The ability for the CA (Channel Admin) to be saved per player when they exit the server is a normal function of teamspeak. None of the other admins I have spoken to nor myself have ever experienced this problem. If a Server Admin grants a Registered player CA rights, they should not lose those rights when they exit. As for versions, I currently run 2.0.22.1 on my primary, and you are using 2.0.20.1, but the version is not the issue. I have the same version as you 2.0.20.1 installed on my game server, and it does not have an issue. I have done extensive looking through everything offered in the control panel your servers are using, as well as the control panels through my hosting company and on the game server box I manage. There is no settings accessible via the control panel that I can find that would allow this issue to happen. My question would be are you copying files over to setup new servers, or actully running an .exe to install new servers? Perhaps you have an .sql file or config file that was somehow changed or corrupted, and hopefully it\'s not being used by multiple users, denying them a normal teamspeak function. Well hopefully you will figure it out, but I just wanted to try and help by verifying the way the CA function of Teamspeak should work. It should save when a user exits, just like the SA function does. It\'s just my opinion, so take it as you will, but this problem denies your customers the abililty to set up multiple levels of access and server control, and therefor denies them a feature normally included that they are paying for.

not sure what to do about this now!!!!wish the provider would fix this instead of sending me in circles

[WolfStar76]

You could always change providers.

[DaleE3]

i am allready planning that but not till my 40$ runs out with this provider!!!!!!i have allmost figured that this has to be due to the fact that this provider that im useing is running an older version of team speak on ther end.has to be no other explanation for this.makeavoice is deffinately headed the wrong way on getting clients to bye there service!!!!!

[PeterMAV]

We fixed the issue, it was a teamspeak read channel privilege error in the teamspeak mysql file.
Sorry for the inconvenience.

Thank you,

well to tell you the truth it was a big inconvenience cause i went out a rented from a new provider and spent more money after spending a week going back and forth with an adminastrater over this and they insisted that channel admin could not be saved.one of his replys was to upgrade to the beta version when the beta version wasnt the issue.i think it took my friend to leave a ticket for me to the adminastrater telling him what there issues were but still im the looser in this situation.im out $40 on a server.:mad: :mad: :mad:

Please discuss this with your hosting provider.
