Hi people, I got my free VPS from host1free.com. I have a problem with the server(permissions, I think), I started the server with putty, I registered on server and the problem starts; the player file (.ini file) doesn't create, after i restarted server I had to re-register with the same name. So my question is: Is there any solve for this? Does "chmod" has something to do with it?

If there is no way to solve it (easy/hard, doesn't matter) i'd like to know it because I don't like MySQL.

PS: I have modified in script player path: from "/scriptfiles/Users' to "/home/samp03/scriptfiles/User/". Still not workin'

If you don't know how to operate a Linux VPS, why did you get one in the first place? You're likely having issues with file/folder permissions so yes, you'll need to use chmod to change them. Or, just install an FTP server and use an FTP program to change the permissions w/o going through command line.

well, I want to start a server for some class mates because I already got the script, my PC can't handle ~20 players on it.

So, can you tell me the folder that I have to change persmissions? Thanks.

Running as root is like living without a front door for your house.

Solved, thanks everyone. It was a permission problem.
