Alternate Instructions & Fix For Folders Not Creating
So for anyone who can't get the folders to create or those who don't know where to look to give yourself permissions: look at your .bat file used for starting your server, check "-profiles=" this is where the permissions mod is supposed to create the files needed for this to work. Since the update to 1.0 it seems it will not create the folders BUT it will create the files IF the folders are there, SO solution is just create the folders for it as follows: find where your server profile is stored (just mentioned this "-profiles=(location)" and create these folders:
1. Create folder called: "CommunityOnlineTools"
2. Create folder called: "PermissionsFramework"
3. INSIDE CommunityOnlineTools folder create 2 more folders called: "GameModule_BaseBuilding" and "GameModule_Vehicles"
4. Back INSIDE PermissionsFramework folder create 1 more folder called: "Players".
5. Profit. All other steps are covered in mod description!

EDIT:
1. Double check spelling on folders and the folder structure, this is IMPORTANT
2. Several people I've helped recently have said their @mod folders were empty or corrupt check these and repair using DayZ launcher if still having issues!!
Here's a video for further help:
https://youtu.be/ci4qxlM1CRQ

Here is an example of the .bat file:
@echo off
start DayZServer_x64.exe -config=serverDZ.cfg -port=2302 -profiles=C:\DayZServer\ -freezecheck -noFilePatching "-mod=@RPCFramework;@Permissions Framework;@Community Online Tools;"

Optional parameters:
-cpuCount=4 - or whatever cpu count you want
-scrAllowFileWrite - I don't think this works anymore but it was used for this mod pre 1.0

I was attempting to log into my server to then go find the player key, did I do the .bat file wrong I presume? I posted what I did below. If you don't mind helping me out I really appreciate it, im sure its frustrating having so many questions.


@echo off
start DayZServer_x64.exe -config=serverDZ.cfg -port=2302 "-mod=@mod" -profiles=ServerProfile_1 -dologs -adminlog -netlog "-mod=@RPCFramework;@Permissions Framework;@Community Online Tools;"
"-mod=@mod" - remove this, make sure you're running from launcher with mods activated

I got the menue comin up in DayZ, I just cant spawn stuff, the file that is supposed to be located in the server profiles, persmissionsframework is not appearing.
I have checked my BatFile, I have checked every single step and watched all of your vids and the developers thread. I read all and checked all.. I am frustrated... I am not the usual guy who comments... but I cant get it runnin...
Can't help you if you don't show what you have done. Just saying "I've done everything right but it won't work" isn't going to get you anywhere. Post contents of your .bat file and list the folders inside your server profile folder if you want help.

"-mod=@mod" this is telling your server to load a mod called @mod, even if it doesn't exist and then it checks to see if your client is running all of the mods listed. Which includes a non existant mod called @mod

edit -♥♥♥♥♥♥that didn't work either my man. Here is what I had, tried to launch from the dayz launcher with mods active and still got kicked from the game for modified files.


@echo off
start DayZServer_x64.exe -config=serverDZ.cfg -port=2302 -profiles=ServerProfile_1 -dologs -adminlog -netlog "-mod=@RPCFramework;@Permissions Framework;@Community Online Tools;" "-scrAllowFileWrite" "-filePatching"


the error message I get is "you were kicked from game. (Modified data from dayzWorkshop@community online tools\addons\gui.pbo

Also within my ServerProfile_1 folder I have created CommunityOnlineTools and PermissionsFramework with no spaces as well as the sub directories of GameModule_BaseBuilding and GameModule_Vehicles in COT and Players within PF.

If you want to allow hackers on your server then do this OR you can put -noFilePatching to help prevent hackers from ruining your day ;)

I can open the Menu, but i cant spawn Vehcicles and Buldings, cant teleport and more things. In the folders "CommunityOnlineTools\GameModule_BaseBuilding" and "CommunityOnlineTools\GameModule_Vehicles" theree are no files. Is in the Folder a Data Files or not? Where i can download these 2 Folders with all Files?

If you have set it up correctly it will create the files automagically. If your server profile folder is inside Program Files (or x86) somewhere then that is probably the cause, set your server profile to be just in C:\DayzServerProfile or something like this

Ok, I've tried this at least a dozen ways to get this to work with no success. No file is created under "\PermissionsFramework\Players\"

Creating the folders (with -profiles=ServerProfile) specified didn't work when placed in:

"...\steamapps\common\DayZServer"
"C:\users\USER\"
"C:\"
"D:\[etc..]"
"...\USER\Documents\DayZ\"
"...\USER\Documents\DayZ Other Profiles\"
"...\USER\AppData\Local\Dayz\"

When I set up the ServerProfile folder, I can see all the basic stuff being dropped in there when I boot up the server, just not anything from this mod.

I even copied over the text and made a new batch file to match what was in the posted video with no success.

I aslo tried splitting up the mods so that each has their own "-mod="

Lastly, I checked the logs in that ServerProfile folder, and found the following:

20:37:25 ANIMATION (E): Can't load @Community Online Tools/Anims/cfg/skeletons.anim.xml

20:37:25 ANIMATION (E): Failed to open file, line 0, column 0

20:37:25 ANIMATION (E): Can't load @Permissions Framework/Anims/cfg/skeletons.anim.xml

20:37:25 ANIMATION (E): Failed to open file, line 0, column 0

20:37:25 ANIMATION (E): Can't load @RPCFramework/Anims/cfg/skeletons.anim.xml

@EzE please post the contents of your .bat file

This is currently what I'm using:

@echo off

start DayZServer_x64.exe -config=serverDZ.cfg -profiles=F:\ServerProfile\ -port=2302 -dologs -adminlog -netlog -freezecheck -instanceid=1 "-mod=@RPCFramework;@Permissions Framework;@Community Online Tools" -scrAllowFileWrite -filePatching

Okay so first up you can remove "-scrAllowFileWrite -filePatching" because the first one has been removed from the game and the second one is not actually a command, there's -noFilePatching if you want to disable it but by default it's on. I would disallow it because it allows hackers to use modified files. You also forgot ; after @Community Online Tools
