ACL problem

[Drakath]

It says that it expected ACL at argument 1.

It outputs "got" and "NOT". What's the problem? I used an example from wiki but it doesn't work.

function func(thePlayer) 
  
local group = aclGetGroup("CustromACL") 
if group then 
   outputChatBox("got", thePlayer) 
end 
   local bool = aclRemoveRight(group,"command.kick") 
   aclReload() 
   if bool then 
   outputChatBox("removed", thePlayer) 
   else 
   outputChatBox("NOT", thePlayer) 
   end 
    
end 
addCommandHandler("remv", func)

Does the resource has the ACL permission to edit ACL groups?

[Drakath]

I did add the resource to Admin group. If it wouldn't have that right it would output Access denied error right?

Guess so. But it did fail. If I'm correct "if group then" will only fail if it's nil? Try "if (group ~= false) or (group ~= nil) then" and also be sure the ACL right does even exists.

[Drakath]

If group is both for false and nil. The fact is that the right was not removed. This group does have command.kick

Besides, aclGetGroup does return me the ACL group since it does output "got".

[Drakath]

Maybe it can only remove it from the ACL group? Stuff like user.lalala and I want to remove an actual right which is in ACL that just belongs to this group, however that does not explain why it gives me an error that it expected ACL in the first argument.

You are confusing ACLs with ACL groups. You can't remove a right from an ACL group, you can remove right from an ACL.

Try aclGet() instead of aclGetGroup()

I've also fixed the example on aclRemoveRight cause it was wrong.

Thanks, it is working now.
