Okay new problem, i got the server running, i can join it mani is working but i cant acess admin without using rcon. when i start my server after server.cfg is loaded it says
"couldn't exec ./mani_admin_plugin/defaults.cfg"
so i dont know if it didnt get installed or if i missed a step...?

[Needhelp112]

same thing happend to me i set everything up but i still when i press v i cant get in

[Drocona]

This thread is not about mani admin plugin.

Maybe you can try to search the mani forums since this is a common error, there should even be solutions on this forum.
Just use the search.
