Ace3: "...not signed by a key accepted by this server"

Created on 24 May 2020  路  10Comments  路  Source: acemod/ACE3

Mods (complete and add to the following information):

  • Arma 3: `1.98.146373
  • CBA: `3.15.1
  • ACE3: `3.13.2
    _Make sure to reproduce the issue with only CBA and ACE3 on a newly created mission!_

Description:
Error occurres when joining any Arma 3 server with ace and CBA_A3:
"\steamapps\common\Arma3!Workshop\@ace\addons\ace_advanced_ballistics.pbo are not signed by a key accepted by this server. To play on this server, remove listed files or install additional accepted keys"

I already reinstalled the addon, repaired it, reinstalled Arma 3, reinstalled the server, updated the server with all mods. The folder in ace with the bkey file is alright and updated.

  • Arma 3 Vanilla Game server (I tried 3 different host services, there is the same problem. The problem has been occurring since friday. Before that everything worked at any time.

It's not. Delete E:\SteamSpiele\steamapps\common\Arma 3\!Workshop\@ace on client as well as C:\cygwin\home\zap533815\g250156\arma3\@ace and C:\cygwin\home\zap533815\g250156\arma3\Keys\ on server, and download and install everything over again.

Then consider stop using Steam, as Valve is a garbage company, and also in future, ask for help for setting up your server on the A3 discord instead.

First, thank you very much for your help! I麓ve done what your said. And I found out that now the same problem is occurring with CBAA3 too. Nothing works, and I don麓t know what to do anymore.
This is the wrong forum, I try to come to the A3 Discord server

Thanks for your help! And stay safe and healthy.

I麓m sorry, here is the RPT. Hope thats the right one.

You're probably in the right directory, but that file ends way too early. Even just getting to the main menu without any mods is ~60 KB and ~700 lines, before closing the game.

This one is an RPT file from the server. I can麓t find another one in my data, I麓ve got a screenshot of the files. That one is the only one with the current date.
I can start Arma 3 with these two mods without problems, ace does work fine in the editor.

You're probably running the game with the -noLogs parameter.

This is obviously not a bug in ACE. Why is this on the ACE issue tracker?

That was the problem, thanks! I changed the parameter and connected again on the server. Now I have an bigger file.

I thought it麓s a problem with ace because every other mod works fine.
