Okay...I assume you made your group db correctly...

- Are you using local or global groups for your group management. As far as I know, the only way to add somebody to a global group is through the web interface.

- If you are using local groups, you will also need to make a user db. First, create an empty file, and name it "user.db" or "userdb" (Whatever you like, just make sure it's intuitive). Also, make sure it's writable by bzfs (usually not needed). Then, add this to your config.

Code: Select all

# You'll need to supply the path if they are in another directory
-groupdb "group.db"
-userdb "user.db"
And hopefully, the /setgroup command will work.
