Asset Server problems

Unity Engine
1

Hi,

I recently setup the asset server, but did so back when 2.5 was the king of the hill.

Now we are getting ready to start using it, but are experiencing problems - specifically regarding comitting files. When we are trying to commit files, we get the following error: “You don’t have commit permissions for this project”

We get this error regardless of who we are logged in as; admin and ‘normal’ users fail the same.

Fun fact: It seems to be working on one of our Windows’ machines, but on Mac OSX it doesn’t work at all.

The Windows users are running 2.5, while the Mac users are using 2.6.

Only the Mac users are experiencing the commit problems.

Go to Administration window.
Login. Click on the project in question. See which users have rights to access that project.

If you have check mark next to your name try unchecking and checking it again.

Please let us know how it works out.

Awesome! That fixed things.
Thanks rytis. :slight_smile:

Second question: With 2.6, are there any updates for the Asset Server I have to apply to the server itself?

Great :slight_smile:

Just so we know. Was checkbox unchecked or did you have to uncheck and recheck?

Asset Servers server v2.0 is to be released in a week or two. For now there are no changes to do.

Btw I strongly advise you to use 2.6 for asset server client… :slight_smile:

Alright - sounds nice. Thanks again rytis :slight_smile:

Now that we got it up and running there are some things that are looking a bit odd.
#1: Tags are not transferred when a user commits. Why is this? Are we doing something wrong here?

#2: It seems like it doesn’t transfer files the are located in the higher levels of hierarchy - specifically a file /UnityProject/*
However, all the files within the /Unity/Assets transfered just fine. Any reason for this? The file was called “dump.db”, if that has anything to do with it. It was transferred, but had a size of 0 kb.

The checkboxes was checked at first.
I then unchecked, and rechecked. That fixed things for us Mac users.

Those “manager” files that store settings like tags (files with .asset extension) do not get saved to disk as you modify them. Try hitting “Refresh” in asset server.
Tags should definitely be committed.

Unity imports files in Assets and some settings files in Library. All files that unity does not know about do not get into asset server.

Thanks, that helped!
