It is doing this because the application that processes images on the server (UTServerAdmin.UTImageServer) also checks for a username & password. It is not compatible with SemiAdmin, and should be disabled. Change the following line in the server's .ini file:

Applications[1]=UTServerAdmin.UTImageServer

to

Applications[1]=UWeb.ImageServer

That's odd because XMaps doesn't have this problem. It'd be interesting to see what's been done differently.

ah no wonder, i ended up removing semi admin and installing advanced admin, then just for the hell of it installed semi admin again and it fixed it.

yep changing that fixed it, now can use it without advanced admin being installed.

If only that fix would work on our server lol . Any suggestions as to anything I might have missed ?

That's because XMaps doesn't store its images in the same place. In unrealtournament.ini you'll have this entry:

ApplicationPaths[0]="/images"

What that says to UT is "anything accessing the /images directory gets handled by Application[0]", which is UTImageServer. XMaps images are in the XMaps subdirectory, so get handled by XMaps.

ImageServer looks at the file type requested and sends the appropriate HTML images/jpg (or whatever) headers then the file.

The difference that UTImageServer adds is to check the username and password before allowing the request to be processed.

Thanks for clearing that up Purple ;) . I think I'm going to edit the html files so this problem doesn't occur again.

I'd suggest you take evolutions advice and replace UTImageServer with ImageServer. The reason for that is because otherwise you have to move all the stuff in /images somewhere else, and then change all the webadmin stuff that might refer to those images (OPBan, MVR, etc). Simpler just to whip 'UT' off :)

That's the way I've set up things at the moment but sometimes I get some rather odd behaviour. For example, I was logged into ServerAdmin (the standard web admin) and clicked on the console link and the login box popped up again.
