Problem with KAC and my server not restarting

When I installed KAC everything seems to be wroking well and its even banned a few people already. But the biggest issue I have is I cannot "rcon quit" my server. I can use the rcon quit command but Kac is not allowing it to come back up. It doesnt allow my srcd.exe to close and re-open. Because i took the KAC smx out of the plugins folder and used the rcon quit command and the server came back up. How do I change this?

This probably is a bug with SourceMod hooking quit. The only thing KAC does with quit is attempt to prevent people from using it in the entity commands (i.e., ent_fire, etc). I would suspect it has something to do with AddCommandListener().
File a bug report with AlliedModders.

I know this is a bump to quite an old topic, but I just wanted to clear this up.
SteamTools doesn't have a single hook in the engine or server that could affect this, it only hooks the Steam API init function which is only called once after load (then it unhooks).

Steamtools still loads into memory. Any maybe its something that isn't closing out properly when the "quit" command is received.
KAC doesn't hook the "quit" command. Even if it did SourceMod architecture is suppose to prevent plugins from causing the server to crash.

I think one of the other 1000+ servers using SteamTools would have reported the issue.
I just hate it when someone blames an issue on something without at least a cursory check (case in point, it was originally blamed on KAC, now SteamTools, what's next?).

Meh, who knows.

Not trying to start a fight.

Is this issue wide spread ? or reproducible ?
or is it something specific to this users server install ?
I wonder if one of Maav's server plugins is the issue.
I personally am not familiar with the Gametech Warmod plugin.
Could you provide a full list of the MetaMod & SourceMod plugins & extensions that are installed on your server ?
I'm looking to see what you have installed when the server is not crashing before you added something.
Please use the commands
meta list
sm exts list
sm plugins list
