Having problems adding random missions with FLE to my bases

Hell everyone i am a newbie at system editing and i have a simple question....i am able to get news and EVERYTHING else to work on my bases. For some reason i am not able to get the job board to work it either says "too many players accessing the board"...or..."you need to be on friendlier terms with the factions on this base"...even though i am at a perfect level with teh factions.....so if anyone could help me get over this hurdle i would be very grate ful thanks a lot

well if u have it in your own made up system you gotta make some missions yourself but if you put bases in premade systems the missions will already be there

Yay my first post, i'm new to this but will try my best. Never tried FLE i just edited ini files to make them work for me. FL will randomly make missions for any new base, system or faction if the right conditions are met. Here's a list of the problems i encountered when i tried.

System- (ex. li01.ini) -
-Must contain some vignette entries, these set where you fly to on a mission
-Must contain a hostile faction for you to fight, easiest way is to add an area scout encounter

Base- (mBases.ini)
-needs faction on the base to be set to give out missions
-need to set how many random missions the base will offer

faction -
-the two factions need to be at war, this is set in the save game files for a SP game
-the faction you want to do missions against needs ships and loadouts for the lvl of mission your trying to create
