Event Timeline

This seems to be platform independet (PC, PS, XBOX)
It still happens on stable 1.16. I am using a Playstation server on nitrado and provided detailed reports at https://forum.nitrado.net/thread/19762-whitelisted-players-kicked-out-of-server-with-not-whitelisted-error-when-game-se/
It seems whitelist.txt is at time read when the file is "locked", thus it reads an empty file (or fails to read). DayZ server detects it, and repeats the loading of the whitelist.txt right after.
However, this is enough to kick out all players.

This is an example of the RPT log entrie:
