What is AutoMessage?
AutoMessage is an easy to use chat scheduler plugin. It is a plugin perfect for server admins who would like to announce broadcasts at configurable intervals. The plugin features a rich in-game config editor as well as the ability to edit the config from the disk. The plugin is designed to be very lightweight and cause no impact on server resources! The plugin is updated within days of new releases to ensure complete up-to-date server compatibility! Check out the plugin review here!
Features:
- Fully configurable configuration!
- Rich in-game config editor!
- Quick and painless reloading!
- Option to randomize broadcasts!
- Color code support!!
- Run commands in your messages!
Installation:
Just drag and drop into your plugins folder then restart or reload your server! Simple!
Usage and Information:
This plugin utilises Hidendra's plugin metrics system, which means that the following information is collected and sent to mcstats.org:
- A unique identifier
- The server's version of Java
- Whether the server is in offline or online mode
- The plugin's version
- The server's version
- The OS version/name and architecture
- The core count for the CPU
- The number of players online
- The Metrics version Opting out of this service can be done by editing plugins/Plugin Metrics/config.yml and changing opt-out to true.
This plugin features an update command which will check if you are running the latest build and download the update to the plugin folder if it not currently installed. You are required to trigger the command manually and you must restart or reload the server for changes to take effect.
Thanks to my donators!

Posted Jun 7, 2012With minor differences this config works. http://pastie.org/4044821
I added the messages each with the command instead of editing it by hand. It seemed to of made a difference.

Success so far, no errors on startup, now to make sure the messages are coming through....messages still aren't working. I don't get any errors but the only mesages that are working are:
First message in the loaded messages! Second message in the loaded messages! Third message in the loaded messages!
and they are still going off at the default time of 45 seconds. Though that are random.
EDIT: It seems after I changed my config the config was regenerated. I will try one more time.
EDIT:
This works: http://pastie.org/4044773 This doesn't work: http://pastie.org/4044776
Why doesn't the second config work? Whenever I use that as the config the whole thing gets regenerated on server startup.

I am currently attempting to fix however I did some research on these common errors and have found this to be windows related due to the way that they handle memory mapped files. I am trying to program a fix ASAP. Can you tell me what version of java you are using? Do java -version in command line.

I am using Windows, but as ViscousSummer88 said he is getting it on Linux as well. Considering that a vast majority of OS's are Windows over Linux and Macintosh you shouldn't blame this on Windows, but find out how to fix it. So please fix it.

Is the server running on a windows computer? Im going to try to find the cause of these issues however I think its a windows issue. Also try using the in-game commands and see if those work.

Posted Jun 6, 2012To all having problems... Are you using windows for your server? I have been doing some research on the errors that are occurring and it seems to be windows related.
@Lolseeker
I will be adding this in a later update.

Posted Jun 6, 2012I am getting this error on server startup and shutdown.
http://pastie.org/4039190
Here is my config
http://pastie.org/4039194
Also as you see I have custom messages made but they are not being played, the default messages of "First message in loaded messages!" and so on are the only ones playing. The interval is still stuck at 45 seconds. Whenever I make a change to the config nothing happens. The only thing that works is "enabled: true/false".
I deleted the folder and automessage several times and started with a brand new download etc. What is the problem, and how do I fix it(or please fix it ASAP)?

Posted Jun 6, 2012Great plugin, any chance to see a permission to ignore messages? So only the players without the certain permission will see the messages
