You sould set a wrong scriptpath to let the server to try to restart using process builder workarond. If this won't work than it means that hoster is somehow blocking executing native commands.

Hi, I am here, again :/. I tried version 4.7 but it still doesn't work on my server. I use mcpc+ on hosted server on Linux OS. I have my start.sh in the server folder. Console shows, that it found the startup script and it's restarting. But it isn't (really, I know, that I can't see it on console). Can you help me, please?

@Connor_13_ What's your script is?
And are you sure that you set the path right? (Otherwise it will try to restart but no console will appear even if restart was succesful)

I cant get the restart to work right... I am using spigot / bukkit and the integrated /restart command works but the /asw restart doesnt work. It just stops the server. I have just stop disabled. Any ideas?

I'm happy to report that I don't think the problem was with ASW even though the disconnect happened RIGHT before an auto save. Apparently my server was started via 32bit java instead of 64bit so I wasn't able to allocate as much RAM as I wanted to. I think the problem MIGHT have been that I was running low on memory so the server is like "ohey I need some room here, get off".

So! I backed up the world and deleted all other server files and started my server up again using BukkitGUI (which is amazing btw) and everything seems to be working.

Thanks so much for your quick response in any case, and I am very thankful for this plugin.

Keeping login times for players will result in need to purge this files. That's is very idea.

Also i can't find what is PlotMe region helpers.

I think i will relese v 4.7 after i will finish testing autorestart and mcpc+

and after that i will try to find out what is going wrong with those checks (corrupted file maybe)

You are right. Only 2users reported this issue. So it might be an issue with bukkit or something. I think the most stable way is to manually keep lastlogin times of users. I am using OnTime witch keeps track of everything. lastlogin, totalplaytime etc. Maybe AutoSave can read data from OnTime and double check it that way?

I'm still resisting on checking if PlotMe members of a plot are active.

Other than that seems okay. You could release it I guess. (btw, I don't know about threadsafe)

@Zraiiah Don't have an idea.

What core are you using?
Also try with ASW plugin only and if this continues try without map(that souldn't really matter,but still).

Everyone gets kicked off my server right before an AutoSave. The only plugins I have are ASW, Essentials, McMMO and WorldEdit. I don't know if this matters, but I also created my own overworld using World Painter.

Sometimes instead of "endOfStream" it gives this too:

If there's somewhere else I should be posting this, let me know please. :)

@KBTfilms Yes it works. (Exept some problems with mcpc+ and autorestart)

Why online mod status should matter to a plugin?

Does this work on cracked, non-hosted servers?

The path that i made worked in the old config When it where like this:

help: write absolute paths to this file

extfolders:

- /media/FTB_Backups/FTB_Public_Backups

and switched to use extpaths in the config? do you mean i should rename extfolders to extpaths instead im kinda lost, i can't find anything named extpaths in the config only extfolder.

@saxons12 First every player assumed active.
Then check if the user even exist (if not -> assume inactive), then check last login(if logined more the awaytime ago -> assume inactive), then online status(online -> assume active (some occasions when player just joined server, he will not exist for bukkit, but will be online)).

For some reason sometimes bukkit returns wrong results(on .hasPlayedBefore() mostly, and sometimes .getlastPlayed()), and player assumed inactive.
I think it has something to with server crashes when player files are not saved correctly.

(Sometimes i have this problem with WG purge, 2-5 regions from 1000 are deleted wrongly, that why i always do a backup before purge, so i can restore some regions using WEsnapshot)

Or maybe those checks are not threadsafe, but not threadsafe reading WTF?

Edit: I just realized that some of my current players, which log in every day and some even online during the PlotMe purge have reported that their Plots have been deleted. How could this happen? Because they were online? How does AutoSave check if a player is inactive?

So I tested this and it worked perfectly. I had 21k plots it deleted around 7k, which opened up spaces for new players. I saw that you added statistics to the console, thanks for that.

One suggestion for PlotMe: Add an option so that AutoSaveWorld also checks if the Helpers of a plot are also inactive before deleting the plot. Some of my users are angry because of this. But I want do a rollback because it's too messy and these were the users who used multiple accounts to have more plots.

Thanks you very much in general!

(I could send you a log if it's necessary, I also had Debug on while doing this.)

Are you sure that you switched to use extpaths in the config?
