LogBlock
Works 100% with 1.7 / 1.8
The best block logging and rollback solution for the savvy server administrator.
LogBlock is the best block logging plugin for Bukkit server. Not only is it awesomely powerful, it’s blazing fast! Everything is logged into a MySQL database, allowing developers to hook in and produce things such as player stats and even administrative panels. Every loggable action can be logged with LogBlock: WorldEdit, leave decay, fire, sign changes, explosions, chest changes, player and animal deaths, chat, commands and more!
Development builds of this project can be acquired at the provided continuous integration server. These builds have not been approved by the BukkitDev staff. Use them at your own risk.
LogBlock will very rarely break between Minecraft / Bukkit updates, however if you find it does, please be sure to try a development build from above, as we generally test new releases there until deemed stable.
What is LogBlock?
LogBlock is a tool which allows you to keep track of almost everything on your server, while also giving you the ability to rollback (revert) or redo changes made by users and natural occurrences such as liquid flow or leaf decay. Additionally, LogBlock is able to log and rollback chest contents, sign text and more! LogBlock was originally created by bootswithdefer for HMod, ported to Bukkit by DiddiZ and is now actively maintained by md_5, ammar2 and the community of developers on Bukkit. We accept pull requests on GitHub frequently which means that community developers can add features they wish to see quicker than LogBlock developers are able to from tickets. All database actions are run not only in their own threads, but are queued into a consumer to minimize lag on the main thread. This is great for larger servers! All optional features (not dependencies below) are enabled and disabled from within the config file allowing complete control over what is logged thus ensuring database size is kept to a minimum.
Notices
Most virtual chest plugins are not compatible with LogBlock. Because they do not set the player who is opening the “chest”, LogBlock can’t do what it’s meant to be able to do, thus, making errors in your console. Please report these issues to the fake-chest plugin developer, NOT LogBlock developers.
Issues are read more frequently on the GitHub Issues page as compared to the comments below. When updating to LB1.57, if you already have a large database and have changed your columns to MEDIUMINT, INT or LARGEINT, you do not need the updater to fix this for you automatically. To stop this behaviour, simply change “version” in the configuration to ‘1.57’.
If you are experiencing an error such as this please read the FAQ for answers.
If you're receiving errors regarding players from the consumer such as "[Consumer] Failed to add player <playername>" then change all `playerid` columns to MEDIUMINT or INT in each table that contains them. This may take a long time if you have a lot of rows.
Optional Dependencies
- WorldEdit (Recommended)
- Permissions plugin
- LogBlock Questioner

Posted Dec 16, 2012Is it normal for my LogBlock queue to be constantly overloaded when starting a new world?
I'm not talking 10 or 20 blocks, it's overloaded by 8000 at some points.

Posted Dec 16, 2012I'm using 1.54 on a tekkit server and for the life of me I cannot seem to prevent the fakeplayers (such as Buildcraft) from being logged. I did add the names to the config.yml and few alternatives in a desperate attempt to figure out what work work.
hiddenPlayers: - BuildCraft - buildcraft - Buildcraft - IndustrialCraft - RedPower - '[BuildCraft]' - '[Buildcraft]' - '[buildcraft]'
Any advice would be appreciated. On a side note. Will tekkit work with later versions of logblock?

Unfortunately no, the schema doesn't quite support metadata from nbt :( However, the newer schema for logblock-2 does, waiting for it would be your best bet

Posted Dec 16, 2012Is it possible to support skulls created by plugins such as Decapitation or Player Heads? They roll back as a generic skull I'm afraid.

I updated it with dev build #171. Now it works great again. But when I am going to update craftbukkit, I think the same problems will appear.

Posted Dec 9, 2012It doesn't log animalkills for me. I've changed this in the config: " logKillsLevel: ANIMALS" but every time I try "/lb area 20 animalkill time 5m" it doesn't show anything. No matter what mob I kill, no matter with what item I'm killing it. It never shows. Is that a known bug? LB version 1.60 CB version #2488 (R0.2 Beta).

Posted Dec 8, 2012For some reason if you use Pick Block, then place a block, it removes the block you placed, and removes the block that you picked from your inventory

Please we really need a way to have progress on rollback. I had to rollback 680 000 and I can't even know if it is done. It looks like but it could still be rollbacking underground, I have no idea.
Thanks! PS: CoreProtect does it so you can do it too!
