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 May 3, 2012Hi, great plugin
I'm running a hardcore server and was wondering if there is any way to configure Logblock to log all player deaths from any source.
Thanks!

My server has zero issues with logblock, because it is up to date :)
Sometimes, when plugin developers aren't able to maintain a plugin, the community makes fixes needed for the plugin to continue. There are a lot of servers out there that run logblock, not only because it is a very robust plugin, but it does the job well. The latest dev release only has a minor bug or two, so enjoy it :)
LogBlock 1.52 and LogBlockQuestioner 0.3 for CB 1.2.5, compiled for java 1.7:

Posted May 1, 2012Release much?
The dev version is about 4 - 5 months newer than the release version (mar 27th 2012) Are you planning on setting up a new release? My server has been screaming at me asking if the logblock is up to date...
If anyone is having issues with the mod try updating to the latest dev release.
CB1337 was for like MC version 1.0 or 1.1 or something. Update already...please...

yes. You are running an outdated version. Scroll down the page to my previous posts with links to the updated versions if you can't get them from the "Dev builds" link in the plugin description.

It is also telling me that there is a newer version of LogBlock (version 1.52) could this also be the problem?

Would this be causing my lb tool to not work as well?

"EDIT: Never mind, I fixed it myself. I had to edit the structure of the X and Z and change values to a higher number (from 6 to 9), and change Type to "MEDIUMINT", and problem was solved."
This is a fix a previous user used to solve the same problem. It is done by editing the database itself.

Posted Apr 30, 2012Hey, how do I limit my map radius to 32K? I'm not sure how to do this, since it's not in the config. I'm getting this error Data truncation: Out of range value for column x at row 1 and I had to limit my map to 32K considering to the FAQ.

When it says "error, check logs" it's referring to the server.log file. Use pastebin.com to link the error it's actually having.

Posted Apr 29, 2012Hey, I am having some problems. When I go to click with the tool (wood pick) nothing shows up. Also, when I try to rollback a player it just says: Error, check logs.
I have connected the database correctly.
Thanks,
Matt
