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

I was not assisted. Whoever I talked to said he/she would get back to me, but I was never gotten back to. Hence why I posted here.

First part of the FAQ which is linked in the More Information section :(
@Rahmat_Burhanudin
Are you sure you have the permission?
@SuperPyroManiac
My last use of BlockPhysicsEvent showed that it only was called when a block update was called to sand or gravel. I'm unsure if this is the case now.
@ProjectInfinity
I believe you were assisted on IRC. If this is not the case let me know.

This has been the case for like ever... all you have to do is give a negative permission for whatever permission you don't want the user to have.

Posted Aug 3, 2012Is the log clearing feature ran in server thread or in it's own thread? I am getting insane lag after log clearing, especially after chest logs being cleared.
I have been trying to get hold of you guys on IRC a few times now without much luck.

Can setting useBukkitScheduler to false help against this?

Posted Aug 2, 2012Are there installation instructions anywhere? Clicking the above link (to https://github.com/LogBlock/LogBlock/wiki/Installation) just takes me to a page that says I'm not allowed to edit the wiki. And I don't see "Installation" listed on the pages tab in the wiki.

Tickets are actually at https://github.com/LogBlock/LogBlock/issues WorldEdit is also not logged currently, so I don't know why your queue is getting large but please view the Commands section on the wiki.
@Ovelite
Please read the Configuration section on the wiki.
@TigerXtrm
1) This is configurable. 2) Install the LogBlock Questioner for these features to work, or disable the questioning in the configuration. (Configuration available on the wiki)

@rodier
This is a MySQL logging plugin, if you do a simple Google search I'm sure you'll find some free MySQL hosting. (Or your current server host may offer it free of charge)
@Jackrushton
I'm not completely sure what you mean by this. Would you care to elaborate, please?
