Bukkit

PermissionsBukkit messes up stuff on my server. It works fine if we paste in our config. But until we give someone a rank, it stops working. Takes away certain commands from people. So will this bug be fixed soon?

im having problems adding users to groups... im op, and i have yml setup properly, it seems the /permissions player addgroup PLAYER GROUP command... it keeps spitting out errors essentially not allowing perms to work.

@jithin

This is a KNOWN issue. Solution:

take backup of the conifg.yml !!!!!

see my other posts about how to write the config.yml properly. the config.yml is NOT 100% yaml.

if you write the config.yml correctly, it will not break when using the /perms command

um i am having trouble with this plugin, it keeps erasing my entire permissons and laving in my config with nothing and i have to sit in the chair and add all the permission thru the game not the config (when i use the config to add it erases) mind fixing this in the next update and try getting a new text document for just the permissions and group
and i really like using this plugin its less complicated

@fjutte

THANK YOU. I appreciate your help.. a lot. Now I know how to do it thanks so much. <3

@wildfreak26

At first, it looked ok, then I noticed this:

groups:
  default:
    essentials.eco: true

you forgot the "permissions:" line :)

groups:
  default:
    permissions:
      essentials.eco: true

) I know, it's a pain in the * to write config files

And, i noticed something else. You have both "essentials.help: true" and "commandbook.help: true" ; do you have both those plugins? They use the same command, so that's your problem I guess. Commandbook is good, but do you need it more than Essentials? Either way, uninstall one of them, and the problem with "/help" should be fixed.

@fjutte

I have done everything you have said, it is still not working. Here is what it looks like now: http://i.imgur.com/9xFtY.png

Perhaps you could maybe join my server, and assist me? Thank you again.

tip for server owners/admins

always make a backup of the config.yml, because if you write anything wrong the config file will be wiped.

on our server we make daily backup of the entire plugins directory, just to be sure nothing is fed up

@wildfreak26

your "moderator" group is indented wrong, it looks to be part of the "admin" group

the "group" node in the "users" group, is also indented wrong. AND the "inheritance" is also wrong... :)

it should be like this:

users:
  wildfreak26:
    permissions:
    groups:
    - default
  _Leonardis_1:
    permissions:
    groups:
    - moderator
groups:
  default:
    permissions:
    .
    .
    .
  admin:
    permissions:
      permissions.*: true
    inheritance:
    - default
  moderator:
    permissions:
      permissions.build: true
    inheritance:
    - default

I never understood essentials protect, so I use WorldGuard (get the latest dev build)

@fjutte

I have formatted my config.yml like you had suggested, but still haven't had any luck. When I deop myself, and try a simple command like "/help" it won't allow me too. In my config the node is essentials.help: true Yet in game when I am op, I run the command /perms info essentials.help, and it says it is not found? Here is a picture of my config.yml-

I am running on a mac if that changes anything. P.S. I am having problems where I can't see minecarts but others can. It acts like nothing is there (collision movements etc.) Sometimes when I place one it says: "essentials protect- this is protected by <myname>. If anyone can help me with this that would be greatly appreciative. Thanks

@mokapang

remove your "*: true" from the admin-block or the entire admin-block

instead of giving admins all commands with the "*" node, just make them op with /op <player>

why? because the "*" node is NOT supported by this plugin. Read the FAQ!

Does not work with latest bukkitcraft dev build.

it is VERY important that you write the config right. First, the config.yml is NOT fully yaml.

In this example of "config.yml" you can see that the indent is only 2 spaces, not 4.

groups:
  default:
    permissions:
      permissions.build: true
messages:
  build: '&cYou do not have permission to build here.'

It is also VERY important that the "true" or "false" values are prefixed by a space after the colon ":", like this:

      permissions.build: true

and NOT like this:

      permissions.build:true

need help.. its not working. no problems appear on serverlogs. but it doesnt work in game.

using craftbukkit 1.2.5 R1.0, Permissionsbukkit 1.6

@KoBrA1135

YES I NEED HELP. Can you post an example of your config? thx. I could post mine so you could see what I did wrong, if you want to help me that much :)

@snowy007 I have it all correct, but still not working. I think it worked for a little bit before, but now it doesn't.
