    When rumours were abound of the coming of Minecraft 1.5, we were quite frantic since we were just beginning work on a new, better update handling process and were afraid the update would hit before we were ready to handle it. Luckily, to our delight, Mojang experienced a feature creep and couldn't meet the original estimated time of release, resulting in the update being delayed until the week after. While some of you were disappointed with the delay, we were happy and thankful as it gave us the weekend to push to complete the transition to our new update process.

    Unfortunately, when the Minecraft update was finally released, we were still finalising the move over to our new update process and this caused some delay. Quite a few of you were unhappy about this and we understand your frustration but we, honestly, feel the delay was for the better. With this new update process, barring local issues we have with our development environments, there should be less confusion and hard to trace bugs with future Minecraft updates. While we could have released a Recommended Build shortly after we had the update done (since we had Bukkit compatible and working with Minecraft 1.5_02 already), I made the decision for us to work out some of the issues that we were sure people would experience due to changes in Minecraft: like the addition of strict limits on certain things like chat or sign text, etc.

    Anyway, let's cut to the chase:
    We're happy to finally make available a Recommended Build for Minecraft 1.5_02 that you can grab and put on your servers right now, using the link below.

    Download CraftBukkit for Minecraft 1.5_02

    If you're just getting started, please read and follow this guide:
    BukkitWiki - Setting up a server

    Common Problems/Questions:
    I downloaded build 733 but got some other build!
    You're probably reading the version string incorrectly.

    Here's an example version string:
    git-Bukkit-0.0.0-700-gf3ae4c3-b733jnks (MC: 1.5_02)

    This version string is for build 733, as you can tell by the "b733jnks" at the end.

    Whenever I use a plugin that changes blocks, I can't see the changes until I reconnect!
    We had an issue with blocks not updating properly but this has since been fixed from build #707. This bug affected plugins that changed blocks in game, like WorldEdit. Update to the Recommended Build b733 to fix this.

    Help! My console keeps getting spammed with this error whenever someone gets kicked or disconnects and it lags the server!
    This is a bug we've fixed from build #701 onwards.

    Update to the Recommended Build b733 to fix this.

    I can't build or destroy anything! Help!?
    The common cause of this issue is a client mod called Single Player Commands, please try uninstalling all your client mods and seeing if this fixes the issue. If this is the case, then it isn't a Bukkit issue and you should contact the author of the mods you use.

    Every time I connect to the server and load a sign, the client crashes. What's wrong?
    Minecraft 1.5 has added limits for sign text. Plugin developers commonly used longer sign text to store extra data or add colours to signs. This is no longer possible, so we now cut off any line in a sign longer than 15 characters (as of build #712).

    Update to the Recommended Build b733 to fix this.

    I get kicked when flying and am told that flying hasn't been enabled on this server. How do I enable flying?
    Minecraft 1.5 added anti-flying checks. You can enable flying by setting allow-flight=true in server.properties.

    Whenever I try to send a long message in chat, it gets cut off at roughly two lines.
    A limit on chat has been added with Minecraft 1.5.

    Update to the Recommended Build b733 to fix this.

    Help! When I use the CLI arguments to set ports (or any setting), the server always starts up on 25565 or ignores the setting![/COLOR][/U]
    There was a bug that prevented the server from reading settings passed through CLI arguments. This has since been fixed from build #706 onwards.

    Update to the Recommended Build b733 to fix this.

    When lightning strikes a painting, the server crashes!
    There was a bug that caused the server to throw an error or freeze when a painting was struck by lightning, this has since been fixed from build 734 onwards. While this isn't a Recommended Build, it contains only this change and shouldn't break anything, so feel free to upgrade to this build to fix this issue.

    People are using a duping exploit involving workbenches!
    We've fixed this duping issue from build b735 onwards.

    While this isn't a Recommended Build, it contains only this change and shouldn't break anything, so feel free to upgrade to this build to fix this issue.

    Whenever I do something in game, like place a block, I get disconnected with an End of Stream error!
    This can be caused by an outdated or broken texture pack. Please try testing with a completely unmodified Minecraft client and see if it works then. If it does, you'll need to find a new texture pack or mod, get the author to fix it or run Minecraft without them.

    I can't ban anyone!
    This issue is usually caused by an outdated plugin, like Essentials. You should be keeping your plugins up to date - especially when an update hits - as they could contain fixes that make all the difference in the operation of your server.

    As Essentials isn't properly communicating updates with the community at the moment (and their plugin appears to be the leading cause of this issue), many of you are still running a version that prevents banning from working. Please update to 2.2.x (or whatever the latest is) to fix this issue.

    If this hasn't fixed this issue, make sure you've updated all your other plugins too.

    I can't spawn any mobs!

    As Essentials isn't properly communicating updates with the community at the moment (and their plugin appears to be the leading cause of this issue), many of you are still running a version that prevents mobs from naturally spawning. Please update to 2.2.x (or whatever the latest is) to fix this issue.

    If this hasn't fixed this issue, make sure you've updated all your other plugins too.

    The easiest fix for most problems is to update to the Recommended Build b733.

    Thanks for your patience, support and the many kind words you've all sent our way!

    could you give us a link if you have it? kind of pointless to say "go download this important fix (insert vague description here)" and not give a link.

    Luke, just to be sure, you are not in a spawn-protection-zone?
    sometimes i get similar behaviour if i cross a 1k-mark in the coordinates (999-1000-1001).

    but back to topic:
    thanks for another great piece of work!:)

    Also, do you have "Single Player Commands" installed. This currently causes problems. Just uninstall it and it should fix it.

    Just wanted to say thanks to the Bukkit Team for putting up with the constant barrage of "is it done yet" and continuing the development of this great server/plugin system. Minecraft wouldn't be the same without it :)

    Do you have any client mods installed? Also, could you paste your version string? (Use the /version command or type version at the console.)

    i experience huge lags (up to a minute!) at certain locations on my map.
    when the player sends a chat-msg it arrives very fast at the server but takes very long until the client can see his own message. so the lag is one-way.
    additionally when there are a lot of mobs the server's cpu usage goes up to 100% (intel i7, 8 cores).
    plugins: none, version: 733

    And hey, I don't believe I did say this before... but Thanks.
    I really do appreciate all of you, and the rest of the Bukkit Team's, hard work.
    Especially how you pay attention to every single problem the community has, and then you fix it right away (at least for really important bugs :)).

    Keep up the great work! :D

    this seems to be the best build of CB i have seen for a while, plugins issues have been tiny and stability & performance is fantastic! Truly awesome stuff :)
     
  28. So... the DropBonus and HigherExplosives mods have a different architecture now. (Theyre not a JAR file to put into the plugins folder) How do i go about making them work ?

    HigherExplosives

    New Recommended Build: #739

    This new build addresses some remaining issues that we didn't notice when we were testing the previous RB, like the server freezing when lightning strikes a painting.

    There are no breaks in this build so all plugins should work fine.
