Group Manager Help (WHY ME!!???!)

General Information:
I am on a 2011 iMac running Mac OS X Snow Leopard 10.6.7.
I have java version 1.6.0_24.
I am not running any wrappers, and have Craftbukkit version git-Bukkit-0.0.0-823-gb9d0b04-b860jnks (sorry if that's wrong..)


I am running Essentials, WorldEdit, and GroupManager (with FakePermissions) on my relatively new Mac-hosted Bukkit server. I am almost positive that my syntax for groups and users is correct, but I can't get the server to recognize GroupManager at all. I'll paste in my groups and users (totally unfinished at the moment, but ready to configure).

Groups:

Code:

groups:
    Default:
        default: true
        info:
            build: true
            prefix: '&c
            suffix: 'Guppy'
        inheritance: []
        permissions:
        - essentials.help
        - essentials.helpop
        - essentials.list
        - essentials.motd
        - essentials.rules
        - essentials.spawn
        - essentials.kit.redwool
    SemiAdmin:
        default: false
        info:
            build: true
            prefix: ''
            suffix: ''
        inheritance: []
        permissions:
        - -groupmanager.mantogglesave
        - essentials
        - essentials.clearinventory
        - essentials.cooldown.bypass
        - essentials.deljail
        - essentials.give
        - essentials.god
        - essentials.heal
        - essentials.heal.others
        - essentials.invsee
        - essentials.item
        - essentials.jails
        - essentials.kickall
        - essentials.kit.*
        - essentials.mute
        - essentials.sell
        - essentials.setjail
        - essentials.signs.protection.override
        - essentials.spawnmob
        - essentials.teleport.cooldown.bypass
        - essentials.teleport.timer.bypass
        - essentials.togglejail
        - groupmanager.*
        - essentials.burn
    Builder:
        default: false
        info:
            build: true
            prefix: ''
            suffix: ''
        permissions:
        -
    Moderator:
        default: false
        info:
            build: true
            prefix: ''
            suffix: ''
        permissions:
        -

Users:

Code:

users:
    stealth_nachos:
        group: Default
        info:
            prefix: ''
            suffix: ''
        permissions: []

(sad, I know.)

Anyway, with all my work on this, I am rewarded with the following error message whenever I start or reload the console!

I've looked for help EVERYWHERE, and I would GREATLY appreciate it if we could sort this out... It's driving me insane only having Op and non-Op with everyone being able to ban each other.

 

I suggest using Permissions 3.0
It now has in-game commands.

 

It appears the config.yml file isn't loading correctly! Try updating groupmanager and if that doesn't fix it then try deleting the config.yml file, as it may have been corrupted!

 

Try using Permissions 2.7, it's better than GroupManager and in my opinion better than the newer versions of Permissions (3.0).

 

I suggest Permissions 3x They have commands Like

/pr (player) parents add (Rank)
/pr (playe) parents remove (Rank)

 

*Cough*
PermissionsPlus
*Cough*

 

Wait, PermissionPlus does those Commands or what? I know i have permssions plus but i didnt know what to do with them

 

...

 

What is the .... for? ANSWER ME XD

 

Why would you get a plugin and not know what it does??

 

I got it when Permissions 2.7 came out and then i didnt understand it and i forgot about it.. Also Is that the commands From Permssions or Permssionsplus?

 

The new permissions comes with it, but I don't like the set up. PermissionsPlus is much better and 2.7 is awesome.

 

Lol We need to stop spaming this Fourm XD lets go to Private chat and talk about this XD

 

I do this to threads. They don't get mad =]

 

Oh lols. Well it might help them..... I wish i had more people coming on my server at this time XDD

 

Well as far as I know, v1.0(Alpha-5) is the newest version of groupmanager. Do you have a link to the latest build (if that isn't it)?

 

OHH I SEE THATS A WAY OUTDATED BUILD. Yeah the new build is part of essentials but it runs as a standalone. Download essentialsgroupmanager and essentialsgroupbridge Here- just download the .zip and put the two files in your plugins folder!

 

Make sure to paste you .yml file into the parser before using it to make sure there are no errors...
