Solved 1.8.9 onEnable error with commands

Hello,

I'm currently in the middle of developing a plugin, I'm using spiggot 1.8.9 (using bukkit imports) but every time the code runs the follow error appears:

Code:

[11:08:33 INFO]: [server] Loading server v1
[11:08:33 INFO]: [server] Enabling server v1
[11:08:33 ERROR]: Error occurred while enabling server v1 (Is it up to date?)
java.lang.NullPointerException

I have viewed the thread of readint trace error stacks, but its not seeming to help and it's like 7 years old now, and one of the links dont work. The following code is in my main:

Code:

public class main extends JavaPlugin {

   private Commands commands = new Commands();
   
   public String prefix = ChatColor.RED+"MCSERVERPLUGIN"+ChatColor.BOLD+ChatColor.GREEN+">>"+ChatColor.RESET;
   
   @Override
   public void onEnable(){
     getCommand(commands.ban).setExecutor(commands); //Line 14, the one having problems
     getCommand(commands.van).setExecutor(commands);
     getConfig().options().copyDefaults(true);
     saveConfig();
   }

   @Override
   public void onDisable() {

   }
}

Theres more imports and stuff, but left it out.
Help appreciated, thanks
