source code = http://dl.dropbox.com/u/8962011/bukkit plugin java files/Snowball.zip7
also the commands dont seem to work. thanks for the help

 

Error 404.

But I think you got plugin.yml wrong, please post it here.

 

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/8962011/plugin.yml thanks for the help

 

Those are just guesses because I donot know the real syntax rules, but I use "name: XXX" not "name : XXX". I also do not like the space in the plugin name, but again maybe that has nothing to do with anything.
I also write commands like this --

Code:

commands:
  name:
    ...

notice the indentation.
But this just as well may help nothing

 

when i do it like that it gives mean error about mapping valaues are not allowed

 

what? never seen that... post the new version.

 

the error:

and the new plugin.yml =

Code:

name: Snowball fight
main: plugin.x1337x.Snowball.Snowball
version: 0.1
author: (1337)
description: Snowball fight!!!!
 commands :
  snowball :
   description: shows all the Snowball commands
    usage: /<command>
 

 

Code:

    usage: /<command>

I think it complains about the <>s.

 

You're indents are off. Try this:

Code:

name: Snowball fight
main: plugin.x1337x.Snowball.Snowball
version: 0.1
author: (1337)
description: Snowball fight!!!!

commands :
  snowball :
    description: shows all the Snowball commands
    usage: /<command>

 

that fixes the mapping error but still get the error in the op

 

you can not have a space between commands and : and snowball and :

 

fixed that but still get the same error as the op

where is your plugin.yml within your compiled jar?

 

not in any folders just in the jar
