Inactive [GEN] Essentials v2.1 [?]

The new essentials thread is here:

Support can be found on IRC.

 

Thanks, Xenexer, for being so generous with fulfilling requests on this mod! I wanted to alert you to a situation I ran into the other day which leads me to make this request...

I tried to give myself an item using /i but I fat-fingered the id and typed an invalid number (one that does not exist in the database.) When I did this, my client ground to a halt and booted me out. When I tried to re-connect, I would get into the server and a few seconds later my client would freeze and I would get booted. There were a bunch of null pointer errors in the log...

I tried removing my player_name.dat file from the server. This let me login at the default spawn location with no inventory. Oddly enough, however, when I travelled back to the place where I fat-fingered the command, the client froze-up on me and booted me from the server!

Finally, I had to remove my player_name.dat file from the server AND delete all my client data (except textures and saved worlds.) I re-dl'd the Minecraft Launcher and ran it. I was then able to login and stay logged-in.

So, my request is for something along the lines of input validation. Is there any way to add a check that will prevent anyone who enters an invalid id from messing up their inventory and/or player information?

Thanks!

@Xenexer found it! The game only gives "There are no valid kits" and if i do /kit 1 it says "That kit does not exist or is improperly defined. Perhaps an item is missing a quantity in the configuration?"

 

@Silverlink Could you upload or pastebin your entire configuration so that I can validate it? Thanks!

 

Sure here it is!

+ mine does not do that wiht the

1. 
   disable-give: false on line down it not even there + there is no kit noteblock

--- merged: Jan 21, 2011 9:34 PM ---
now it dont give me it any more when i got the new 31 version so never mind

 

@fnullerbasse It was saying essentially that your config was so invalid that it couldn't even figure out what the error was

@Silverlink I figured out what I did wrong with the kits. I needed to quote the names because they started with numbers. http://www.earth2me.com/x/minecraft/bukkit/Silverlink.txt Me like you lot too

 

I so could set the permissions?

Moderators:
default: false
inheritance: Default,
permissions:
- 'Essentials.time'

or should I adjust it differently?

 

@Zenexer Works great! Thank u very much! Now going to figure Essentials + Permissions out!

 

now it say it again and the only thing i did was i went into the config and just pressed enter the false and that just like Silverlink and then it give me the thing again ...........

 

That looks good to me. I'm no expert on Permissions, though.

 

Zenexer could u look on my topic ??

 

The forum says I was tagged in this post and liiiiiiied to me.

 

@fnullerbasse Something in your config is wrong. Do you have tabs? You need spaces, not tabs. You could also try deleting your config file.

 

does this look right ? http://pastebin.com/W0VDdkd1

 

@fnullerbasse Yes, that config runs fine for me. I'll look at your error again momentarily.

ok i deleted the folder with the config in it and then run the server again and now it say and the config now look like this without me doing any thing to it

 

The users.yml file was corrupt.

 

oh yeah i show again ... ok i got a folder in plugins that is called : Essentials and in there is a config and a users both yml but i open them with notepad and the error only come when i put my name in the users ...... why ?

 

Seems like Permissions don't work. Even though I've given a player access to a command (i.e time) he cant access it (if he's not op).

 

Still great! Works like charm (I posted in wrong topic x-)))

 

Hey can i ask Silverlink what u have in your users ???? because every time i write something in it it give me an error is it because i need to have a , after ech player also the last one ????

 

the new restrictions doesn't seem to work .. I've deleted my name from Ops.txt and tried to use /give command and /time day or night command still works . commands such as /heal or tp is working .

 

Permissions support is still preliminary. I am working on full support. However, I have not had any issues with it on my test server. I will check again. You might be having trouble configuring Permissions.

@fnullerbasse users.yml is NOT a configuration file. Do NOT modify it. That will fix your problem.

 

@fnullerbasse it's empty.
@Zenexer can you give us a little hint how to use Permissions? Trying for over an hour now but not with any succes!

 

The issue with Permissions seems to be a miscommunication. Essentials' config.yml restrictions override Permissions. I will disable this, as I agree that it is counter-intuitive.

 

Thanks both of u ..... but yeah i have the same problem my server i not a big server but i whana still make sure that when people join that they dont just go around with every command on the server ......

 

I Wish i could program so i could help Zenexer or something Would made my live also easier. Hmmmm need something in minecraft there is no default plugin??? Ah i'll write it myself then... But alas

 

@Silverlink I must say, it's great to be able to say "sure, I can do that" when a server admin requests a plugin. It's sort of like super-powers.

Updated to make Permissions support more intuitive:

• When you install Permissions, the "restrict" configuration settings will fall out of effect. Permissions will take precedence.
• Permissions is a completely separate plugin. You need to install it separately.
• users.yml is not a configuration file.

 

@Zenexer You can say to the guys "Worship me as though I were a god" Thanks for the update. I Think i still have a problem with Permissions though.

 

@Zenexer Can you change the way items are added to the inventory? So say I type /i 1 1000, it would stack 1000 stone into 64's instead of it making one block with no number to tell you how many you have of it.
