    I have the following code (Java programming language, Bukkit/Spigot API).

    I would like to save the output (player coordinates) of the minecraft game into a file named player.log.

    Thus, if my player username was 'abce', the name of the file should be 'abce.log'.

    However, I can't find where on my server this file has been stored - it is not in the plugins folder where I would like it to be.

    I have attached a screenshot below of where I would like the file to be saved (which is remotely in an external shock-byte server plugins folder).

    I would be so grateful for a helping hand!

    Code:
    package newestfile.here.newestplugin;

import java.util.UUID;
import java.nio.charset.StandardCharsets;
import java.nio.file.StandardOpenOption;
import java.text.SimpleDateFormat;
import java.util.Date;

import java.io.File;
import org.bukkit.event.player.PlayerQuitEvent;
import org.bukkit.event.EventHandler;
import org.bukkit.entity.Player;
import org.bukkit.Location;
import org.bukkit.event.player.PlayerJoinEvent;
import org.bukkit.Bukkit;
import org.bukkit.event.Listener;
import org.bukkit.plugin.java.JavaPlugin;
import org.bukkit.scheduler.BukkitTask;
import java.nio.file.Files;

public class Main extends JavaPlugin implements Listener
{
    boolean stopRepeater;
    HashMap<UUID, BukkitTask> tasks = new HashMap<>();
    private File dataFolder;
  
    public void onEnable() {
        Bukkit.getServer().getPluginManager().registerEvents(this,this);
        getLogger().info("HELLO! WELCOME TO THE TRACKER PLUGIN");
        dataFolder = new File(getDataFolder(), "data");
        dataFolder.mkdirs();
    }
  
    @EventHandler
    public void onLogin(final PlayerJoinEvent event) {
        final Player thePlayer = event.getPlayer();
        this.stopRepeater = true;
        final Location playerSpawnLocation = thePlayer.getLocation();
        getLogger().info("Welcome " + thePlayer.getName() + ". Your current position is: " + playerSpawnLocation);
        BukkitTask task = getServer().getScheduler().runTaskTimer(this, () -> {
            if(this.stopRepeater) {
                this.logToFile(thePlayer, thePlayer.getLocation());
            }
        }, 0L, 20L);
        tasks.put(thePlayer.getUniqueId(),task);}
  
    @EventHandler
    public void onQuit(final PlayerQuitEvent event) {
        Player thePlayer = event.getPlayer();
        if(!thePlayer.isOnline()) {
            this.stopRepeater = false;
            getLogger().info(String.valueOf(event.getPlayer().getName()) + " has left the game");
            BukkitTask task = tasks.remove(thePlayer.getUniqueId());
            if(task != null) {
               task.cancel();
            }
        }
    }

    public void logToFile(final Player currentPlayer, final Location playerCurrentLocation) {
        try {
            String content = String.valueOf(new SimpleDateFormat("dd-MM-yyyy HH:mm:ss").format(new Date())) + " CurrentLocation(x,y,z): " + playerCurrentLocation.getBlockX() + " " + playerCurrentLocation.getBlockY() + " " + playerCurrentLocation.getBlockZ() + "\n";
            final File file = new File(dataFolder, currentPlayer.getName() + ".log");
            if (!file.exists()) {
                file.createNewFile();
            }
            Files.write(file.toPath(),content.getBytes(StandardCharsets.UTF_8),StandardOpenOption.APPEND);
        } catch (Exception e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
     }
}

    @timtower you mean the 'player.log' file? This did not show any such errors... :(

    No, the latest.log

    This is the output of the 'latest.log' file. It seems to be printing the UUID (hash map ID) of the player and their coordinates at the original starting point - but not throughout the game (which is what I want) :)

    Why are we talking about logging the players when the problem was a folder not being created?

    Sorry! Am I right in putting the '.jar' file into the 'plugins' folder as in my screenshot below? (The .jar file was created from running 'mvn clean package' in the terminal'?

    It runs right? So how would that part be the issue?

    Yes, it runs, but there is no file called 'player.log' being produced, which the code should execute. No?

    Also, which folder is the dataFolder part of the code referring to on my server?

    plugins/yourpluginname

    Then look at the full server log, not just the last part.
    Post your full server log using https://pastebin.com

    My plugin name is 'newestplugin'.

    I have a folder called 'plugins'.

    However, I do not have a folder that is called 'newestplugin' within my 'plugins' folder.

    This is what I think I am missing!

    Should this be created by the code or do I need to manually create the 'newestplugin' (yourpluginname) folder within the 'plugins' folder?

    Regarding 'pastebin' - do I clone the output and post it here?

    @caledonian26 No, you don't make the folder yourself.
    And you clone the log, put it in pastebin, hit save, post link here.

    @caledonian26 I told you to put it in pastebin!
    Can you explain why it is so hard to follow instructions? Happened multiple times already.
    Code:

    What do you mean? That's what I did.

    This is what my plugin.yml file looks like.

    Does that look right to you?

    Code:
    name:newestplugin
main:newestfile.here.newestplugin.Main
version:0.0.1-SNAPSHOT

    You were supposed to put a pastebin link here, not the content of the log.
    And the plugin.yml is not in the jar, does not matter them what it looks like

    Oh I'm so sorry for the misunderstanding!

    I was asking about the plugin.yml as I wanted to make sure that the content was right (in case that was what was causing the problem) :)

    Just to clarify, could I check that the following look right to you?

    plugin.yml file

    Code:
    name:newestplugin
main:newestfile.here.newestplugin.Main
version:0.0.1-SNAPSHOT
api-version: 1.19
    pom.xml file

    Code:
    <project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 https://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd">

    Then the error would have said so.

    And I don't know how to read pom files, I am oldschool with my plugins, so can't help with that.

    In the message you posted above:

    Code:
    Caused by: java.io.FileNotFoundException: Jar does not contain plugin.yml
... 7 more
    So that means that when I ran 'mvn clean package' in the terminal to produce the '.jar' file, the 'plugin.yml' file was not included in this .jar file even though it should have been?

    @caledonian26 Like I said: I don't know how maven works, I am oldschool with my plugin making and exporting.
    I don't use maven.

    Ok thanks so much for your support! :)

    Could you confirm where this error message came from? (how did you view the output of my code?)

    Server gives the issue. It is in your logs. You read the logs to see the issue.
