Hey there, I have posted this before, but I believe in the wrong section.. Anyway, I am having some trouble trying to get my plugin working, although when I loaded it up, I get this error. [18:08:52] [Server thread/ERROR]: Could not load 'plugins/Recipes.jar' in folder 'plugins' org.bukkit.plugin.InvalidDescriptionException: Invalid plugin.yml at org.bukkit.plugin.java.JavaPluginLoader.getPluginDescription(JavaPluginLoader.java:152) ~[minecraft_server.jar:git-Spigot-1.7.9-R0.2-207-g03373bb] at org.bukkit.plugin.SimplePluginManager.loadPlugins(SimplePluginManager.java:133) [minecraft_server.jar:git-Spigot-1.7.9-R0.2-207-g03373bb] at org.bukkit.craftbukkit.v1_7_R4.CraftServer.loadPlugins(CraftServer.java:369) [minecraft_server.jar:git-Spigot-1.7.9-R0.2-207-g03373bb] at net.minecraft.server.v1_7_R4.DedicatedServer.init(DedicatedServer.java:152) [minecraft_server.jar:git-Spigot-1.7.9-R0.2-207-g03373bb] at net.minecraft.server.v1_7_R4.MinecraftServer.run(MinecraftServer.java:458) [minecraft_server.jar:git-Spigot-1.7.9-R0.2-207-g03373bb] at net.minecraft.server.v1_7_R4.ThreadServerApplication.run(SourceFile:628) [minecraft_server.jar:git-Spigot-1.7.9-R0.2-207-g03373bb] Caused by: java.io.FileNotFoundException: Jar does not contain plugin.yml ... 6 more The plugin.yml file is in the .jar as I have extracted it. Any ideas?
Make sure that the plugin.yml is in the src, and not the package. That is probably the cause of the, Jar does not contain plugin.yml, error.
You have to make a plugin.yml : Right Click on Your src Folder Left Click on New Left Click on File Enter "plugin.yml" goto your plugin.yml and then enter this: Code: name: PluginName version: PluginVersion author: YourName main: YourMainPackage.YourMainClass commands: testcommand: description: this is a test command usage: permission: OP
