[WARNING] Unexpected exception while parsing console command

Hey, i'm trying to make a plugin, and 1 of the features should be a console broadcast and a console chat. It should only be able to be used from the console and not by a player. this is what i get when trying to use it:

here is what i get from ingame

Console Broadcast:

Console Chat:


for some reason it wouldnt let me use the img bbcode
My code is:

Code:text

 
if(cmd.getName().equalsIgnoreCase("cb"))
{
if (cs instanceof Player)
{
player.sendMessage("§1[§bEEFPermissionsEx§1]§c This command can only be fired from console!");
returnfalse;
}
else
{
Bukkit.broadcastMessage("§e[§6Console Broadcast§e]§9 " + consoleBroadcast);
}
returntrue;
}
if(cmd.getName().equalsIgnoreCase("cc"))
{
Bukkit.broadcastMessage("§d[§5Console Chat§d]§c " + consoleChat);
returntrue;
}
returnfalse;
}
 

i removed the

Code:text

 
if (cs instanceof Player)
{
player.sendMessage("§1[§bEEFPermissionsEx§1]§c This command can only be fired from console!");
return false;
}
 

From the CC command to test if it was that.

 

Caused by: java.lang.ClassCastException: org.bukkit.craftbukkit.command.ColouredConsoleSender cannot be cast to org.bukkit.entity.Player
dont cast to a player whitout checking

 

?

 

you trying to do (Player)sender, that is what failed, only try to cast when its realy needed, and if its not an player, dont cast but send a message that the console it cant use it

 

Sorry, i'm kinda new to this. how do i fix it then?

 

if you give the full code and the line where it happend (its hard to count the lines)

the first line of your command excutor, your doing
Player player = (Player) cs;
whitout checking is cs is realy an player

 

so i would do

Code:JAVA

 
 
if (cs instanceof Player)
{
Player player = (Player) cs;
}
 

?

 

actualy, you can do
Payer player = null;
if (cs instanceof Player)
{
player = (Player) cs;
}
and when you need a player ad an function, just make sure player is not null
