    It's been a while, and bukkit has had to reinvent parts of itself many times now since the original concept of merging these grief logging plugins, is major development still being put into this plugin? I noticed a recent post saying that the actual log and storage is complete, and also available to download if I wanted to start tracking users now. But are the search, rollback, and other misc. features still in development, or have they been scrapped?

    not sure if this has been suggested yet, but I have trouble with LB's SQL DB stuff, I know I have it enabled and in the right spot but the server just doesn't read it at all, so why not make it easier to use so that it doesn't need to access the DB through a connection and have it able to write to a DB in the same folder as the yml files for ease of access, I mean it would make my life easier, and I wouldn't have to go crazy trying to find SQL errors, for this plugin only when all my other SQL plugins work perfectly fine...

    You should look into WorldEdit's snapshots feature. You can select their house and "//restore" just that area to your last backup very easily once you see how it works (provided you have frequent backups).

    WorldGuard's blacklist feature can send warnings real-time to admins that are online about bucket (or pretty much any) usage by non-admins. If that's what you mean (and have WG).

    And suddenly I'm a shill for SK's plugins :p

    There are different types of SQL servers, make sure you're using the right one (PostgreSQL vs. MySQL for example)
    The reason these plugins require a SQL server is because a file based database (ALA SQLite) is completely impractical for logging. After even a day of moderate usage, the log file becomes so big that for the SQLite plugin to do a search, it will take ages and can even lock the server up. Those kind of file-based databases are horrible for the massive database that these logging plugins produce.

    That seems to imply that MySQL and PostgreSQL don't use files... obviously they have to store the stuff somewhere on the filesystem. I suppose the difference is that MySQK/PostgreSQL would have some of the data cached in memory and write to the file less often, or something.

    I didn't mean to imply that. MySQL does cache the most frequent data I do beleive but not enough to really matter. The way MySQL handles its data is far better than with SQLite, which causes SQLite to perform extremely sluggish when dealing with databases that grow this huge. Also for each query the -ENTIRE- SQLite database gets locked so nothing else can query it until each operation is done. This with reading/writing possibly hundreds of events per second will create an extremely slow database and a backlog of queued queries. That, and the read speed of SQLite with a database this large is very slow.

    A long way back someone mentioned they could compile a build for me to test, is that still possible.

    will i have to use MySQL server ? (i have NO idea how, why, or what that is).

    And Bigbrother worked fine without MySQL server, so im hoping that the one you guys are making is also without MySQL server....

    Nope...not the first versions...they used H2 or what ever its called..... I used BigBrother until they started using MySQL - and since i dont know anything about MySQL - i then stopped using BB....

    I had this error, too. I don't know why, eventually you have to install mysql.

    Looks like a class is missing in the jar. Please download it again.

    You'll probably be able to use h2 for this.

    MySQL is very simple to set up, configure, and use. It doesn't take much and I recommend you use it. The performance difference compared to H2 or SQLite is staggering.

    However, if I'm not mistaken, some web hosts might not give you that option, right?

    If you are still looking for people: Heya, I am ok in php but I would love to help at a Web Interface. I am very experienced in Javascript HTML and CSS. It would be good to make the interface realtime. I would be willing to do some work on this.

    An idea, I believe Java supports websockets, so you could make the plugin work as a server and directly serve the content. Websockets would also allow for realtime updates. PHP could still be used as fallback for websockets and for an API

    no matter the SQL settings it will not connect to anything. Guardian was able to at least create DB's although not work.

    this is what I get in game

    "No database connected, Check your MySQL user/pw and database, Start/restart your MySQL server." using same credentials as Hawkeye, mcmmo, ownblockx

    thx for the paste, it seems whenever I leave the password blank and save config and restart server is defaults the password to pass for the SQL how can I stop this? Make it read only?
