Plugin doesn´t create config.yml

Hello everyone,
I have a problem. I need a config.yml and used this piece of code for creating a config.yml but it doesn´t create it when i start the server.

My Code :

Code:java

package main;
 
import java.util.HashMap;
 
import org.bukkit.ChatColor;
import org.bukkit.Material;
import org.bukkit.command.Command;
import org.bukkit.command.CommandSender;
import org.bukkit.entity.Player;
import org.bukkit.event.EventHandler;
import org.bukkit.event.Listener;
import org.bukkit.event.block.Action;
import org.bukkit.event.player.PlayerInteractEvent;
import org.bukkit.plugin.PluginManager;
import org.bukkit.plugin.java.JavaPlugin;
 
public class main extends JavaPlugin implements Listener
{
public void onEnable()
{
PluginManager pm = this.getServer().getPluginManager();
pm.registerEvents(new EventListener(this), this);
pm.registerEvents(new Waffen(this), this);
pm.registerEvents(this, this);
 
this.reloadConfig();
this.getConfig().options().header("Config for PlayerProfiles");
this.getConfig().addDefault("MyViCrime.PlayerProfiles.Crime", "null");
this.getConfig().options().copyDefaults(true);
this.saveConfig();
System.out.println("[MyViCrime] Config loaded!");
}
 
public void onDisable()
{
 
}
 

 

HappyMaj0r have you created the config.yml in your project? There has to be a default one, otherwise the plugin does not create a config/folder.
Also, do not get the config each time, get the FileConfiguration once and work with that, it is better to work with.

Code:java

final FileConfiguration config = this.getConfig();

And you could also just save the default config first, that is defently going to create a file:

Code:java

this.saveDefaultConfig();

 

I created a empty config.yml at /src and exported it.
But my plugin still doesn´t create the config.yml. I dont even see the config.yml in the exportlist from eclipse.

 

HappyMaj0r then you put it at a worng location, make sure it is on the same level as the plugin.yml. Do not put it into the src folder, put it outside of it. If your plugin loads up, then the plugin.yml is at the correct location so just place your config.yml there aswell. Also, refresh your project before exporting.

 

Oh its working now. I just deleted my plugin and exported it completely new instead of overwriting it.

Code:java

final FileConfiguration config = this.getConfig();
 
 

I did th at now too.
Its working now thank you !
