Code:java

package rbrick.custom.recipes;
 
import org.bukkit.Bukkit;
import org.bukkit.Material;
import org.bukkit.inventory.ItemStack;
import org.bukkit.inventory.ShapedRecipe;
import org.bukkit.plugin.java.JavaPlugin;
 
public class customRecipes extends JavaPlugin {
//This is what happens onEnable
public void onEnable(){
 
ShapedRecipe goldenapple = new ShapedRecipe(new ItemStack(Material.GOLDEN_APPLE ,'1'));
goldenapple.shape("GGG","GDG","GGG");
goldenapple.setIngredient('G', Material.GOLDEN_APPLE);
goldenapple.setIngredient('D', Material.DIAMOND_BLOCK);
 
Bukkit.getServer().addRecipe(goldenapple);
 
}
 
}

if this isn't the thread to post it on then please tell me

 

That error normally means one of two things:
1: The "main" line in your plugin.yml is wrong. Make sure that all the class names and package names (if any) are correct. It is all case-sensitive.
2: You checked the wrong boxes when exporting your plugin (assuming you're using Eclipse.) It should look like this:

Show Spoiler Hide Spoiler

 

The plugin is looking for the main class at rbrick.custom.recipes which is the name of your package, but you need to add the main class to the end, so in plugin.yml, it should read "main: rbrick.custom.recipes.customRecipes"

 

thank you it is now working.
