Plugin Help Error Could not load 'plugins/plugin.jar' in folder 'plugins'

Hello,

I have recently been learning how to create Java 1.8 Bukkit Plugins using Java Eclipse. While I am creating a plugin, everything is okay, but while I upload the plugin.jar to my server's plugins folder and start my server, I always get a message in the CONSOLE saying:

Error Could not load 'plugins/(plugin_name).jar' in folder 'plugins'

For those who have knowledge of this error, here is the CONSOLE log. http://imgur.com/a/3JziG

Here is a link from my Eclipse: http://imgur.com/a/72ZFi

Here is my plugin.yml text:

Code:

name: Help

version: 1.0

main: com.americanredbird.dev.main

description: Help Command!



commands:

help:

description: Help Command

usage: /help

Thank you for reading and if you know how to fix this error please inform me using the comments.

 

@timtower Fixed that issue, although plugin will still not load in to my server.

    aliases: [This, is, also, optional]

 

@timtower

The plugin is now loading in correctly, thank you! Just another small question, as I execute the command /help in my CONSOLE, all that I receive is INFO /help. Is there something incorrect about my Commands.java class?

 

Code:

package com.americanredbird.dev.commands;

import org.bukkit.command.Command;
import org.bukkit.command.CommandExecutor;
import org.bukkit.command.CommandSender;
import org.bukkit.entity.Player;

public class Commands implements CommandExecutor{

@Override
public boolean onCommand(CommandSender sender, Command cmd, String label, String[] a) {
Player p = (Player) sender;
p.sendMessage("&6&lPlease message an online staff member for assistance.");
return false;
}

}

 

@timtower Changed, although through CONSOLE, the same issue is occurring. "INFO /help"

 

Code:

 
package com.americanredbird.dev;

import java.util.logging.Logger;

import org.bukkit.plugin.PluginDescriptionFile;
import org.bukkit.plugin.java.JavaPlugin;

public class Main extends JavaPlugin {
 
 public Logger logger = Logger.getLogger("Minecraft");
 
 public void onEnable() {
 PluginDescriptionFile pdffile = getDescription();
 logger.info(pdffile.getName() + "Has been enabled! Version: " + pdffile.getVersion());
 }

 public void onDisable() {
 PluginDescriptionFile pdffile = getDescription();
 logger.info(pdffile.getName() + "Has been disabled!");
 }
}

This is my Main.java code.

Here is my Commands.java code:

Code:

[LIST=1]
[*]

[*]package com.americanredbird.dev.commands;
[*]

[*]import org.bukkit.command.Command;
[*]import org.bukkit.command.CommandExecutor;
[*]import org.bukkit.command.CommandSender;
[*]import org.bukkit.entity.Player;

[*]public class Commands implements CommandExecutor{

[*]@Override
[*]public boolean onCommand(CommandSender sender, Command cmd, String label, String[] a) {
[*]Player p = (Player) sender;
[*]p.sendMessage("&6&lPlease message an online staff member for assistance.");
[*]return false;
[*]}
[*]

[*]}
[/LIST]
[LIST=1]

[/LIST]

 

@timtower I have fixed everything, and the plugin is now working. Thank you for your support, and have a good day/night.

 

@AmericanRedBird Just a tip to help you in your development. Don't learn from TheBCBroz. Remove the onEnable and onDisable messages Bukkit does it for you, remove the logger and remove onDisable since it is unused.
