Problem/Bug Group Manager not working for me.

Hi, I have the latest Spigot and their fixed Essentials installed on my server. I'm trying to set up permissions but i'm struggling. I use McMyAdmin to manage my server and have had no luck getting it to work through there. If I de-op myself, I should still have permissions to all commands and have my name colour change and a prefix, which I don't and commands don't work. How do I fix this?

This is my users.yml in the world folder-

Code:

users:
  Reddax:
    group: 'Administrators'
    info:
      build: true
    permissions: []

This is my groups.yml file in the world folder-

Code:

groups:
  Everyone:
    default: true
    info:
      prefix: ''
      suffix: ''
      build: true
    permissions: []
  Regulars:
    default: false
    info:
      prefix: '&a'
      suffix: ''
      build: true
    inheritance:
      - Everyone
    permissions: []
  Moderators:
    default: false
    info:
      prefix: '&1'
      suffix: ''
      build: true
    inheritance:
      - Regulars
    permissions: []
  Administrators:
    default: false
    info:
      prefix: '&c[Test] '
      suffix: ''
      build: true
    inheritance:
      - Moderators
    permissions:
      - '*'
      - bukkit.command.*

 

1. Make sure you're using version 2.1.31 from here - http://ci.ess3.net/viewType.html?buildTypeId=bt10&guest=1

2. Delete your entry in users.yml

3. Start your server

4. /op Reddax (or use the console for the next command)

5. /manuadd Reddax Administrators

6. /deop Reddax

You should be all set. You can check your group with /manwhois Reddax

By using the in-game commands, GroupManager is able to lookup your UUID, plus it ensures the contents of the config files is always syntactically correct. I recommend using in-game commands whenever possible.

 

I didn't have the Groupmanager .jar file installed >.> It works now. Thanks a lot.

 

Ha, ha. That's like forgetting to plug in the toy train set. Glad you got it working.

But again, my preference is to use the in-game GroupManager commands whenever possible (instead of editing the .yml files). That way you don't have to worry about YAML syntax errors. It avoids a lot of problems.
