Solved How to clear all drops without console access?

Hi,

ive got a problem: A player on my server created an overflowing cobble gen. Now the server get stuck when I try to restart. I dont have console access, only FTP and via a Webform where I can restart or stop the server.

Do you have any idea how I can delete all the drops from the savefile? I looked for some Plugins, but it seems as if they only work from ingame via a console command. So I wondered if it is possible to remove the items directly from the savefile?

Thanks...

 

No. Needs to be a command

Hmm, meanwhile I found a solution:

I used World Edit. Luckily there is a Version that supports the new Anvil Map format:
https://github.com/mcedit/mcedit/downloads
MCEdit-0.1.1.win32.zip

With that Version its also very convenient to find and jump to player positions. Since I knew which player caused the big lag, I was able to jump to him. After unselecting that items should be shown, the editor was running with more than 0.04 FPS and I was able to delete the entities around.
