Solved PermissionsEx Syntax Error?

I set up PermissionsEx lately, but whenever I try to promote myself to admin on my server, it says Syntax Error. The PasteBin Below shows the error. Any suggestions? NOTE: I just checked to make sure spacing is right, Syntax is gone, but now this shows.

And here is my permissions.yml

When granting all permissions, use

Code:

- '*'

not

Code:

- *

Code:

groups:
  default:
    default: true
    prefix: '&2Newcomers!&f'
    permissions:
    - modifyworld.*
    - essentials.sethome
    - essentials.home
    - sg.arena.join.*
    - sg.arena.vote
    - sg.arena.spectate
    - sg.lobby.join
  Admin:
    default: false
    prefix: '&6Admin&f'
    permissions:
    - '*'
    - -essentials.give
    - -essentials.item
  Co-Owner:
    default: false
    prefix: '&4Co-Owner&f'
    permissions:
    - '*'
    - -essentials.give
    - -essentials.item
  Owner:
    default: false
    prefix: '&6Owner&f'
    permissions:
    - '*'
    - -essentials.give
    - -essentials.item
 
 
Users:
    Boogaloo345:
      group: Admin
      prefix: '&6[Admin] Boogaloo345&f'
      permissions:
      - '*'
    Sparks8805:
      group: Co-Owner
      prefix: '&4[Co-Owner] Sparks8805&f'
      permissions:
      - '*'
    AcheyBreakyFart:
      group: Admin
      prefix: '&6[Admin] ABF&f'
      permissions:
      - '*'
    raysfan00:
      group: Owner
      prefix: '&6[Owner] raysfan00&f'
      permissions:
      - '*'

 

One more question, why does it say "User raysfan00 not in ladder". So it keeps me at default rank. Any idea?

 

You need to put the ladder. replace your permissiosn for:

Code:

groups:
  default:
    default: true
    prefix: '&2Newcomers!&f'
    permissions:
    - modifyworld.*
    - essentials.sethome
    - essentials.home
    - sg.arena.join.*
    - sg.arena.vote
    - sg.arena.spectate
    - sg.lobby.join
    options:
      rank: '4'
  Admin:
    default: false
    prefix: '&6Admin&f'
    permissions:
    - '*'
    - -essentials.give
    - -essentials.item
    options:
      rank: '3'
  Co-Owner:
    default: false
    prefix: '&4Co-Owner&f'
    permissions:
    - '*'
    - -essentials.give
    - -essentials.item
    options:
      rank: '2'
  Owner:
    default: false
    prefix: '&6Owner&f'
    permissions:
    - '*'
    - -essentials.give
    - -essentials.item
    options:
      rank: '1'
Users:
    Boogaloo345:
      group: Admin
      prefix: '&6[Admin] Boogaloo345&f'
      permissions:
      - '*'
    Sparks8805:
      group: Co-Owner
      prefix: '&4[Co-Owner] Sparks8805&f'
      permissions:
      - '*'
    AcheyBreakyFart:
      group: Admin
      prefix: '&6[Admin] ABF&f'
      permissions:
      - '*'
    raysfan00:
      group: Owner
      prefix: '&6[Owner] raysfan00&f'
      permissions:
      - '*'

then do /pex user <your username> group set Admin

 

Thanks for the help! Problem Solved!
