Permissions issues

[Diddums]

Hey guys,

I seem to be either retarded or stuck. I presume the former, but I'm hoping that there are nice enough folks on here to help me out. I've set up a server for a small community, which has been running for a fortnight or so now, but it's getting to the point of having to install plugins to enhance everyone's experience. My biggest issue at the moment is creating groups within PermissionsEX.

I've installed the plugin itself, and it's working fine, but I'm unable to create any groups to start sorting them out and their permissions. I've created a Permissions.yml file which I've uploaded to the root folder of my plugins (where I was told to install all the JAR files, not in subdirectories) and I've added in the text from the support page, as follows:

groups:

default:

default: true

permissions:

- modifyworld.*

Admins:

prefix: '&0(&4Admins&0)&7 '

permissions:

- permissions.*

users:

YourPlayerName:

group:

- Admins

permissions:

- permissions.*

I've obviously replaced YourPlayerName with my own name, but for some reason I still can't create any groups. Can anyone shed any light on this?

Nobody?

You put the jars in the plugin directory, run the server, and it will create its own folder with a few files. Paste that into the one it makes.

Also, dont double post or bump

Alright cheers, that was certainly a step in the right direction. Still loads to do, but progress is at least being made now. Thanks!

No problem :)

The permissions file in the root folder is the default bukkit permissions file, which doesn't get used when you use PEX. Your PEX permissions.yml file should go in your permissionsex folder.

Root tekkit folder/Plugins/permissionsEX/permissions.yml

PermissionsEX is a plugin not a mod.

@vdub, Your yml coding isnt right. causing to break down, make sure you dont have any tabs in it and make sure your alignment is correct.

You can check that here: http://yaml-online-parser.appspot.com/

if you make it correct it should look like this:

groups:

   default:

    default: true

    permissions:

    - modifyworld.*

   Admins:

    prefix: '&0(&4Admins&0)&7 '

    permissions:

    - permissions.*

   users:

    YourPlayerName:

     group:

     - Admins

Erm I wasn't having issues, the OP was. I'm just assuming by his wording that he was trying to use the bukkit permissions.yml and not the actual permissionsEX one.

Scrap this. Apologies.
