Plugin Help PEX Help

Hi, I have been running this version of PEX on my 1.6.2 server a while back and I changed some things and now I wanted to host it on my 1.8 server but somehow I get this error below (here is my permissions http:pastebin.com/EJeQKqGD) it is very long and like 10% of it is useless like Admin group and the anticheat bits since I no longer use them but that shouldn't matter. If you have a way to quickly find errors like spaces or tabs I would appreciate knowing it too.
If I delete my Permissions file it creates a new one and I no longer have this error:

I'm sorry but I can't find an error there. A little trick I used a while ago was that I would copy paste each rank and then test to see if it works, eventually you will find errors which you can fix.

 

Well somehow it manages to pass the YAML parser without spitting out errors, but I can still see several formatting issues in there. First of all, when PEX updated to version 1.22, they moved the prefix lines to under the options section. All of your prefixes need moved. Example of where the prefixes go now, using your first group:

Code:

groups:
  default:
    options:
      default: true
      prefix: '&d[Guest]&f'
    permissions:
    - -ChestShop.shop.sell
    - -ChestShop.shop.buy
    - modifyworld.chat
    - -moneydrop.*
    - essentials.suicide

Next, you have a space on the first line right before the word groups. That space should not be there. Your default: true line is also misaligned.

This last group is a formatting mess and looks like you were doing in-game commands and accidentally mistyped some of them:

Code:

  adminfigher:
    worlds:
      -afk.auto:
        permissions:
        - '-'
    permissions:
    - -essentials.afk.auto
    - -afk.auto

You have more formatting problems with your first user entry:

Code:

  Si7vder:
    group:
    - AdminFighter
    prefix: ''
    options:
      groop: AdminFighter
      group: fighter
    suffix: '&9?'
    worlds:
      '&1':
        suffix: set

Again, looks like mistypes with the in-game commands.

And finally, that messages section at the bottom. As far as I know, PEX doesn't use a section like that. If this has changed however and it does use one now, then you need to remove the single space before the word messages. Same problem you had at the beginning of your file right before the word groups.

Hope this helps.
