Find your symptom, try the fix, and if it is still wrong read the console. **Most problems leave a line in the console** with a plugin name or a file name. ## Startup and licences | Symptom | Cause and fix | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | A plugin disables itself right after start | Its licence was refused. Look for a `License ...` line in the console and see [Licensing](/origin-smp/getting-started/licensing.md). | | `License check timed out, disabling plugin.` | The server could not reach `license.lethium.net` within 30 seconds. Check the machine's internet and firewall. | | `... is still starting up. Please wait a moment.` | The licence check is still running. Wait a few seconds. If it does not go away, look for a licence line in the console. | | StackMaster has no `license.key` in its `config.yml` | Add the `license:` section yourself. See [Installation](/origin-smp/getting-started/installation.md). | | OriginSurvival does not enable, error mentions `dev/aurelium/auraskills` or `NoClassDefFoundError` | AuraSkills is not installed. Install it. See [Hooks](/origin-smp/originsurvival/hooks.md). | | A YAML error naming a file and line | A tab, a missing quote or bad indentation. Open that file at that line. Lists with a star must be quoted: `["*"]`, never `[*]`. | | `Error occurred while enabling ` | Scroll up to the first error of that plugin. Usually a missing dependency or a broken file. | | ItemsAdder, OriginSurvival or FastAsyncWorldEdit refuse to load | The server jar is Folia or Canvas. The setup as shipped needs Paper until OriginSurvival has Folia support and ItemsAdder is replaced by Nexo or gets Folia support. See [Requirements](/origin-smp/getting-started/requirements.md). | ## Origins | Symptom | Cause and fix | | ------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | The origin menu does not open on first join | `roll.first-join.enabled` is false, or `action` is not `OPEN_GUI`. Players can always open it with `/origin`. | | A player cannot roll | They have no free rolls left and cannot pay, they are on cooldown, or `roll.mode` is `PICK`. See [Rolling](/origin-smp/originsurvival/rolling.md). | | An origin never comes up in rolls | It is disabled under `origins:` or has no weight. Run `/origin validate`. | | Origin icons are slime balls | The resource pack is not loaded. The icons are `SLIME_BALL` with custom model data from the Origin SMP pack. | | A small origin has a huge name tag | Turn on `nametag.scale-fix`. See [Chat and name tags](/origin-smp/originsurvival/chat-and-nametags.md). | | Level-up rewards were skipped | When one XP gain jumps several levels, only the last level's `level-commands` run. `/origin setlevel` runs none. Give the missed rewards by hand. | | An ability does nothing | It is listed in `features.disabled-abilities`, or `features.abilities` is off. See [Abilities](/origin-smp/originsurvival/abilities.md). | | My config change has no effect | Run `/origin reload`. Then `/origin validate` to see if the value was rejected. | ## Stacking | Symptom | Cause and fix | | ------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | Wild mobs do not stack | Expected: `stacking-entities.natural-spawns.stack: false`. Mobs from spawners, breeding and eggs still stack. See [Entity stacking](/origin-smp/stackmaster/entity-stacking.md). | | A mob type never stacks | It is on the blacklist, its per-mob limit is off, or the world is in `disabled-worlds`. | | Stacks stop growing at a number | A per-mob cap (for example zombies 200) or `general.global-max-stack-size` is lower than the stack's own `max-stack-size`. The lowest one wins. | | Jobs, quests or MobCoins count one kill per stack | Kills inside a stack do not fire a normal death event for each mob. See [Compatibility](/origin-smp/stackmaster/compatibility.md). | | `/sm give` shows a bare message key | The message is missing from your `config.yml`. Add it. See [Commands and permissions](/origin-smp/stackmaster/commands-permissions.md). | | A setting has no effect | Some keys in the default file are not read by the plugin. [config.yml](/origin-smp/stackmaster/config-yml.md) marks each of them. | | `falling back to SQLite` at start | The database you set could not be reached. See [Storage](/origin-smp/stackmaster/storage-and-sync.md). | ## Menus, icons and the HUD | Symptom | Cause and fix | | --------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | Icons are squares, plain items or slime balls | The resource pack did not load or is stale. Check `self_host` in ItemsAdder's config, run `/iazip` in game, rejoin. See [ItemsAdder and the HUD](/origin-smp/server-setup/itemsadder-and-hud.md). | | `/iazip` from the console fails | Run it in game once the server has finished starting. | | The HUD sits low on the screen | Boss bars added before the HUD push it down. Keep BetterHud's `merge-boss-bar: false`. | | Raw `&#RRGGBB` codes in a message | That plugin does not read hex codes in that place. See [Chat, TAB and menus](/origin-smp/server-setup/chat-tab-menus.md). | ## Placeholders | Symptom | Cause and fix | | ------------------------------------ | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `%originsurvival_...%` shows as text | PlaceholderAPI is missing, or `hooks.placeholderapi` is false. | | Empty value | The player has no origin, or that system is off. See [Placeholders](/origin-smp/originsurvival/placeholders.md). | | The `[gems]` chat tag shows text | `chat-tags.gems.display` in LPC's `config.yml` must use `%excellenteconomy_balance_raw_gems%`. PlayerPoints is not installed. | | Test any placeholder | `/papi parse me ` | ## Economy and fishing | Symptom | Cause and fix | | ----------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | No FarmCoins from the harvester hoe | WildTools must be installed and enabled at startup. See [Economy lanes](/origin-smp/originsurvival/economy.md). | | Lane coins stop for the day | The daily cap was reached. See [Economy lanes](/origin-smp/originsurvival/economy.md). | | Players catch only vanilla fish | Check `allowed-worlds` and `allowed-regions` in EvenMoreFish's `config.yml`: `[]` means everywhere. Then `/emf admin reload`. See [Fishing](/origin-smp/server-setup/fishing.md). | | A scheduled key-all does nothing | The crate name in `zSchedulers/schedulers.yml` does not match a CrazyCrates crate. The command is `crazycrates giveall virtual 1 -s`. | ## Commands that do not work for players | Symptom | Cause and fix | | ---------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | | Works for you, not for players | Operators pass every permission check. Test with a normal account and check the `default` group in LuckPerms. | | `Unknown command` or no permission for players | The `default` group lacks the permission. See [Ranks and kits](/origin-smp/server-setup/ranks-and-kits.md) and the plugin's commands page. | | A crate or console command fails with "players only" | `/origin souls give` only works from a player. Use another reward for console commands. |
