Did you run your permissions.yml through an Online YAML Parser to make sure you didn't mess up the format?
How do I shot my Code:java groups: Owner: default: false prefix: '&1[Owner]' permissions: - '*' inheritance: - MVP Administrator: default: false prefix: '&7[ADMIN]' permissions: - '*' inheritance: - Obsidian Obsidian: default: false prefix: '&2[Obsidian]' permissions: - essentials.signs.use.free - essentials.signs.use.time - essentials.signs.use.warp - essentials.kit - essentials.kits.starter - essentials.kits.iron - essentials.kits.gold - essentials.kits.diamond - essentials.kits.obsidian - essentials.balance - essentials.balancetop - essentials.pay - essentials.nick.color - essentials.nick - essentials.helpop - essentials.sethome - essentials.home - essentials.spawn - essentials.rules - essentials.msg - essentials.ignore - essentials.list - essentials.enderchest - xteam.core.user.* - xteam.core.leader.* inheritance: - Diamond options: rank: '0' Diamond: default: false prefix: '&3[Diamond]' inheritance: - Gold permissions: - essentials.tpa - essentials.tpaccept - essentials.tpdeny - essentials.tpahere - essentials.spawn - essentials.money - essentials.kit - essentials.kits.starter - essentials.kits.iron - essentials.kits.gold - essentials.kits.diamond - essentials.balance - essentials.balancetop - essentials.pay - essentials.sethome - essentials.home - essentials.helpop - essentials.spawn - essentials.rules - essentials.msg - essentials.ignore - essentials.list - essentials.enderchest - xteam.core.user.* - xteam.core.admin.* - xteam.core.leader.* options: rank: '100' Gold: default: false prefix: '&6[Gold]' inheritance: - Iron permissions: - essentials.tpa - essentials.tpaccept - essentials.tpdeny - essentials.tpahere - essentials.spawn - essentials.money - essentials.kit - essentials.kits.starter - essentials.kits.iron - essentials.kits.gold - essentials.balance - essentials.balancetop - essentials.pay - essentials.sethome - essentials.home - essentials.helpop - essentials.spawn - essentials.rules - essentials.msg - essentials.ignore - essentials.list - essentials.enderchest - xteam.core.user.* - xteam.core.admin.* - xteam.core.leader.* options: rank: '200' Iron: default: false prefix: '&4[Iron]' inheritance: - Builder permissions: - essentials.tpa - essentials.tpaccept - essentials.tpdeny - essentials.tpahere - essentials.spawn - essentials.money - essentials.kit - essentials.kits.starter - essentials.kits.iron - essentials.balance - essentials.balancetop - essentials.pay - essentials.sethome - essentials.home - essentials.helpop - essentials.spawn - essentials.rules - essentials.msg - essentials.ignore - essentials.list - essentials.enderchest - xteam.core.user.* - xteam.core.admin.* - xteam.core.leader.* options: rank: '300' Player: permissions: - essentials.tpa - essentials.tpaccept - essentials.tpdeny - essentials.tpahere - essentials.spawn - essentials.money - essentials.kit - essentials.kits.starter - essentials.balance - essentials.balancetop - essentials.pay - essentials.sethome - essentials.home - essentials.helpop - essentials.spawn - essentials.rules - essentials.msg - essentials.ignore - essentials.list - essentials.enderchest - xteam.core.user.* - xteam.core.admin.* - xteam.core.leader.* inheritance: - null prefix: '&8[Player]' default: true options: rank: '400' users: korffk: group: - Owner mennootje81: group: - Player ParakashiK: group: - Admin Synises: group: - Owner macastone88: group: - Diamond princemojang: group: - default brandonman567: group: - Member crasyman67: group: - Admin SurvivalCraft994 LHammonds http://pastebin.com/uYqTHh6C EDIT by Moderator: merged posts, please use the edit button instead of double posting.
Kinda hard to tell for sure since you put the text inside a java tag but it looks like you have a space before "groups:" on line #2 and a space before "users:" on line # 180 where there should be none. It seems you want everything setup to inherit from other groups...but your last group "Iron" is configured to inherit from a group called "Builder" which does not exist. You probably meant to have your default group listed in there: "Player" If "Inheritance" is null (Line 174) and you don't need to inherit anything, remove this line. Side note #1: You are giving all permissions to the "Owner" group yet you are trying to inherit from a non-existent group called MVP. You are also giving all permissions to "Admin" but also inheriting from "Obsidian" which makes no sense because if you already have access to all permission nodes, you don't need to inherit permissions from anything else. You should also AVOID using "*" because not all plugins are designed where you "should" get all permission nodes. VanishNoPacket for example. Side note #2: You have the same Essential permissions copied over and over again in multiple groups that seem to be designed for inheritance. So remove all the duplicates and let the nodes only be referenced one time which will simplify your perms file. Example: essentials.tpa is in your "Iron" group. Gold is setup to inherit permissions from Iron. You do not need to specify the same permission node in Gold.
