On the initial install of Autorank, the simple config, advanced config, player data, and language files did not generate. Only a config.yml and a data.yml. No bother. I created the two configs manually using the examples from the wiki, then configured my advanced settings and included some settings from the super advanced. I touched nothing in the simple config as I assumed the plugin would read the advanced config and disregard the simple config.
I initially did /ar relord, received the message that AutoRank had reloaded and I went about my day. After my server restarted due to an unrelated crash, AR returns a message saying "permissions group is not defined; 'guest'" I had no guest group either in my permission ranks or in the advanced AR config. Only the simple config. The problem did not go away after a legitimate restart using /stop or doing /ar reload. I attempted to edit the simple config and changed it to my ranks and the problem still persisted.
It seems as though even if the advanced config is enabled, the simple config is still read.
You must be using version 1.7. It's the version the big download button on bukkitdev takes you too because the newer versions have been in beta since like a year ago.
I think Staartvin should mark them as a full release because most people click the main download button out of habit.
That was the point. Anyways,checking over my plugin files today, a different file was generated by Autorank with all the correct files. (About four hours ago, while the server was running) I did edit them to the correct configuration and they seemed to have made the issue disappear. I think I saw another bug ticket where Autorank corrected itself after some time. Odd that it didn't generate the correct files initially.
