Hello,
My PermissionsEx is set to save the data in a MySQL database.
When I run "/pex reload", some permissions can be randomly removed.
I think It's because I have a lot of permissions => max(id) = 7000
The auto_incrementation is very strange ... 6000 to 7000 for example
Can you help me ? Thanks you.

Are you using McMyAdmin control panel?

If your answer to this question is "YES", you need to find a different host. McMyAdmin appears to load the permissions.yml file contents into memory and runs the server based on the information in memory. When the server is shut down or restarted the information in memory is rewritten into the permissions.yml file, overwriting any changes that had been made while the server was online. This gives the illusion that PEX is removing permission nodes when it actually is not; the control panel/host is doing this.

I'm not using McMyAdmin .. :/

Same problem

@Stormbow I'm not using McMyAdmin

@Stormbow Is it a PermissionsEx issue ?

I don't think it's a PEX issue. Zml may know more.

Unfortunately PermissionsEx is currently unmaintained and no further updates are planned. Because of this, all pull requests are being closed. If you are looking for an actively maintained permissions plugin, take a look at LuckPerms. It is compatible with major server platforms and can import data from PEX.
