OK after a few months, I'm back at this again, this time in the near future another of my plugins will work better if I have PEX 2.0. Guess what I need is list of command and perms, mostly I need to be able to use PEX commands. I have deleted old PEX folder on my test server and booted up with PEX 2.0 with my account as OP 4 it will not let me use commands. In console I was about to create a group called Owner. When I try to add perms from console it crashes server. Need to set a group so I can manually add perms, orr is there a way to import from my current PEX flat file or SQL?

@zml2008 will have to handle this one, since it's a PEX 2.x issue and PEX 2.x is still in development.

I would like to get a head start on getting my permissions done, since it's 2800 lines long, My first attempt to convert to PEX 2.0 was so I can have multi default groups for each server.

If you have the old bukkit/pex 1.x folder structure set up (config at plugins/PermissionsEx/{config,permissions}.yml), then PEX 2 will automatically convert the configuration over to the 2.x format. The 2.0 commands and command permissions are also different -- check the Ore page for more details on that. If you get any crashes, please post the full stacktrace and the full command you tried -- without that information your error report is useless.

OK I restored my test server back before I started to figure out PEX 2.0 , this time I left PEX 1.x folder and switched out the plugins boot up server and got this error.
