So I have been running Precious Stones on my server for quite some time. However when I installed the bukkit 1.3 update for craftbukkit, they stopped working. Well, they are still doing what placed fields should, but users can no longer place new fields. I have gone as far as to create a completely new server on another computer with a blank world granting permissions only to preciousstones.* and users still cannot place. The only way I can get something to place, is to make them OP.

CraftBukkit-b2340 (1.3.1 r2)
PreciousStones 9.4

Here is a copy of my current permissions file, trimmed to nearly nothing for testing this:
[code]
users:
gubid:
groups:
- default
groups:
default:
permissions:
permissions.: true
preciousstones.: true
messages:
build: '&cYou do not have permission to build here.'
[/code]

My PS config is the default config when no cfg exist. However I still cannot place. Any help would be appreciated!

Btw, I also set this up using PEX (which I used for permissions previously) but I encounter the same thing.

I use PEX and remember having odd issues a while back, not with users not being able to do stuff, but with users being able to do stuff they shouldn't be able to.

As you can tell many of the perms below are pretty much the same "preciousstones.benefit.*" & "preciousstones.benefit.use" but PEX wasn't properly utilizing the wildcard so I had to add some perms individually.

here is a list of all my default groups perms
preciousstones.benefit.* world_nether
preciousstones.benefit.* world
preciousstones.benefit.* altworld
preciousstones.benefit.* altworld_nether
preciousstones.benefit.* altworld_the_end
preciousstones.benefit.* altworld_pocket
preciousstones.benefit.* altworld_pocket
preciousstones.benefit.bounce world
preciousstones.benefit.bounce altworld
preciousstones.benefit.create.forcefield world
preciousstones.benefit.create.forcefield altworld
preciousstones.benefit.create.protection world
preciousstones.benefit.create.protection altworld
preciousstones.benefit.create.unbreakable world
preciousstones.benefit.create.unbreakable altworld
preciousstones.benefit.giveair world
preciousstones.benefit.giveair altworld
preciousstones.benefit.heal world
preciousstones.benefit.heal altworld
preciousstones.benefit.launch world
preciousstones.benefit.launch altworld
preciousstones.benefit.mark world
preciousstones.benefit.mark altworld
preciousstones.benefit.onoff world
preciousstones.benefit.onoff altworld
preciousstones.benefit.setheight world
preciousstones.benefit.setheight altworld
preciousstones.benefit.setname world
preciousstones.benefit.setname altworld
preciousstones.benefit.visualize

I have gone back and applied the permissions individually but I am still unable to place unless an OP.

Keep in mind that when I use the base 'permissions bukkit' I see the same problem, on a fresh server. As in I literally downloaded a new version of bukkit and precious-stones, then started a server (brand new) setup a single group with full permissions. Granted with wild cards and manually by node, but still no dice.

Could be a problem between the new versions of bukkit and permission plugins http://forums.bukkit.org/threads/permissions-faq.25080/page-12#post-1106079

Ok, so yesterday removed all config files for my plugins and it seems to be working now. I havent found what the setting is that was triggering it to not work yet, but for now I am working again. Sorry to trouble you.
