hello, I am having a problem with both mChat and OtherDrops plugins, that both fall back on their reliance on vault. the issue with otherdrops is it trying to use a money: drop, and failing to find vault.

and mChat just recently updated to using vault, and its groupnames and worldnames support is bound to something in vault, groups and worlds on my server are failing.

so, i figured i would report the issue here, in hopes that it is a known issue and has a fix. ive searched through the closed ticket list, and through devbukkit and i was unable to find others with the same issue reported right now.

no errors are showing up on the console past the issue with otherdrops 19:23:27 [WARNING] [OtherDrops:2.8b.566] Money drop has been configured but no economy plugin has been detected (have you installed Vault and a separate economy plugin?)

i use essentials economy and i am able to use the basic commands to see that econ by itself is still working. SignShop which also requires vault to process its transactions is working flawlessly.

this is the part that confuses me the most.

any help is greatly appreciated. thank you very much.

If OtherDrops is not hooking the economy, then it's an issue in OtherDrops. I don't see mChat hooking, what version are you using?

using http://dev.bukkit.org/bukkit-plugins/otherdrops/files/57-2-8b-573/

and mchat latest dev build in jenkins. i figured it was one of these two plugins, but with the dependency on Vault i figured i would bring the issue to you guys as well, on the chance that you may have had some kind of magic fix

and i tried the slightly older version of mchat and
16:40:52 [INFO] [MChat] Enabling MChat v1.5.1-R0.6-Unknown
16:40:52 [INFO] ?2[?4M?8Chat?2] ?6 Towny v0.84.0.0 hooked!.

16:40:52 [INFO] [MChat] MChat v1.5.1-R0.6-Unknown is enabled! [38ms]

so im very confused :( thanks for your help

seems like a problem with otherdrops.

yeah the first issue with otherdrops was that the build number of their jenkins build was behind that of their 1.6.1 dev bukkit release.

so i tried the 1.6.1 build, and got the same exact error. posted it on their ticket, was pretty sure it wasnt vault causing this. thanks for all your help. hope i can get the mchat issue figured out especially.

even after it shows that it hooks just fine upon startup, it still refuses to read the configs (even put it through the yml checker to be sure it wasnt user error)

its very odd, even mchat's /afk command is overriding permbukkit AND superperms. no matter how i block the commands usage in game, users can still use that command. its weird.
thanks again.

You're welcome, hopefully you can get this resolved!
