WorldEdit Version

WorldEdit-bukkit-7.3.0-SNAPSHOT-dist b5707 or b5708

Platform Version

3019-Spigot-bff5261-ee5006d (MC: 1.16.5)

Bug Description

WorldEdit triggers spectacular start-up failure on Spigot 1.16.5-3019. It loads fine on Paper 1.16.5-542. WE build 5705 loads fine. Basically, plugins that depend on WE fail, and server start-up fails overall.

Log available on request.

Expected Behavior

Not that. :)

Reproduction Steps

1. Update WE to b5707 (or b5708)
2. Start server

yea a log would be nice, otherwise I've got no clue what could be happening

AFK for a few hours, but will do.

yea can't repro on given versions.

I removed StayPut. Then the same sorts of errors were reported in Residence.
I removed Residence. Then the same sorts of errors were reported in BiomeFinder.
I removed BiomeFinder. Then the same sorts of errors were reported in Skript.
I could go on, but you get the idea.

If I revert to WE build 5705, with everything else back in place, there are no issues. Please help me understand.

I mean WE is doing nothing on the main thread at that point, it finishes startup looooong before the watchdog triggering in your logs.

after which the server is dead. Please let me know when you've got it, so I can delete it. And good hunting.

nl.zandervdm.stayput is blocking main thread with DB queries on startup. nothing to do with WE here.

Thanks. I appreciate that I'm seeing some sort of interaction effect. If I remove all plugins except WE, the server starts up. I will run more isolations.
