ClanChest troubleshooting#

Use this page when ClanChest loads but a gameplay/admin workflow does not behave as expected. Start with the narrow symptom rather than changing multiple configuration sections at once.

Fast diagnostic order#

  1. Confirm the component loaded and its required Core version is compatible.
  2. Reproduce with a non-OP test account and verify the exact command/role permission.
  3. Check YAML syntax and the specific feature section involved.
  4. Verify optional providers (economy, map, hologram, entity, Redis, WorldGuard, etc.) only when that feature depends on them.
  5. Check persistent storage and cross-server synchronization after configuration/permission checks.
  6. Read the first component-specific console error produced during startup or reproduction.

Common symptoms#

SymptomLikely causesWhat to check / fix
A member can open a page but cannot remove itemsThe page is DEPOSIT_ONLY/LOCKED or the role does not meet the configured access ruleCheck the page mode and role requirement; test with leader versus ordinary member.
Items appear missing after changing GUI layoutStored item positions and GUI cosmetic layout were changed inconsistentlyRestore the page/storage layout from backup and change only documented cosmetic slots.
Two servers show different chest stateNodes use different storage, page configuration or synchronization stateVerify identical addon config, shared database where intended, and check locking/sync errors on both nodes.
Page purchase/unlock does nothingEconomy/unlock requirements or clan permissions are not satisfiedCheck economy provider, price/unlocker settings and the member role permission.

Configuration validation#

This component has little/no installed configuration in the supplied snapshot; use its source defaults and command feedback as the primary validation source.

Storage and restart checks#

  • Do not delete live storage as a first troubleshooting step. Make a backup and inspect it first.
  • If the issue appears only after restart, compare what is persisted with what is rebuilt in memory at startup.
  • If the issue appears only on one server in a network, compare the component version, config, database and sync channel on that server.
  • After a failed migration/recovery operation, keep the original data until the failure is understood.

What to include in a support ticket#

Provide the product/core version, component version, Minecraft/server implementation, the exact command/action used, the relevant config section, and the first related console error. Avoid sending passwords, database credentials, webhook secrets or API keys.

Diagnostic workflow#

Use this order before changing multiple settings at once:

  1. Startup: find the first warning/error mentioning this component; later exceptions are often consequences.
  2. Version/dependencies: verify the parent plugin version and every required/optional integration actually detected at startup.
  3. Configuration: validate YAML indentation/types and compare the relevant path with the default documented in this Wiki.
  4. Access: test both Bukkit permission and UltimateClans role/internal permission using a non-OP player.
  5. Context: reproduce in an allowed world/region and check claim/PvP/economy hooks if the feature depends on them.
  6. Persistence: restart and verify state is loaded from the intended YAML/SQLite/MySQL backend.
  7. Multiserver: reproduce on a single node first, then verify identical configs/storage/sync on all nodes.
  8. Isolation: disable unrelated integrations one at a time only when the evidence points to a hook conflict.

What to include when requesting support#

  • Exact plugin/core/component versions.
  • The command/action performed and expected result.
  • The first relevant console exception/warning, not only the last line.
  • The relevant configuration section with secrets removed.
  • Whether the problem reproduces with a non-OP player.
  • Server software/version and whether the server is part of a multiserver network.
