[BUG] Plugin does not load on server startup, but can be manually loaded in.

[UPSOKen]

Describe the bug Whenever the server starts, it says Voterewards loads, but it appears as red in the /pl list. However, If I manually use pluginmanager to load the plugin, it loads into the server just fine, and appears green in /pl until next restart.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior: Start the server.

Expected behavior Should start at startup.

Do you have any errors in the Console when the plugin tries to load up ?

[UPSOKen]

I didn't receive any errors upon loading it. That's why it's confusing me, and it works absolutely fine once I manually load it in.

I finally got an error log on startup:

I use VotifierPlus [https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/votifierplus.74040/] - which works fine once I manually load the plugin, but VoteRewards doesn't like it.

[GeorgeV220]

Do you have (Nu)Votifier installed ?

[UPSOKen]

installed ?

No, I use the fork that I linked called VotifierPlus.

It should function exactly the same. In fact, it does - once I manually load the plug-in, but for some reason it won't load on startup.

This seems like something simple, like maybe a dependency list.

[GeorgeV220]

ahh, I need to add support for the plugin. I will update it.

[GeorgeV220]

Can I send you a test jar ? @UPSOKen

Can I send you a test jar ? @UPSOKen

Sure! At work currently - but will test later tonight.

This appears to work fine for me! I ran it on a clone test server, and it worked. Going to add it to my production server, it restarts tomorrow at 2 am, so if I run into any issues, I will let you know.

Should I close this issue?
