Death chest not spawning on server

[starmarc]

So I died and I never spawned so I thought that I went some where so I went into spectator mode and didn’t find it so I died in lava with a seed and no death chest plz help

[TheRandomLabs]

Nothing in the log or in chat? The coordinates should be displayed.

[starmarc]

Nope nothing it just says I died

[TheRandomLabs]

Do death chests spawn at all? Or was it just this one instance?

[starmarc]

It was just this one instance

[TheRandomLabs]

Nothing was special about this one instance? Are you sure there wasn't an error or warning in the logs?

[starmarc]

No I fell from a tree and died

[starmarc]

It just said I died and that was it

[TheRandomLabs]

😕 Presumably, it's not your fault, but I don't have a lot of information to go off of.

[mikenlel]

I am also experiencing this problem. I am currently running All of Fabric 3 - 2.6.4. I made a server where I died to a mob but no chest spawned. I started experimenting and no matter how or where I died the chest would not spawn. To see if it was server-side, I made a single player world where I had the same problem.

[mikenlel]

Please let me know if I can provide any other information that would be useful!

Maybe reinstall it

[TheRandomLabs]

Alright, I'm back to marking the 2.0.0 rewrite as an alpha.

[TheRandomLabs]

I have no idea how to reproduce this, but can someone send me deathchests.dat in the data folder of a world that this is occurring in? It's possible that the placement is being queued, but something's causing the queued death chests to not be placed. If this is the case, the death chests would spawn once this issue is resolved.

I will

My friend confirmed that the same thing happens I'm his single player world. Is this a problem to post on a All the Fabric forum?

[TheRandomLabs]

I'm sincerely sorry that this is causing players to lose their items. 😕 I still have no idea what's causing this or whether it's a mod interaction or not, nor have I been able to reproduce this. I'm about to release 2.0.5, which among a couple of fixes, causes death chests to be logged when they are queued, and not just when they are placed. If anyone would like to test this, that'd be great, but you can go back to the latest release version for now if you want something that works for sure.

[mikenlel]

When I first installed the mod I would get disconnected when dying and the server would crash or something half of the time. I read online a fix that said to delete player data to fix this bug, and it worked. Is it possible this mod was causing that? Searched my minecraft server for deathchests.dat but got nothing :/

[TheRandomLabs]

It should be at <world directory>/data/deathchests.dat. There was a bug in an earlier alpha version that caused crashes on death (and I was glad I marked it alpha 😛).

[TheRandomLabs]

The fact that the dropped items are disappearing makes absolutely no sense to me, because the dropped item removal occurs here, and adding the death chest to the queue occurs literally 7 lines later here. As far as I can see, there's no way that the items could have been removed without a death chest being queued.

[mikenlel]

:/

[mikenlel]

same directory no file

[TheRandomLabs]

Can I have a log file? That is extremely strange.

[mikenlel]

uhhh sure let me try to download it, that happened to me on death

[TheRandomLabs]

Ah, that error was a conflict with Campanion. It should have been fixed in VDC 2.0.4.

[mikenlel]

uhhh do you have discord idk what kind of info is in the log, or is that all the info you needed

[TheRandomLabs]

I'm not sure I need the log in this case, as that error should have been fixed.

[TheRandomLabs]

Actually, can you confirm that you're on VanillaDeathChest 2.0.3?

[mikenlel]

where can i dm you

[mikenlel]

uhhh 1 sec

[mikenlel]

confirmed 👍

[TheRandomLabs]

Sick, that error should be fixed when you update to 2.0.5. 😄

[TheRandomLabs]

The other mystery still remains...

[mikenlel]

oh is 2.0.5 out or is that future?

[TheRandomLabs]

It's out.

[mikenlel]

How would I update my server? Would I download it from forge then copy and paste in the mod folder replacing the vanillachest mod? cuzzzz downloaded version: server version:

[TheRandomLabs]

If you'd like to help me test 2.0.5, then you'd download this, delete 2.0.3 in the server mods folder, then move the new one in. Also, you've downloaded the Forge version.

[mikenlel]

ohhhh okay because my client was also the same version just wasnt sure how to update it properly. sure ill test it rn

[TheRandomLabs]

The client version shouldn't matter. 😄

[mikenlel]

ohhh okay thank you

[mikenlel]

Success!! 👍 The new version fixed it for me, thank you for the help!

[TheRandomLabs]

Great, you're welcome! 😄
