Please give us the full stack trace

Please also give us your ranks.xml file, found in plugins/Cardinal

@iEli2tyree011 can an error in the rank.xml cause the plugin to not load?

[ghost]

apparently it can

[twizmwazin]

Let's keep this open, we can have the plugin use default ranks if the config file is invalid

@twizmwazin if there's an invalid ranks file it should use default, but keep the other one so it can be fixed, and tell the error in console (and maybe warn op's when they join)

[twizmwazin]

@Pablete1234 That is what I planned on having, although rather than having a chat message just spam the console on startup

[Pablete1234]

@twizmwazin if you have a hosted server, you often don't look at the console, and someone kinda non-experienced trying to setup a rank system may be like "why is it not working!?!?!?" but a chat message sent to op's when the join "This server has an unvalid ranks.xml file" would be enough, and maybe also for the rotation file

[twizmwazin]

I'd rather just use the console. If someone is having an issue, it is expected they check the console for any errors.

When theres an error on my version, theres no crashes, just loads the default ranks
