Troubleshooting

The problems server owners actually hit.

On this page

Check the server console first. Each card gives the symptom, the likely cause and the fix.

Startup

Console: AlphaFirstSpawn is disabled — this server is waiting for approval.
Cause
A new server starts as pending, and the plugin stays off until AlphaStudio approves it.
Fix
Send the server id from the next console line to AlphaStudio, then restart once it is approved. See Server approval.
Console warning about the spawn world not being loaded
Cause
spawn.world names a world that does not exist or is loaded later than this plugin, so the spawn is off for this run.
Fix
Correct the name, or load the world earlier. Run /asetspawnpoint inside the world to rewrite it.

Teleporting

New players are not teleported
Cause
spawn.enabled is false, you tested with an account that had already played, or another plugin moved the player after this one.
Fix
Run /asetspawnpoint, test with a fresh account, and check your hub or spawn plugins.
Returning players are not moved
Cause
That is by design. Only first joins are teleported.
Fix
Use a spawn or warp plugin for everyone else.

Changes not applying

I edited the file and nothing changed
Cause
There is no reload command. Files are read at startup.
Fix
Restart the server. Running /asetspawnpoint is the only change that applies immediately.
