Noteblocks not sending out redstone signals
I am currently helping out on a server were noteblocks seem to not emit redstone signals when triggered, any clue as to why that could be?

Note blocks emit signals?
People usually use an observer to detect it
I don’t think they’ve ever outputted a red stone signal
noteblocks dont emit redstone signals
like qarth said they only show to observers
My bad I worded it wrongly
They do not show up on observers
Like the don't get powered
At all
Weird.. are only note blocks having this issue?
Like are observers tracking other things?
They are tracking other things as far as I am aware tho I haven't tested every single block ofc
But like just placing a block infront of an observer works
U on modded or bukkit fork?
Sounds like u have some mod/plugin that modifies noteblocks
I’d try removing plugins/mods until u fine the culprit
!binary
Binary search your plugins
Remove half of your non-essential (ie not things like PAPI or LuckPerm) plugins and see if the problem is fixed.
If it still persists, the cause is in the half still installed.
Continue to halve the remaining plugins until you've narrowed it down to a single plugin.
Congratulations, you found the culprit.

We are not running any mods
And it's a paper server
Same goes for plugins
One of them be interfering
Yeah I am currently uninstalling plugins
Just tested all the plugins and it's not a plugin issue
So if u remove every single plugin. And are just running a regular paper server u still have this issue?
Do you have any datapacks installed?
Forgive my ignorance but I am not that experienced yet, what exactly is a datapack
Also I haven't tried removing stuff like luckperms yet
I can do that too if it'd help
Just remove all ur plugins. And test it
Okay will do
If ur the owner and don’t kno wat a datapack is then u don’t have any unless someone else has access to the server
Or if u bought/downloaded a prepackaged server
Datapacks are vanillas plugins
They work on vanilla servers
Where are they stored in console
I am not the owner
I am just trying to help a friend
how are you disabling plugins?
I am removing the jars
Like delete the jar, restart server, test it
Ok yeah delete them all
Does the issue still persist
Restarting rn
Give me like 30 sec
Data packs are stored in the datapacks folder, I think it’s in ur world file
Yep same issue without any plugins
I see one datapack installed
Should I try removing that next?
Sure
If that doesn’t fix it, then it’s probably either a config option, or some gamerule I’m not aware of
I see
Well fingers crossed this fixes it
Which config files should I check should it not fix it
Did the data pack fix it?
Nope
Ok then prob some config option
I’d just double check by creating a new server and validating on a fresh server what ur doing works
Then what u can do is on this new server is replace the configs 1 by 1
Until u figure out what config
configs meaning like server.properties
Bukkit.yml
spigot.yml
Paper configs etc
Also just make sure paper server is the latest jar
Updated paper and it didn't fix it, time to look through the configs
^
try this
Their server host doesn't have free servers
whats the server, u mind if i join and see it not working ?
play.dragonspinesmp.com
Whats your ign so I can whitelist you
qartho
Whitelisted you
hmm ok
def an issue
just tested on one of my servers and not a paper bug
ok if u go into
config/paper-world-defaults.yml
What is this set to
then go into that specific world
world/paper-world.yml
and look there too
actually
i think i might have found it
config/paper-global.yml
the first line at the top
im guessing yours is set to true?
Nope
set it to false
It already is
I double checked
hmm... what is ur redstone implementation set to?
Same file?
^
then each world will have overrides
^
What exactly am I looking for
^
this
its line 283 for me
Alternate current
ok go check the world now
make sure its not being overridden
im also using alternate current, and having no issues
Nothing about redstone in paper-global
Is only is paper world defaults
yeah i never said
it was in global
Oh my bad
go to the world file
theres a paper-world.yml
in each world
Nothing about redstone in there
idk... then
Rip
so you removed every single plugin and datapack from the server
and it still
happened?
like u loggeed in typed /pl and it said 0
I deleted the entire plugins folder
And it still didn't work
and the datapack too?
I didn't test them both at the same time yet give me a sec
Yep
No plugins
No datapacks
Same issue
ok. all of the config files
like all of them
Actually I might have found something
oh?
A datapack autogenerated on startup
interesting.
what datapack?
Folder is bukkit
Datapack is just called pack.mcmeta
oh well i think
that is normal
for bukkit servers
I see
ok next step
keep all plugins
and datapacks out
all the config files
including server.properties
move them to a dummy test folder
then start the server... (just so its only the jar and the start script)
then test it
if its STILL an issue... then well... redownload ur server jar. u prob got a corrupted one
Just double checking that I understood properly, in my root folder I remove all config files other than the paper.jar yes?
yeah just remove everything
so its legit
just the server jar
and startup script if needed
can keep
world files
What about the configs in the configs folder
yup
everything
Oh I just noticed something
Remember how earlier I replaced the paper jar with an updated one
Somehow the old one reappeared
stop server
delete old jar
put new jar
rename new jar to same as old one
start server
It works now
Omg
Now to test it with plugins
well
wait
dont do that
we gotta figure out which config file
is brreaking it
and will need to restart alot
and u dont wanna wait everytime
to load 50+ plugins
Oh oop
Okay I removed the plugins again
Odd thing tho
When I started with the plugins it was broken again
Now without plugins it works again
Okay so what is the next step
put back
each config
1 at a time
so like
replace server.properties
restart
still work?
stop
replace bukkit.yml
restart
still work?
so on and so on
ur replacing the fresh config with the one u previously removed
since u and the owner probably had some specific settings tweaked in them for ur server
I see
Any clue as to how reinstalling the plugins without the server configs broke it again tho
prob multiple things breaking it
a plugin + config
I see
All configs restored and it's still working
What's next
weird...
so it was a plugin
u sure u tested with all plugins removed?
Yep
doesnt make sense
Maybe I just misremember
yeah idk
ok well just had half ur plugins in
see if it works
if it broken
remove half of those
if it still works
add half of the remaining half
