Today I updated the GeyserMC plugin for my server but the server failed to load it. This error message popped out instead:
Could not load 'plugins/Geyser-Spigot.jar' in folder 'plugins' org.bukkit.plugin.InvalidDescriptionException: Invalid plugin.yml
I tried reinstalling the plugin, yet it failed.
Then, I went and contacted GeyserMC support, they replied:
Quote from GeyserMC SupportDisplay MoreWeird that it errors on plugin.yml
That usually happens if you use the wrong Geyser version
My guess is that Geyser could've corrupted during downloading or uploading if you're using a hosting service
Try downloading it once again
After that, I hosted my own PaperMC server with GeyserMC on my laptop. Turns out it worked flawlessly. So, it isn't an issue with the plugin GeyserMC provided. I then found out through the Discord server that many of us are also getting the same issue. So conclusion, it's an issue with the plugin provided by Aternos
.
Right now, we can only install the latest GeyserMC plugin whether it's corrupted or not. Thus, I hope that there we are able to install previous versions of GeyserMC so that we won't need to wait till the next update for it to be fixed.
