PacketAdapter

[Kai-Denzel-Jane]

Make sure you're doing the following

• [Y] You're using the latest build for your server version
• [~] This isn't an issue caused by another plugin
• [Y] You've checked for duplicate issues
• [Y] You didn't use /reload

Describe the question
Why am I getting the following error when I have ProtocolLib in the Projects dependencies and the JAR file is in the plugins folder:

API method(s) used
PacketAdapter

Expected behavior
My plugin sees ProtocolLib and its classes resulting in it not failing to enable the plugin

Aren't you shading ProtocolLib?

Sorry about that its now public forget making repos from IntelliJ are Private by default

[Runkang10]

Set ProtocolLib as compileOnly dependency.

[Runkang10]

repositories {
    maven { url "https://repo.dmulloy2.net/repository/public/" }
}

dependencies {
    compileOnly 'com.comphenix.protocol:ProtocolLib:5.1.0'
}

[MarkManFlame55]

its happening the same for me with every packet listener. NoClassDefFound and my plugin gets unloaded. I have ProtoclLib as a Dependency on my build.gradle and installed on my server, and it keeps throwing me that exception.

[Runkang10]

Also check if ProtocolLib supports the current server version that you're using.
