OpenMod Common Errors & FAQ
Fast Answers with Diagnostic Context
GGU Public Technical Knowledge Base

Public Knowledge Base:
This article is written for both GGU administrators and the wider server-hosting community. General instructions are platform-neutral where possible; GGU-specific practices are identified separately.

 

Applies To

  • OpenMod server operators

 

Prerequisites

  • Basic console/log access

 

What You’ll Accomplish

Resolve common OpenMod administration problems and know when deeper troubleshooting is required.

 

Permission Changes Did Not Work

Check the role file/permission command, inheritance, explicit denies, and the exact permission string. The upstream docs state that `openmod.roles.yaml` changes are applied immediately.

 

Plugin Installed but Commands Are Missing

Confirm OpenMod was reloaded after installation, then inspect the plugin load logs for dependency or configuration errors.

 

A New Config Option Is Missing

OpenMod's docs warn that plugin config files are not automatically expanded when new fields are introduced. Compare against current defaults/documentation.

 

Plugin Update Broke the Server

Stop making unrelated changes, preserve the error, and evaluate rollback. Restore compatible configuration/data with the older binary if the update changed formats.

 

Can I Grant Everything with a Wildcard?

Technically broad grants may be possible depending on the permission store/plugin, but least privilege is safer and easier to review.

 

Where Should I Ask for Help?

Start with the plugin's authoritative documentation/repository and OpenMod's documentation. Provide logs, versions, the exact command/config involved, and what you already tested. Redact secrets.

 

GGU Implementation Notes

For GGU-developed plugins, the internal Gitea repository and deployment history should be checked in addition to the public KB. Public articles should never depend on access to GGU-private systems to be useful.
