Update: has been fixed thanks to Pelayori!
Needed to add this to the top of the ArkShop config.json:
"Mysql":{
"UseMysql":false,
"MysqlHost":"localhost",
"MysqlUser":"root",
"MysqlPass":"1234",
"MysqlDB":"arkdb"
},
In order for it to stop crashing my server I just had to do a clean install of the plugin, including the default config without any of must customizations. I have not fixed 1114 myself, but I suggest searching for any missing brackets or missing ' in your config.json in the mean time.
I really appreciate that, FireSauce. I've contacted another developer on discord who seems to be knowledgeable with the plugin - hopefully I can get a reply.
Thanks for the help, but I should have mentioned I am already aware that it is just ArkShop causing this problem. The problem is most certainly in the config.ini, it's just I cannot pinpoint where, which is why I am asking for a second opinion on it.
I suspect it's a syntax error, but I've ran it through JSONLint already; no errors appeared.
Anyone have an ideas? I've also checked all blueprint paths and they seem OK.
