Issue 2049: Plugin disappears after restart

Can not see the plugin after installing and using it before the restart.

1. Compiled replication plugin
2. Installed it by placing jar file into plugins directory
3. Ran a CLI command plugin ls and saw that it was enabled.
4. Ran a CLI command to test the replication
5. Saw in the error log that call was made to the remote repo but failed because of a URL naming error.
6. Fixed the error in etc/replication.config
7. Restarted the gerrit server
8. Could not find the plugin enabled using ssh * gerrit plugin ls


I thought I would see the plugin in the Web GUI or in the ssh * gerrit plugin ls

Which Gerrit version?

Is the problem repeatable?  Any error logs after restarting?

Does it happen if you use `gerrit plugin reload` command instead of restarting?

Gerrit 2.6

It looks like it was due to the config not defined properly. This just stopped the plugin in its tracks and wouldn't appear in the plugin page until I got it right.

It should have logged something if it failed to load the config.

Problem seems to be caused by invalid config.  Not further info from submitter, so closing.
