Could not load during server start

I've been using FastLeafDecay for years! Running 1.17.1 on paper. I just updated to lastest release and now get this on server start:

[15:27:25] [Server thread/ERROR]: Could not load 'plugins/FastLeafDecay-26.jar' in folder 'plugins'

Hey Jasminnancy, thanks for reporting this.

If I read this log correctly, it looks like you're using bukkit. FastLeafDecay is a Forge plugin, does Bukkit run those? :$ I'm not very well versed in other loaders so I'm not sure.

I get the same issue... i guess this plugin no longer works for paper.

As i said in the previous comment, this is a forge mod, not a plugin for paper or bukkit. I'm surprised it worked at all...
