Server password bug

[Sanchez]

Hello. I have some problems with my server ("New Hope", Steam PZ Dedicated Server), server settings have no any server password, but when players try to connect, they see "Lock" symbol, and some of them can't connect because of "wrong server password given" issue.

We (server admins and players-testers) tried to solve it in diffirent ways:
-full wipe (map files, db, servertest.ini)
-AllowNonAsciiUsername=false/true
-our admins/tester removed all old multiplayer savegame folders.

But all metodes didn't work, "Lock" symbol didn't dissapear.

I tried to use this advice from EasyPickins

Can you put these into the zombie/core/raknet directory and see if it fixes it?

UdpEngine$1.class

UdpEngine.class

But it won't help either. I replaced files for Project Zomboid Dedicated Server folder.

There are some console reports:

Thanks Sanchez, for the v detailed report. I think the guys are looking into it atm

Should be able to fix it by restarting the server.  Try not to change any options while the server is running, otherwise, it'll need to be restarted again.

 

Now that we know what it is, we can patch it soon.  

[Sanchez]

That is great, we will waiting this fix tremendously.
Yes, server restart fixed this issue, but not for long. We noticed too that server options didn't save , our server were restarted 20+ times last 24 hours till we had catched "wrong server password" at wiped not modded server.

I have the same problem when I try to connect to my server, do you have any idea about that ?

New update is out. Please update to 40.31. It should have a fix for the /reloadoptions issue.

 

If you have any trouble starting up the client, be sure to delete the %UserProfile%\Zomboid\Lua\Players folder and the %UserProfile%\Zomboid\logs.zip file. Just doing some cleanup that -might- not have gone according to plan.

Ok this is ok, everythings works now ^^ insane ^^ Regards

I’m having trouble login into a server that I never changed the password to (it’s a public server) but it keeps saying wrong password even the the password has been saved correctly.

2 years later and I still have the same issue. Any fixes?
It still gives the password error even when inviting via Steam.

Thanks!

Having the same issue. Trying to join servers I've never been on before and it's saying I have the wrong username/password. Trying to join using a different name just says it doesn't recognize the name.
