password change

by Switch5681 » Thu May 03, 2012 16:53

I originally started my server with a given user name and no password.
When I change my password with the setpassword command, it does not appear to work correctly for me.

I've tried logging in with both a blank password and with the new one entered with the command. Invalid password is returned for both attempts.
I've tried restarting the server.

I've gone into the auth.txt file and verified that the password was added and it is correct.

The only way I could log back in was to delete the password from the auth.txt file to return it to a blank value.

I haven't suffered that issue myself, but what dev version are you using?

I'm running 040812 on windows machines for my clients (tested on two machines) and on my Ubuntu 11.10 server I'm running the latest PPA build (compiled on 04/16).

I also had this same exact issue when I played 0.3 something for a bit in 2011. This is a totally different world, I re-downloaded everything new when I started playing again at the beginning of the month.
