Summary0007451: LAN claim_admin_rights password not recognized
DescriptionThe AdminPassword set in settings.dat is not being recognized when connecting to a server hosted on the same pc. ie I can connect to my own server and the "cmd:claim_admin_rights" will return "password not set" error in chat log. This makes server commands such as the new "set_worldwide_enchant_progress_sharing" useless.

Both "claim_admin_rights" and "set_worldwide_enchant_progress_sharing" seem to work as intended if used in singleplayer.

The singleplayer process uses settings.dat

The server process uses serversettings.dat

They used to just use the first file, but that led to some really, really, _nasty_ race conditions ;)

If you set the password in serversettings.dat does it work? I'll go check the wiki article on MP to make sure it's noting this point.

Thanks :)

Yeah, looks like that works. I overlooked the other files in the folder, definitely a user error.

Updating the wiki would help correct anymore confusion. Thanks for the help. :)
