Dedicated server FS19 login problem

[Deridexki]

Hi,

just installed my dedicated server (like i did with the FS17 version).
however when i try to login it always says: username or password incorrect.

nothing has changed in the config xml, i just use "admin" and the initial_admin password...

Any help ?

Are you using the password provided in the xml file?

dedicatedServer.xml

I am having the same issue if you are.

Try to change te admin name an password into something easy, like with only small letters in notepad++ and save. Then try to run It again.

used the intitial admin / password from the xml file.

changed username and password into somthing simple. still the same, username or password incorrect...

i found the problem.

you must run the dedicatedserver.exe as administrator.
upon startup it writes a new password in the dedicatedserver.xml

using the newly written password works fine for login.
