Remie Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 (edited) Hi, Because of a bug in palword dedicated server whenever you change the running user the player GUID will get messed up. I'm moving the server from application to TCadmin. Therefore the server will be run as TCAgame, I don't want this because this messes up the GUID of my players which are forced to start over again. Whenever I change the credentials in the game service config it won't save and will default back to TCAgame. How can I change the gameconfig to run under "administrator"? After I press save it defaults back to TCAgame Edited February 10 by Remie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Remie Posted February 10 Author Share Posted February 10 (edited) I'm a bit further now. The pop-up for a missing steam API key was preventing the new user account to save. This has been changed now and now the service fails to start using the administrator user. 02/10/2024 12:14:42 System.ServiceProcess System.InvalidOperationException: Cannot start service administrator on computer '.'. ---> System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception: The service did not start due to a logon failure --- End of inner exception stack trace --- at System.ServiceProcess.ServiceController.Start(String[] args) at TCAdmin.ServiceManLib.ServiceManager.a(ProcessController a, Int32 b, String c, String d) at TCAdmin.ServiceManLib.ServiceManager.GetServiceLauncherProxy(ProcessController sender, String user, Int32 serviceId, Boolean forServiceStart) at TCAdmin.ServiceManLib.WindowsProcessController.a() 02/10/2024 12:18:23 System.ServiceProcess System.InvalidOperationException: Cannot start service administrator on computer '.'. ---> System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception: The service did not start due to a logon failure --- End of inner exception stack trace --- at System.ServiceProcess.ServiceController.Start(String[] args) at TCAdmin.ServiceManLib.ServiceManager.a(ProcessController a, Int32 b, String c, String d) at TCAdmin.ServiceManLib.ServiceManager.GetServiceLauncherProxy(ProcessController sender, String user, Int32 serviceId, Boolean forServiceStart) at TCAdmin.ServiceManLib.WindowsProcessController.a() 02/10/2024 12:14:36 Uninstalling invaid launcher for administrator... 02/10/2024 12:14:42 Uninstalled invaid launcher for administrator 02/10/2024 12:18:17 Uninstalling invaid launcher for administrator... 02/10/2024 12:18:23 Uninstalled invaid launcher for administrator I'm 100% sure the password is correct.

Remie Posted February 12 Author Share Posted February 12 (edited) 5 hours ago, Dennis said: Are you sure the login information for the administrator user is correct? Yes it was correct. I think I've solved it by running the launcher installer in an elevated prompt as user "administrator". After that everything worked as expected Edited February 12 by Remie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
