Failing to configure authentication mode

[Aquary]

Greetings!

I've downloaded Windows demo recently and have problems configuring user/server interaction.

1. Launch Client configuation, set up User/Password type of authentication, enter user "yura" and its password.

2. Launch Server configuation wizard, set up the same User/Password type of authentication.

3. Launch Users and Groups management, add user "yura".

4. Launch PlasticSCM.

I get the following error message:

"The client authentication mode (UPWorkingMode) doesn't match the server authentication mode (NameWorkingMode). Plastic can't continue and will be closed."

Looks like it didn't remember that server must run with UPWorkingMode just as client does.

"server.conf" has WorkingMode tag set to UPWorkingMode.

I also try set up Local user mode (NameWorkingMode) for both client and server, but it still fails:

"User unknown yura" while yura is my user's name on my PC.

I got WinXPPro and PlasticSCM v2.9.174.1 demo.

Do I misconfigurate something?

BRs,

Yury

It is necessary to restart the Plastic server when changing authmodes on the server side. It is not necessary to reboot the entire machine, just restarting the service will do:

Windows from a DOS Prompt:

net stop "plastic server"

net start "plastic server"

Or you can also do the same from the Services window.

Service restart that you've mentioned helped indeed.

Thank you!
