Sunshine won't accept the username/password I set and reset methods do not work
I tried setting up Sunshine last night and hit a brick wall after setting the username and password and it refuses to take them. I was 99% sure I typed everything they way I had intended. Just keeps reloading the login prompt.
So I accepted that I may have fat fingered something when putting the password in. I tried opening Sunshine with the command line argument on the git hub issues page that someone said to make it force a new password. That did not work. It doesn't ask to set the password again it just comes to the login prompt again.
I tried deleting the config file that same post said you could also delete, and same issue it doesn't actually make it prompt for new password. It just keeps coming up asking me to login same as before. You can actually see in the status/command window that Sunshine is running in where it acknowledges that file is missing so you would think that would mean it would for sure make me set up creds again, but you would be mistaken!
I think I'm just going to need to wait for Sunshine to become as easy to use as GFE.
EDIT: To be clear here is what I was trying to use to reset the creds....
"If you already closed the first time Sunshine you can delete sunshine_state.json (but this also removes all your paired clients) or you can run Sunshine with sunshine --creds new_username new_password to set a new pair of credentials"
From this link https://github.com/loki-47-6F-64/sunshine/issues/130
In case you still haven't figured it out, or for anyone having the same issue who finds this post, this is what worked for me.
Exit all instances of Sunshine.
In command prompt:
exit cmd
run Sunshine
The new credentials should work.
ETA: From u/hack-slash
Thanks man, that worked really well! Don't forget to run CMD with administrator rights and remove the [ ]
Adding to this - don't use symbols in your password. Changing the password errors out with 'System cannot find the file specified' if symbols are used. Generating a random number and letter password of 16 chars worked fine for me.
Command that u/chickenf_cker niga gave worked;
In command prompt:
But what every mfing niga here didn't mentioned was
Closing all sunshine processes in task manager
Running cmd as an administrator
Passwords above 8 characters works (I don't fcking know what the exact number is, but for me, 4 characters didn't work and 8 characters worked and I don't have a fcking time to find out exact numbers
Moral: Half knowledge is dangerous, but half knowledge givers, mfs makes you works twice or quadro or something.
Just noticed the same. Changed the credentials the same way and it told me that they had been created, though I can't login with them.
Same error here.
I'll mention that in this tutorial video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wb8j8Ojd4YQ) when the exe file completes to show "Info: Registered Sunshine...", his screen shows an additional line of what appears to be "Error: Unknown status", and that additional lines show when he goes to the localhost page and after he submits his username and password. None of those lines after the "Info: Registered..." show for me in those steps that I take. This is after uninstalling and reinstalling to ensure I typed in the correct username and password.
Maybe later releases don't include them, but if that's something that also doesn't show for you all, hopefully we've run into the same problem.
Thank you soo much!! This worked!! Bless you!
Don't have one
I'm begging you don't use this casino they will rob you from your money you will try to withdraw it and they will pull stuff out of their butt. They will never give you the money you promised the money you've worked on. They will deflect and cause you to waste time and energy. I play a lot of casinos I win a lot of money this casino is one of those bad ones. The chat people tell you one thing and then the next one tells you something totally different. They make things up off the cuff. Then their verification people send you emails telling you one thing and then you wait on your withdrawal and it is literally less than 1/4 of what it was you won. I am a habitual player. I know the ins and outs of at least 15 of these online casinos. This is by far the worst experience I've ever had with one. They will cut you off when you're done talking to you and just tell you that that's what it's going to be and you have no choice but to accept it. They will make things up different from day to day. I'm telling you. Google online casinos and stay away from sunshine. They are scammers. Thank you Cindy Roberts
Uhhh what? This is a post about the Sunshine streaming client.....not a casino.
Everything okay?
