Make sure everybody has a paid copy of the game.
Unless there was a server update... then you shouldnt have that issue.
I would look through there.

This is not a script issues
So I am currently hosting a Valheim server for friends via GCP. Late last night, we were encountering a very hard de-sync within the server (No one could interact with any objects), so we decided to restart the server.
Upon doing so, I also updated the Admin Menu, which pulled the version with the
advancemenu.sh
, and I decided to use that to restart the server.Now we aren't able to connect to the server due to the Incompatible Version error. I've tried updating the Server Client multiple times with both menu and advancemenu.
Did I do something wrong? The update function does say it is updated, but I'm not sure if it persists.
Any kind of help would be appreciated.

Exact same thing happened to me today with not interacting, using the dedicated server script to check for updates, restart service, got incompatible version error.
Does activating the menu with or without sudo matter if I'm a root user in Digital Ocean Ubuntu 20.04.2 droplet? Does touching any of the mod menu, even if I don't install mods matter?
### Are you using mods?
Check your logs
cat /var/log/syslog
and
journalctl --unit=valheimserver --reverse
Either your game client if off or your server client.
Activating the menu with root is okay. If you use sudo to activate the menu, that is okay as well.
Playing with the mod menu without mods is fine.
The only time the mod menu will make changes to your valheimserver.service is if you enable ValheimPlus. The the valheimserver.service will rewrite with the correct prams, update journal, restart services.
Normally, the incompatible version error is because the game client vs server is different.
If running mods: The game client has different mod version files or visa versa. ValheimPlus provides a option to not force mod compliance.
I havent had the change to play with mods or play the game very much because I have just been busy doing this.
I hope that helps you out.
Please let me know, if you need me to clarify anything else.
