server.send not functioning

Server.send('command') not functioning.

there's no more to say here, it just isn't doing anything.

Same issue here, this seems to be a problem with Rcon.

While waiting for a fix, another way to send commands is to send them directly to the input stream of the server process :

// Instead of 
server.send("say hi");
// Use this
server.spawn.stdin.write("say hi\n");

Notice the newline character that is needed for the server to register and process the input.

I found what was at fault for me. Make sure that the server is setup correctly to allow RCON. For example, if you were to create your server object like so

const server = new ScriptServer({
    core: {
        jar: "server.jar",
        args: [
            "-Xmx2G"
        ],
        rcon: {
            port: "25575",
            password: "0000"
        }
    }
});

Then the server's server.properties file needs to have these lines

enable-rcon=true
rcon.port=25575
rcon.password=0000

It seems that newer versions of the server jar (in my case snapshot 18w19a) don't automatically generate those lines.

Thanks!

Sorry for the trouble! I seem to have completely forgot to document the requirement to enable RCON in your server.properties. I will leave this ticket open until I am able to do so.
