Ok, figured out. It doesn't like character sequnce

$(

in rcon_password

[h3o66]

you can probably use this if you put this in single quotes like this:

variable='a$(b'

[dragokas]

Not agree it is solved. It's better to insert somewhere a meaningful message saying that it is forbidden to use $( sequence in the password instead of throwing a syntax error.

[h3o66]

well, this is a standard open sequence for a subprocess in bash.

Did you at least check my comment ?
That works for me to have a $( in the variable

I do only see a way to stop lgsm when it detects a not "working" config.
To check for the string might not be not be the best idea, better only validate the read of the configs.

I'm not the only one. Other people may also suffer similar issue. Fix should go to master branch, not to my own local script. However, you closed this issue.
