Yes, looks like `scrapyd-client` doesn't have something like `scrapyd-deploy`'s `_add_auth_header`.

Hmm, not sure if Windows uses a different signal, like `SIGBREAK`?

Is scrapyd running as root?

I share the concerns of @Digenis in https://github.com/scrapy/scrapyd/pull/321#issuecomment-485448325

Aha, this is caused by #161. I suppose the solution will be documentation.

@atranou Yes, this issue is still open. Thank you!

Should we add support for this `$VAR` syntax to scrapy.cfg, or instead just have environment variables be another way of specifying these values (at a higher priority than the file)?

@mxdev88 Sorry, I haven't had much time for my maintainer role, but this is on my list.

I can reproduce.
