Unity MLAPI ServerRPC not getting called

I'm implementing a system in which a player can pickup an item from the game world. After picking the item up, I want to destroy the game object. To do this, I figured I'd make a ServerRPC that deletes the object, but the ServerRPC is not getting called. I tried making a ClientRPC as well, but that one isn't being called either. I noticed that it only gets called when the host of the game tries to pick up the item -- any ideas on how to fix this? The documentation is pretty bare but please let me know if I missed anything. Here is my code:

public override void Interact(GameObject player)
{
    player.GetComponent<PlayerInventory>().AddItem(this.item);
    Debug.Log("before");
    TestClientRpc();
    TestServerRpc();
}


[ServerRpc]
public void TestServerRpc()
{
    Debug.Log("server");
    // Destroy(gameObject);
}

[ClientRpc]
public void TestClientRpc()
{
    Debug.Log("client");
    // Destroy(gameObject);
}

EDIT: This class extends a class that extends the networkbehaviour class. The objects are just sitting in the scene at start -- they are not spawned/instantiated (not sure if that matters or not).

The most plausible solution to this problem , either it is running into a error in some previous lines or as some other person pointed out , requireOwnership is not set to false . For in depth analysis of MLAPI , https://youtube.com/channel/UCBStHvqSDEF751f0CWd3-Pg I found the tutorial series on this channel best

I have the same issue. Been looking at it for 2 days but I am inclined to think it is a bug to be honest.

I needed to add the following attribute to my ServerRpc:

[ServerRpc(RequireOwnership = false)]

since the player was not the owner of the item.

I just spent 4+ hours banging my head against the wall because they didn't write this important info in the documentation. When calling ServerRpc from a client that doesn't own the Network Object, RPC attribute should be set to RequireOwnership = false.

For me the issue was that the GameObject(with NetwrokObject component) was sitting in the scene before starting the game, I couldn't use NetworkVariables nor ServerRpc. I think those are only usable on spawned object, but not sure. So I would say : either instantiate the object and add it to the NetworkManager or use normal variable on those objects.
