Common issues

This comprehensive guide covers common problems across all Lith Studios scripts with proven solutions.

Script Errors on Startup

Most of errors on startup are caused by FileZilla. Use WinSCP instead.

Error parsing script / Failed to load script Error parsing script @...lua in resource ...: @...lua:1: syntax error near '<\1>'

Your server artifacts are likely outdated. Update your server. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aXCgN07a-yY). Do not use FileZilla. Use WinSCP for transfering resource files.

You lack the required entitlement to use <resource>

Try restarting your server and make sure your server license key is correct. If you bought the resource on the wrong account, you can transfer it to another account on CFX portal.

Failed to verify protected resource

Files were possibly corrupted during transfer. Ensure hidden files are copied; the .fxap file in a protected resource must be included. Some FTP programs skip these files.

Database Issues

Table 'table_name" doesn't exist

Some scripts come with a .sql file, make sure to run this file in your database manager, like HeidiSQL. After running the .sql file, the database table will be added to your database. Make sure to restart the server for the table to be loaded in.
