⚠️Troubleshooting

This guide helps resolve common issues with the DevHub Laptop script based on configuration and setup.

First Steps:

1. Ensure you have devhub_lib installed and configured.

2. Make a fresh resintall of a script and devhub_lib

3. Make sure you havent changed resource name

4. Make full server restart

Resource Not Starting

Check FiveM Manifest

Problem: Resource fails to start or shows errors in console.

Solution:

1. Ensure the resource name in server.cfg matches the folder name:

   ensure devhub_laptop

2. Check that all required files are present:

   • fxmanifest.lua

   • configs/ folder with all config files

   • escrowed/ folder with Lua scripts

   • html/ folder with compiled NUI files

Check File Permissions

Problem: Resource fails to load files or access data.

Solution:

1. Ensure the resource folder has proper read permissions

2. On Linux, verify ownership and permissions:

   chown -R fivem:fivem /path/to/devhub_laptop
   chmod -R 755 /path/to/devhub_laptop

3. Check that escrowed files are not corrupted

Database Issues

SQL Tables Not Created

Problem: Players cannot save data, getting database errors.

Solution:

1. Import the sql.sql file into your database

2. Verify tables exist by running:

   SHOW TABLES LIKE 'devhub_laptop%';

3. Expected tables should include:

   • User profile tables

   • App data tables

   • Crime Traders tables (if using premium app)

4. If tables don't exist, manually execute the SQL file

Images or Assets Not Loading

Problem: UI loads but images are missing or broken.

Solution:

1. Verify image paths in config files use correct format:

   -- Correct format for local resources:
   "https://cfx-nui-devhub_laptop/html/images/apps/calculator.png"

2. Check that files exist in html/images/ folder

3. Verify file extensions match exactly (case-sensitive)

4. Clear FiveM cache and restart

Configuration Errors

Lua Syntax Errors

Problem: Script fails to start with Lua syntax errors in console.

Solution:

1. Check all config files for syntax errors:

   • Missing commas in tables

   • Mismatched brackets {}, []

   • Unclosed strings ""

2. Common mistakes:

   -- WRONG: Missing comma
   Config.Apps = {
       ['calculator'] = { label = "Calculator" }
       ['notepad'] = { label = "Notepad" }
   }
   
   -- CORRECT:
   Config.Apps = {
       ['calculator'] = { label = "Calculator" },
       ['notepad'] = { label = "Notepad" },
   }

3. Use a Lua validator or IDE with syntax checking

4. Check for invalid characters or encoding issues

---

Development Issues

Configuration Not Taking Effect

Problem: Changes to config files don't appear in-game.

Solution:

1. Ensure you saved the config file after editing

2. Restart the resource:

   restart devhub_laptop

3. If still not working, restart the entire server

4. Check server console for Lua syntax errors

5. Verify you edited the correct config file in configs/ folder

---

Advanced Troubleshooting

Enable Debug Mode

To get detailed error information:

1. Enable debug mode in config:

   Config.Debug = true

2. Check server console for debug messages

3. Open browser console NUI errors

4. Monitor network tab for failed requests

Check Resource Order

Ensure proper resource start order in server.cfg:

ensure devhub_lib              # Required dependency
ensure devhub_laptop           # This resource

Clear Cache

If experiencing persistent issues:

1. Clear FiveM cache:

   • Close FiveM

   • Delete cache folder in FiveM application data

   • Restart FiveM

2. Restart server and resource

Database Verification

Check database integrity:

-- Verify tables exist
SHOW TABLES LIKE 'devhub_laptop%';

-- Check for corrupt data
SELECT * FROM devhub_laptop_users WHERE data IS NULL;

-- Verify relationships
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM devhub_laptop_notes;
