The server console is the first place to look when something is wrong. This page lists the messages Element Labs products print, and where each one leads. ## Contract Messages have a fixed shape: ```text theme={null} [WARN ] [ Config] Config file for "controls" missing or invalid. ``` | Part | Meaning | | -------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | | `[WARN ]` | The level. One of `INFO`, `WARN`, `ERROR`, `DEBUG`. | | `[ Config]` | The channel: the part of the product the message came from. Padded to a fixed width. | | The rest | The message. | Levels mean what they say: `INFO` records something that happened, `WARN` reports something that may need attention, `ERROR` reports something that went wrong. `DEBUG` is diagnostic detail and is hidden unless you enable it. See [Server settings](/sdk/server-settings). Messages naming a product resource, such as `element_map`, come from that product. Everything else comes from the shared behaviour and applies to every product. ## Inputs The channels you can see without enabling debug output: | Channel | Covers | | -------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `Dependencies` | Whether the SDK is present, running and a version the product accepts. | | `Config` | Reading and converting the files in `configs`. | | `Locales` | Reading the files in `locales`. | | `VersionCheck` | Comparing your installed versions against published releases. | | `Keybinds` | Registering keys a player can rebind. | ## Outputs Messages that record normal operation. No action needed. | Message | Meaning | | ---------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `[] migrated config v1 → v2.` | A configuration file you restored from an earlier release was converted to the shape this release expects. The file on disk is unchanged. | ## Errors ### Start-up is blocked Each of these stops the product before it does anything. | Message | Cause | Fix | | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `Missing dependency 'element_sdk' (requires ).` | The SDK is not installed, or the server does not know about it. | Install it, and add it to `server.cfg` before the product. [Install a product](/getting-started/installation) | | `Dependency 'element_sdk' is not started (state '', requires ).` | The SDK is installed but not running: it failed to start, or it was stopped. | Look further up the console for the SDK's own failure. | | `'element_sdk' v does not satisfy required version .` | The installed SDK is outside the range this product accepts. | Update the SDK. [SDK version requirements](/sdk/compatibility) | | `Declared requirement '' for '' is not a readable version constraint.` | The requirement in the product's own `fxmanifest.lua` cannot be read: the file was edited, or the product was copied incompletely. | Reinstall the product from the release. [SDK version requirements](/sdk/compatibility) | | `[Sdk] Resource dependencies are not satisfied for ''.` | Follows any of the four above, naming the product that stopped. | Fix the line above it. | | `No supported Framework adapter detected. Checked: [es_extended, qb-core, qbx_core]` | The product needs a framework and none is running. The same shape appears for inventories, databases, menus and text input. A server capability stops the resource; a client one reports in the player's own console and the product keeps running. | Install one of the listed resources and start it before the product. [Supported server resources](/sdk/supported-resources) | | `'' is unavailable for the rest of this session; …` | Follows the line above on the client, where a resource cannot stop itself. | Same fix. [Supported server resources](/sdk/supported-resources) | | `The declared Framework adapter in "" is missing: []. A declared adapter must implement the whole contract.` | A resource declared `element_adapter ''` in its `fxmanifest.lua`, but its `elementAdapter` export returned a table that does not implement every method of the contract. | Implement the methods the message names in that resource. [A provider of your own](/sdk/custom-provider) | | `Resource "" declares "" but does not export "elementAdapter".` | The manifest declares an adapter, but the resource never registers the `elementAdapter` export. | Add the export to that resource's Lua. [A provider of your own](/sdk/custom-provider) | | `Resource "" returned nothing from "elementAdapter" for "".` | The export exists but returned nothing for that capability, usually a branch on the capability name that did not match. | Make the export return the implementation for the capability the manifest declares. [A provider of your own](/sdk/custom-provider) | ### Start-up continues, but something is wrong | Message | Cause | Fix | | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `Config file for "" missing or invalid.` | That configuration file cannot be read. Every setting in it falls back to the value the release shipped. | Correct the syntax, usually a trailing comma or a missing bracket. [Configuration changes have no effect](/support/configuration-not-applied) | | `Config file for "" declares scope "" but the release owns it as ""; the scope cannot be changed by editing the file.` | `scope` was edited. It records which side owns the namespace; it does not decide it, so nothing moved. | Put `scope` back as shipped. [Configuration](/sdk/configuration) | | `Config file for "" declares namespace ""; the filename decides the namespace.` | `namespace` was edited, or the file was renamed and the field was not. | Make the field match the filename. [Configuration](/sdk/configuration) | | `[] missing migration step from v1 → v2; falling back to defaults.` | A configuration file from an earlier release could not be converted. The release defaults are in use. | Rewrite your settings against the current file. [Update a product or the SDK](/getting-started/updating) | | `[] migration step v1 → v2 threw; falling back to defaults.` | The conversion was attempted and failed. The release defaults are in use. | As above. Report it if it repeats. [Getting help](/support/contact) | | `[] config file from newer version (3 > 2); some keys may be ignored.` | Your configuration file comes from a newer release than the product reading it. | Roll the configuration back to match the product, or update the product. | | `Locale file for "" is missing or invalid.` | That language file is absent or cannot be read. Every piece of text falls back to the fallback language. | Check the file exists in `locales` and parses. [Text is wrong or missing](/support/text-is-wrong-or-missing) | | `Cannot determine version of 'element_sdk' (requires ).` | The SDK is running but its version cannot be read, usually an incomplete copy. | Reinstall the SDK. | | `Release catalog request failed with status .` | The update check could not reach the release catalogue. Status `0` usually means the request never left the machine. | Nothing is broken. Turn the check off if your server has no outbound access. [Server settings](/sdk/server-settings) | | `Release catalog response is invalid.` | The catalogue was reached but could not be read. | Nothing is broken. It is retried at the next start. | | ` is outdated: v installed, v available.` | A newer release exists. | Informational. [Update a product or the SDK](/getting-started/updating) | | `Skipped "", keybinds are unsupported on RedM.` | A product that registers a key was started on a RedM server. Element Labs products are built for FiveM. | Not supported. [Server requirements](/getting-started/requirements) | | `"" is already registered, returning existing binding.` | Two keys were registered under the same name, usually a product restarted while its client was connected, or two resources chose the same name. The key registered first keeps working; the second registration is ignored. It appears in the player's own console, not the server's. | Nothing to do if the key responds. If it triggers the wrong action, the two resources chose the same name and one of them has to change it. | ### Messages from Element 3D Map | Message | Cause | Fix | | ------------------------------------------------------------ | -------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `[Map] Blip coordinates require numeric x and y components.` | Another resource asked the map to add a marker without usable coordinates. | The calling resource is at fault. [Exports](/products/map/reference/exports) | ## Example A complete failed start, read from the top: ```text theme={null} [ERROR] [Dependencies] 'element_sdk' v0.1.0-alpha.1 does not satisfy required version ^0.1.0-alpha.3. [Sdk] Resource dependencies are not satisfied for 'element_map'. ``` The first line is the cause and the second names the resource that stopped. Always act on the highest line: the ones below it are usually consequences. ## Related * [Diagnosing a problem](/support/index) * [Server settings](/sdk/server-settings) * [Getting help](/support/contact)
