Also add what you already tried so far.
Changing some stuff with essentialmode (I thought maybe a SQL connection error)

Also it says failed to load __resource.lua but its a fxmanifest.lua

For starters, fxmanifest.lua is basically a newer version of __resource.lua.

I would try the following:

  • check if you have only 1 esx_policejob script, because you might have 2 and FiveM goes crazy
  • turn off the server, remove all esx_policejob you can find, add it again, start the server
  • try to use the latest artefacts for the server (update the server)

didnt work, what I noticed is that it refuses to load any script that has a fxmanifest.lua because if I stop one resource it is having problems with then it gives another error to another script that doesnt have a __resource.lua

Read the message above for my response

You definitely have to update your server files, cause it seems like your server is not recognizing fxmanifest.lua files.

what would I update? and where would I find the stuff to replace?

The advice given above isn’t great. The error clearly states it can’t LOAD the file nothing about recognising it.

You likely have formatting error in the fxmanifest, most common issue is missing or extra commas.

fxmanifest.lua (748 Bytes)

maybe u could check it out and let me know if something is wrong
