[Help] Invalid Key


I see people still having problems, I guess, I also still saw a few servers with “invalid Key” on the fivem website server list.

I’m using a game host, i dont know if that matters, it did work when I first bought it. Not sure how long it hasn’t been coming up in the list, just noticed today.

I’ve tryed different keys, clean install/setup on my side. I’ve waited awhile, to see if it would come up, key should be good as I’ve tryed more than one. Config is good, true is enabled.

So when all that is right, what eles could be the reason?

Heres my config

# Don't change these settings here
endpoint_add_tcp "hey.99.147.hey:30138"
endpoint_add_udp "hey.99.147.hey:30138"

# Convar init
set es_enableCustomData 1
set mysql_connection_string "server=hey;database=db11008;userid=hey;password=hey"

# Mods\Resources can be added here:

sv_scriptHookAllowed 0

# This is your Rcon password, comment out to disable rcon
rcon_password hey

sv_hostname "GTA-5-RP.Com - Anyone can be COPS/EMS - Hiring All Positions - Join discord.gg/UHbrd2g"

# nested configs!
#exec server_internal.cfg

# loading a server icon (96x96 PNG file)
#load_server_icon myLogo.png

# convars for use from script
set temp_convar "hey world!"

# want to only allow players authenticated with a third-party provider like Steam?
#sv_authMaxVariance 1
#sv_authMinTrust 5

# add system admins
add_ace group.admin command allow # allow all commands
add_ace group.admin command.quit deny # but don't allow quit
add_principal identifier.steam:hey group.admin # add the admin to the group

# hide player endpoints in external log output
#sv_endpointprivacy true

# server slots limit (default to 30)
sv_maxclients 32

# license key for server (https://keymaster.fivem.net)
#sv_licensekey hey

Also, it doesn’t matter that my map is set to “freeroam” right? that prolly has nothing to do with invalid key? Just wonder because I’ve read every single post just about, before posting, and tryed to single out/narrow down everything.

Merry Xmas everyone!

What?! CitMP was deprecated months ago. Why the hell are you still using yml?

Wtf…
That file was for CitMP and doesn’t exist since the release of FX.

Also you didn’t added the Key to the config

And which one would that be?

license key for server (https://keymaster.fivem.net)

#sv_licensekey e11ndol5kkhkkhis

is this line wrong?

should it be like

license key for server (https://keymaster.fivem.net)

sv_licensekey e11ndol5kkhkkhis

or

license key for server (https://keymaster.fivem.net)

#sv_licensekey
e11ndol5kkhkkhisasdasdasd

set sv_licensekey "dfghfdghhgdf"

I have the same problem.
And all the solutions that I mentioned were useless
And I bought a Windows server because I thought the problem was on Linux
But no use.
What’s the solution?

update your server files, thats what fixed mine, good luck!

Do you have a link to the update you mean?
Because I downloaded the latest version of the server

So you’re running either:

Linux vs 446
or
Windows vs 490

And still get [INVALID KEY]?

The problem was, I was using the oldest version
And I didn’t notice that the newest version was down and not up
Linux vs 280
Thank you for your concern
