Troubleshooting Installation Issues

The error you’re encountering is due to a problem in the auto-installation process. To resolve it, you’ll need to manually modify two files: es_extended/server/common.lua and esx_addonaccount/server/main.lua. Follow the instructions below carefully.

1. Update es_extended/server/common.lua

This step ensures compatibility with the qs-jobs-creator integration.

  • Action: Open the file es_extended/server/common.lua and check if the text "qs-jobs-creator" appears at the bottom of the file.

  • If it’s missing: Add the following code snippet at the end of the file:

-- Jobs Creator integration (qs-jobs-creator)
RegisterNetEvent('esx:refreshJobs')
AddEventHandler('esx:refreshJobs', function()
    MySQL.Async.fetchAll('SELECT * FROM jobs', {}, function(jobs)
        for k, v in ipairs(jobs) do
            ESX.Jobs[v.name] = v
            ESX.Jobs[v.name].grades = {}
        end

        MySQL.Async.fetchAll('SELECT * FROM job_grades', {}, function(jobGrades)
            for k, v in ipairs(jobGrades) do
                if ESX.Jobs[v.job_name] then
                    ESX.Jobs[v.job_name].grades[tostring(v.grade)] = v
                else
                    print(('[es_extended] [^3WARNING^7] Ignoring job grades for "%s" due to missing job'):format(v.job_name))
                end
            end

            for k2, v2 in pairs(ESX.Jobs) do
                if ESX.Table.SizeOf(v2.grades) == 0 then
                    ESX.Jobs[v2.name] = nil
                    print(('[es_extended] [^3WARNING^7] Ignoring job "%s" due to no job grades found'):format(v2.name))
                end
            end
        end)
    end)
end)

  • Purpose: This code integrates qs-jobs-creator by registering an event (esx:refreshJobs) that refreshes the job data in the ESX framework. It fetches job and job grade information from the database and updates the ESX.Jobs table accordingly, including error handling for missing jobs or grades.

2. Update esx_addonaccount/server/main.lua

This step adds support for refreshing addon accounts with qs-jobs-creator.

  • Action: Open the file esx_addonaccount/server/main.lua and append the following code at the bottom:

-- Jobs Creator integration (qs-jobs-creator)
RegisterNetEvent('esx_addonaccount:refreshAccounts')
AddEventHandler('esx_addonaccount:refreshAccounts', function()
    local result = MySQL.query.await('SELECT * FROM addon_account')

    for i = 1, #result, 1 do
        local name    = result[i].name
        local label   = result[i].label
        local shared  = result[i].shared

        local result2 = MySQL.query.await('SELECT * FROM addon_account_data WHERE account_name = ?', { name })

        if shared == 0 then
            table.insert(AccountsIndex, name)
            Accounts[name] = {}

            for j = 1, #result2, 1 do
                local addonAccount = CreateAddonAccount(name, result2[j].owner, result2[j].money)
                table.insert(Accounts[name], addonAccount)
            end
        else
            local money = nil

            if #result2 == 0 then
                MySQL.insert('INSERT INTO addon_account_data (account_name, money, owner) VALUES (?, ?, ?)',
                    { name, 0, NULL })
                money = 0
            else
                money = result2[1].money
            end

            local addonAccount   = CreateAddonAccount(name, nil, money)
            SharedAccounts[name] = addonAccount
        end
    end
end)

  • Purpose: This code registers an event (esx_addonaccount:refreshAccounts) to refresh addon account data. It retrieves account details from the addon_account table and processes them based on whether they are shared or individual accounts. For shared accounts, it ensures a default entry exists in the database if none is found.

Summary

By adding these code snippets, you enable proper integration with qs-jobs-creator, allowing the system to dynamically refresh jobs and accounts. Ensure both files are saved after modification, then restart your server to apply the changes.

Resolving Installation Issues with qs-jobs-creator in QBCore

The error you’re experiencing stems from a failure in the auto-installation process. To fix this, you’ll need to manually update two files: qb-core/client/main.lua and qb-core/server/main.lua. Follow the steps below to integrate qs-jobs-creator correctly.

1. Update qb-core/client/main.lua

This step ensures the client-side job data refreshes properly with qs-jobs-creator.

  • Action: Open qb-core/client/main.lua and search for the text "qs-jobs-creator" at the bottom of the file.

  • If it’s missing: Append the following code at the end of the file:

-- Jobs Creator integration (qs-jobs-creator)
RegisterNetEvent('qb:refreshJobs')
AddEventHandler('qb:refreshJobs', function(jobs)
    QBCore.Shared.Jobs = jobs
end)

Citizen.CreateThread(function()
    while true do
        Citizen.Wait(5000) -- Check every 5 seconds
        -- Check the resource state: "missing", "started", "starting", "stopped", "stopping", "uninitialized", or "unknown"
        local retval = GetResourceState('qs-jobs-creator')
        if retval ~= 'started' then
            -- Display a prominent warning in the server console
            print("^7-----------------------------------------------------^7")
            print("^1[QBCore] The 'qs-jobs-creator' resource is not running. Please start it to enable job creator integration.^7")
            print("^1When the resource is not running, players with jobs created via 'qs-jobs-creator' will be assigned the default job (unemployed).^7")
            print("^1If you don’t have this resource, remove this warning by editing 'qb-core/server/main.lua' at the bottom.^7")
            print("^2If you don’t own the resource, you can purchase it at: https://buy.quasar-store.com^7")
            print("^4[QBCore] If you have 'qs-jobs-creator' and it’s starting, ensure the resource name is correct ('qs-jobs-creator') and that the script is properly configured.^7")
            print("^7-----------------------------------------------------^7")
        end
    end
end)

  • Purpose:

    • The qb:refreshJobs event updates the client-side QBCore.Shared.Jobs table with job data from qs-jobs-creator.

    • The Citizen.CreateThread loop checks every 5 seconds if the qs-jobs-creator resource is running. If it isn’t, a colorful, attention-grabbing warning is printed to the console, alerting the server owner to potential issues.

2. Update qb-core/server/main.lua

This step ensures the server-side job data is synchronized with qs-jobs-creator.

  • Action: Open qb-core/server/main.lua and append the following code at the bottom:

-- Jobs Creator integration (qs-jobs-creator)
RegisterNetEvent('qb:refreshJobs')
AddEventHandler('qb:refreshJobs', function(jobs)
    QBCore.Shared.Jobs = jobs
end)

Citizen.CreateThread(function()
    while true do
        Citizen.Wait(5000) -- Check every 5 seconds
        -- Check the resource state: "missing", "started", "starting", "stopped", "stopping", "uninitialized", or "unknown"
        local retval = GetResourceState('qs-jobs-creator')
        if retval ~= 'started' then
            -- Display a prominent warning in the server console
            print("^7-----------------------------------------------------^7")
            print("^1[QBCore] The 'qs-jobs-creator' resource is not running. Please start it to enable job creator integration.^7")
            print("^1When the resource is not running, players with jobs created via 'qs-jobs-creator' will be assigned the default job (unemployed).^7")
            print("^1If you don’t have this resource, remove this warning by editing 'qb-core/server/main.lua' at the bottom.^7")
            print("^2If you don’t own the resource, you can purchase it at: https://buy.quasar-store.com^7")
            print("^4[QBCore] If you have 'qs-jobs-creator' and it’s starting, ensure the resource name is correct ('qs-jobs-creator') and that the script is properly configured.^7")
            print("^7-----------------------------------------------------^7")
        end
    end
end)

  • Purpose:

    • The qb:refreshJobs event updates the server-side QBCore.Shared.Jobs table with job data.

    • The Citizen.CreateThread loop mirrors the client-side check, ensuring the server also monitors the qs-jobs-creator resource state and provides the same warning if it’s not running.

Summary

These changes integrate qs-jobs-creator with your QBCore framework by enabling job data synchronization and adding a monitoring system to alert you if the resource isn’t running. After adding the code to both files, save them and restart your server. If the warning persists, verify that:

  1. The qs-jobs-creator resource is installed and named correctly.

  2. The resource is started in your server configuration (e.g., ensure qs-jobs-creator in your server.cfg).

  3. The script is configured properly per its documentation.

If you don’t plan to use qs-jobs-creator, you can remove the warning by deleting or commenting out the Citizen.CreateThread block in both files.
