Troubleshooting
Common problems and how to fix them.
Shops / blips don't appear
- Lua syntax error in
config.lua. A missing comma or bracket stops the file loading. Check the server console for an error mentioningalamo-marketorconfig.lua. - Resource not started. Confirm
ensure alamo-marketis inserver.cfg. - Blip disabled. Check the location's
blip.enabledisn'tfalse.
"You are not allowed to use this shop"
The shop has job restrictions and the player doesn't qualify.
- Verify the
jobsnames exactly match your framework's job names. - Check
minJobGrade/ per-jobminGradeagainst the player's grade.
Player paid but received no item
The item
name in the catalog must exist as a real inventory item. If it doesn't, the framework's AddItem silently fails while money is still removed.- Confirm the item
nameexists in your items list (ox_inventory,qb-core/shared/items.lua, ESXitemsDB, etc.). - Match the exact spelling/case used by your inventory.
Wrong language showing
- Check
Config.Localeis set to a file that exists inlocales/. - If you added a custom locale, ensure the filename matches (e.g.
fr→locales/fr.json). - A missing file falls back to
enand logs a warning in the console.
Theme / colors didn't change
- Make sure only one
:rootblock is active (uncommented) invariables.css. --accentand--accent-rgbmust be the same color.- Restart the resource or re-open the UI after editing.
"Too far from shop" on purchase
The server caps purchase distance at ~10m. The player must be standing in/near the marker when checking out. This is anti-cheat protection and is expected behavior.
Notifications don't show
- With
system = 'event', the notification resource that listens for your configured event must be running. - With
system = 'custom', ensureCustomis a valid function (otherwise it falls back to framework). - Enable
Config.Debug = trueto see notify diagnostics in the console.
Still stuck?
Turn on debug logging and re-check the console:
config.lua
Config.Debug = true
Then restart and reproduce the issue — extra diagnostics will be printed.
