You lack the required entitlement to use <resource>

You own the script but this particular server is not the one it was granted to.

groupsThat script does nothingpersonYou can fix this

Do this first

Re-grant it in the Cfx portal to the key that is actually in your server.cfg.

What it means

Cfx checked whether this server is allowed to run the asset and said no. It is the entitlement side of escrow: the resource exists, it is intact, and this server is not licensed for it.

What causes it

Ordered by how often it is the answer.

  1. 1

    Not purchased on the account the server key belongs to

    Entitlements follow the Cfx account that owns sv_licenseKey, not the person running the server.

  2. 2

    Purchased but never granted

    Some sellers grant by hand after purchase.

  3. 3

    The server key was regenerated

    A new key is a new server as far as entitlements are concerned.

  4. 4

    Running it on a second server

    One grant, one server key.

  5. 5

    A shared or leaked copy

    An asset obtained outside the marketplace has no entitlement and never will.

How to tell which one is yours

Open the Cfx portal and compare the granted server against the key in server.cfg. If other escrowed resources start fine, the key is good and this one grant is missing.

Where to look

sv_licenseKey in server.cfg, and the seller's grant list.

How to fix it

Not a code problem. Get the asset granted to the server key you are actually running, or put the correct key back.

Still stuck on your own code?

This page is what this error usually means. Paste your console into Server Fixer and it will rank everything in it and tell you what to do first, and if you would rather not touch it, ORBIE can repair the script and hand the resource back ready to drop in.
