The folder is not named qs-newspaperjob. A renamed copy halts the server on purpose. Rename the folder back, update server.cfg and restart.

• The framework was not detected: es_extended, qb-core or qbx_core must start before the job. Without a framework the editor never spawns.

• F8 shows Ped model '…' never loaded: Config.StartJob.ped.model is not a valid ped model.

Correct behaviour for players without the job: the blip is only shown to those who can deliver. Give the job, set Config.RequireJob = false, or check that Config.EnableBlip is on.

The job's tables and your framework's characters table use different collations. On start the script aligns its own columns automatically. If the console prints could not align …, run the ALTER TABLE statement it prints, exactly as shown, in your database and restart.

Your database has no ESX jobs / job_grades tables in the shape the script expects. The job's own tables are still created. Add the job by hand, or import [sql]/qs-newspaperjob.sql.

The player's job is not in Config.NewspaperJob. Check the job name matches exactly — on QBCore and Qbox it must also exist in shared/jobs.lua (see Registering the Job). Set Config.RequireJob = false to let anybody deliver.

The inventory has never been told about the newspaper, so no route can hand a bag out. Register the item for your inventory — Registering the Newspaper Item — or correct Config.NewspaperItem, then restart the inventory and the job.

The bag of newspapers does not fit — by slots or by weight (1,000 per paper in the qs-inventory and qb-inventory snippets). Nothing was taken and nothing is owed; free some space and start again, or lower the item's weight.

The courier owes more than one bag of papers from earlier routes — dropped, stashed or given away. Any papers they carry are handed in automatically when they try again, and the figure goes down. Smaller debts are simply charged out of the next route's pay. The tab is cleared by a restart of the resource.

Every spot in Config.VehicleSpawnCoords has a vehicle within 2 m. Move the vehicle or add more spots. If the spot is empty and the message still appears right after Start route, the ride's model does not exist on your server — F8 shows could not load vehicle model ….

The route's or the ride's levelRequired is above the courier's level, which the server reads from its own records.

A route must be started within 15 m of the editor. It happens when the panel was opened through the export from somewhere else.

With Config.RequireWorkVehicle on, throwing is blocked unless the courier is on the bike the route spawned. Get back on it, or turn the setting off.

• It must land within Config.DeliveryRadius (5 m) of the stop point — aim at the ground marker, not the house.

• The courier must still be within Config.DeliveryValidationDistance (40 m) when the server checks. Lowering that value costs fast riders stops.

• The projectile must be Config.NewspaperWeapon, thrown with Config.Keys.ThrowKey. A different throwable is ignored.

• The inventory must actually spend the paper when it is thrown — that is how the server knows a throw happened. On qs-inventory and qb-inventory, acidpackage must be in Config.Throwables.

By default the bag holds exactly one paper per stop, so a missed throw leaves one stop without a paper. Raise Config.NewspaperAmount to hand out spares, or turn on Config.UnlimitedNewspapers.

Your keys resource is not in the supported list or starts after the job — see Vehicle Keys. For fuel, set Config.Fuel = true and point Config.FuelExport at your fuel resource.

The drop-off only opens once every stop is delivered or the bag is empty. To stop earlier, use Abandon route in the panel — it pays nothing.

The server measured the courier more than Config.ReturnValidationDistance (15 m) from Config.DeliverBikeCoords. Step closer and press E again — the prompt stays up.

The route's figure is for every stop. Pay is scaled by the share of stops delivered, then by the ride and level bonuses, and any newspaper that left the bag without reaching a stop is charged at one stop's worth — the courier is told so. See How Pay Is Worked Out.

The courier no longer held a newspaper job when they handed the bike in — the server re-checks the job at payout. Or no stop was delivered at all.

qs-job-management is running, so payouts are booked through the job's treasury. That is its intended behaviour — see Job Accounts.

The boards refresh every Config.UpdateLeaderboard minutes. Reopen the statistics after that. Only couriers with experience in the period are listed.

The character has no first or last name in the framework's table, or the character was deleted. With Config.PlayerNameSource = 'cfx', offline couriers fall back to their character name.

Winners who were offline at the reset are paid the next time their character loads. Resets run at 00:00 server time; if the server was off at midnight, the reset runs on the next start.

Config.EnableLeaderboard is off. Turning it off also stops the daily and season resets and their prizes.
