Question: What can I do about the following error when trying to use FiveM
- error: CURL error code [number]
Answer: CURL errors are usually the result of networking issues, either from the server host or with your internet connection. These errors are not caused by the FiveM client or FXServer directly.
To solve the issue, try the following steps:
Check if you can connect to other servers
If you can, the issue is likely with the particular FXServer and you should contact the server owner for assistance.
Check if you can connect to the FiveM test server
If you are unable to connect to any servers, the issue may be your internet connection. In which case, try the following steps:
Allow FiveM through your firewall
- Connections to FiveM services may be blocked by your firewall. You should either allow FiveM through your firewall or disable your firewall
Disable any Virtual Private Network (VPN) you may be using
While some VPN services may bypass filters put in place by ISPs, others may cause CURL errors to occur.
Check with your local network administrator
If you are on a corporate or school network, check with your network administrators to see if they could be blocking FiveM.
