Quick answer: "Resource failed to start" = script error or missing dependency. Read console, check ensure order in server.cfg (oxmysql → framework → scripts), comment out broken resource.
If you landed here: Server starts but a resource is marked red, players can't spawn or ESX/QBCore won't load.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
FiveM resource failed to start – what first?
Open FXServer console or txAdmin log – red line shows resource + error. Common: missing dependency (oxmysql before es_extended), syntax error, wrong path.
ensure vs start in FiveM?
ensure loads resource + dependencies automatically. start only when dependencies already running. In server.cfg: oxmysql → framework → scripts.
Resource starts then stops immediately?
Runtime error in script. Check resmon, start resource alone (ensure resourcename), read log line with Lua error.
