Updating Jaksam Inventory

Always create a backup before updating. Never delete your existing installation before you have a working backup.

Before You Start

Recommended: Keep your backup for at least a few days after the update. This makes it easy to roll back if something goes wrong.

Stop Your Server

Always stop your FiveM server before replacing the inventory files.

Create a Backup

Back up your customized files and folders before installing the new version.

Install the Update

Remove the old version and upload the latest Jaksam Inventory release.

Restore Customizations

Restore your backed-up files to the new installation.

What Should I Back Up?

Always Back Up

These files and folders should always be included in your backup:

Custom Files

If you haven’t customized any of the files listed above, you don’t need to back them up.

Update Process

Follow these steps in order.

Quick Reference

Troubleshooting

Restore the _data/ folder from your backup and restart the server.
Restore the _hooks/ folder from your backup.
Restore current_config.json from your backup.
Restore dist/assets/variables.css from your backup if you customized the default theme.
Restore your customized _images/ folder.
Restore _locales/ and/or dist/menu_translations/, depending on which translation files you customized.
  1. Make sure the new jaksam_inventory folder is installed correctly.
  2. Make sure your backup files were restored to the correct locations.
  3. Wait approximately 30 seconds after starting the server, as the database may be updating automatically.
  4. Check your server console for errors.
  5. If the problem persists, restore your previous backup and contact support.

Important

Never delete your backup immediately after a successful update. Keep it for a few days in case you discover an issue later.
Once everything is working correctly, your Jaksam Inventory update is complete.
