In this guide, we’ll go over how to troubleshoot and fix common uMod/Oxide plugin errors on your Rust server.
Step 1: Identify the Plugin Causing the Error
- Open your server’s Web Console.
- Look for red error messages — these usually mention the name of the plugin file (for example,
ExamplePlugin.cs).
Step 2: Reload or Remove the Plugin
oxide.reload <PluginName>If the error keeps appearing, temporarily remove the plugin file from /oxide/plugins/ and restart the server.
Step 3: Check for Dependencies
Some plugins rely on other libraries or frameworks. Check the plugin’s documentation and install any required dependencies before re-adding it.
Step 4: Review the Logs
Open /oxide/logs/ in the File Manager or via SFTP. Each plugin error is logged there with details that can help pinpoint the cause.
Step 5: Test Again
Upload or re-enable the plugin and restart the server. If errors persist, the plugin may be outdated or incompatible with the current Rust or Oxide version.
Notes
Because plugins are community-made, We can’t provide code-level support or guarantee that every plugin will work as intended. Always test new plugins carefully and keep regular backups of your server files before making major changes.
