How do I enable txAdmin on my FiveM server?
In this article
txAdmin is FiveM's own web panel: you manage your server through the browser, with a live console, player list, bans, scheduled restarts, resource management and a recipe installer for frameworks such as QBCore and ESX. At MC-Node you enable txAdmin with a switch in the panel; the txAdmin port is assigned automatically.
Enabling txAdmin
- Log in to the panel and click your server.
- Click Settings and scroll all the way down.
- You do not need to create or enter a port: the txAdmin port is assigned automatically from your server's ports. You will find it on this page at txAdmin Port (on some servers txAdmin Poort); it is read-only. Want a different port? Choose it on the FiveM tab, which only lists ports your server actually has.
- Change the value of TXADMIN from
0to1and save. - Restart the server.
txAdmin is now reachable at http://serverip:txadminport/, for example http://141.95.6.122:40176/. The IP is at the top of the panel; the port is the txAdmin port from step 3 (so not the game port 30120).
Logging in for the first time
At the first start, your server's console shows a four-digit PIN, and txAdmin asks for it. Enter the PIN, link your Cfx.re account (recommended; it lets you recover a forgotten password later) and walk through the setup: choose an existing server data folder or let txAdmin install a recipe. If you already run a server with scripts, choose Existing server data and point to the folder containing your server.cfg.
What you manage in txAdmin
- Live console and the ability to start, stop and restart the server.
- Players: who is online, with playtime, identifiers, notes, warnings, kicks and bans (also by identifier, not just by name).
- Scheduled restarts with chat announcements, for example every six hours.
- Whitelist based on Discord, licence or approval.
- Resources: stop, start and reload without restarting the whole server.
- Recipes: ready-made installations of QBCore, ESX and other frameworks; see installing QBCore through a txAdmin recipe.
Security
txAdmin is open to the internet as soon as it is enabled. Use a strong, unique password, link your Cfx.re account and give co-administrators their own account with only the rights they need (txAdmin has fine-grained permissions). Never share your main account. Login attempts from unknown IPs in the txAdmin logs are normal internet noise; with a strong password they are not a problem.
Common mistakes
- The page does not load. Check that you use
http://(not https), that the port is the txAdmin port and not the game port, and that the server was restarted after enabling. - I do not see a PIN in the console. The PIN only appears at the first start without existing txAdmin data. Restart the server and look at the first lines.
- txAdmin starts but the server does not. In txAdmin you start the server separately (green button); check the server data folder and the path to
server.cfg. - Forgotten password. Log in through your linked Cfx.re account, or open a ticket; we can reset the txAdmin data.
Disabling txAdmin
In Settings, set TXADMIN back to 0 and restart. The server then starts directly from server.cfg again, without the web panel. Your scripts and settings stay in place.
Stuck? Open a ticket with a screenshot of the console at start-up.
