# Error parsing script (syntax error)

### ❌ Error parsing script (syntax error)

#### Error example

```
[script:op-garages] Error parsing script @op-crime/server/bossMenu.lua
[c-scripting-core] Failed to load script server/bossMenu.lua
```

#### What does this mean?

FiveM failed to load the script because the file is **corrupted, incomplete, or incompatible** with your server version.\
This is **not** a script bug — it’s almost always an environment or upload issue.

#### How to fix it

* If you’re using **FileZilla**, files may have been corrupted during transfer\
  → Use **WinSCP** or another FTP client
* **Do not upload the script file-by-file**\
  Upload the **.zip file as-is**, then extract it **directly on your VPS**
* Make sure your **server artifacts are up to date**\
  Minimum supported version: **4752**
  * Download updated artifacts
  * Or follow the official FiveM server update guide
* If the issue persists, **reinstall the script from scratch**
