What is txAdmin?

txAdmin is the official web admin panel for FiveM servers — and it is already included in FXServer, so there’s nothing to install separately. It lets you manage your server from the browser instead of doing everything via configuration files and the console. The deployer is especially interesting for beginners: it sets up a complete server base for you using ready-made recipes.

How do I start txAdmin for the first time?

txAdmin starts automatically when you launch FXServer without arguments (i.e. without +exec server.cfg). The first start walks you through a browser setup:

  1. Start FXServer without arguments — txAdmin announces itself in the console and serves its web interface.
  2. Enter the PIN: on first access, the console shows a PIN that pairs your browser with the txAdmin instance.
  3. Log in with Cfx.re: you link your admin account via the Cfx login — the same account you use to manage your license key in portal.cfx.re (see the setup guide).
  4. The setup wizard then guides you through creating your server.

Note

If you instead start the server directly with +exec server.cfg, it runs in classic standalone mode without txAdmin — both routes are officially supported.

What are the deployer and recipes?

The deployer is txAdmin’s setup assistant: instead of gathering resources by hand, you pick a recipe — a prebuilt template that sets up a complete server foundation for you. Especially with roleplay frameworks, this saves many manual steps and typical beginner mistakes.

Several frameworks have established themselves in the community: ESX Legacy is considered the most widely used and is actively developed, QBCore is widely seen as stagnating, and the QBCore fork Qbox (built on ox_lib) is frequently recommended by the community for new projects. How much RAM a framework server needs is covered in the RAM guide.

Tip

Even with txAdmin, it pays off to know the server.cfg parameters — what the panel manages are exactly these values in the end.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to install txAdmin separately? No — txAdmin is included in FXServer. It starts automatically when you run the server without startup arguments.

Do I need an account for txAdmin? Yes, your regular Cfx.re account — login runs through Cfx. Additionally, you pair your browser once during the first setup using a PIN from the console.

Can I combine txAdmin with my own server.cfg? Yes — txAdmin manages your server including its configuration. Alternatively, you start FXServer classically with +exec server.cfg, entirely without txAdmin.
