Manifest declares files that are not on disk

The server console prints a line like this.

What the console says

could not find file `<file>`

What it means

<resource> declares <file> in its manifest, but that file is not there.

How to fix it

  1. If the path contains **, the glob matched nothing at all — check the folder exists and actually holds those files.
  2. Otherwise the file was renamed or never shipped: restore it, or drop the line from the manifest.
  3. For a car pack throwing five of these per vehicle, the pack was assembled wrong — fix it at the source rather than per resource.

When it is not this

This is a warning, not a failure — the resource still starts, and many vendors ship manifests listing optional files. A handful is normal and worth ignoring. Volume is the signal: hundreds of these per restart means a pack was built wrong, not that one file slipped.
