What it means

MTA's own client shows a CC code when something fails before or during a connection: the address, the nickname, a module it could not load, or the connection itself. MTA's own documentation gives this code as Command-line mod failure.

How to fix it

Work down the list and stop when it is solved.

1. Repair your MTA installation

   Run the current installer from multitheftauto.com over your existing installation. It replaces MTA's own files without touching your settings.

2. Copy the whole message first

   Write down every line MTA shows, not only the code. The rest of the message often names the file, the server or the reason, and that is what tells you which step below applies.
