What it means
CL codes come from MTA's launcher, before the game starts: installing an update, finding GTA, loading MTA's own files or starting gta_sa.exe. MTA's own documentation gives this code as Legacy menu/Evolve label.
How to fix it
Work down the list and stop when it is solved.
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.
Close what the message names
If the message names a program, close it completely, then start MTA again. Some of these programs keep a background service running, so check that it has really stopped.
Still stuck? The Fix tool reads MTA's own log on your computer and points at the matching steps. Nothing is uploaded.
