Submodule Troubleshooting
View some basic troubleshooting steps when activating Sonoran CAD submodules.
Core Commands
Sonoran CAD's core includes powerful built-in commands. These commands are entered into your server console.
Ex: A support member may ask you to send detailed logging information to them. They will give you the specific ID number to enter. (ex: 123)
Entering sonoran support 123 in your server console will send your plugin configuration directly to our support application.
Command | Description |
sonoran debugmode | Enables detailed debug logging |
sonoran info | Displays version and config information |
sonoran support <NUMBER> | Sends important information for customer support purposes. The NUMBER parameter will be provided to you by a support team member. Ex: |
sonoran plugin <NAME> | Displays plugin information Ex: |
Quick Checks
1. Ensure your community is on a paid version.
Your community's subscription may have expired and failed to renew. Do a quick check on your community limits to make sure your community version includes the submodule you are trying to install.
Each submodule guide lists the required subscription version at the top.
2. Ensure your submodule is enabled
Be sure to follow the core installation and submodule activation guides thoroughly, depending on the specific submodule you are trying to activate.
Make sure you have not forgotten to enable the submodule in the plugin config file!
Enter sonoran info into your server console.
If the submodule you are having trouble with is listed as DISABLED, you may have forgotten to enable it in the submodule configuration.
3. Ensure your API ID is set correctly.
Ensure you have set your API ID in the CAD using the value from the API ID submodule.
Debug Mode
The SonoranCAD core includes a powerful debug mode. Enable this by entering sonoran debugmode into your server console.
Debug mode will print out additional error information and JSON data for all API calls or push events.
1. Check your API ID:
For plugins that require your individual CAD user account to have the API ID set (live map, unit locations, panic, etc.) you can view this data in the console output.
The image below shows an API Call being made from the server to Sonoran CAD. This API call is type UNIT_LOCATION and includes all the data necessary.
Ensure the APIID listed in the API call matches the API ID set in your CAD's user account.
2. Check the Community ID and API Key
Your community ID and API key is also listed in the debug API call information. Be sure that the community ID and API key are correct.

Common Errors
Error: Ensure config.json is present
Your framework or plugin config is not correctly named config.json. Ensure that is has been spelt correctly, is not config.json.json, etc.
You may need to open the file in a text editor to more easily see the file extension, and ensure that it is correctly named as config.json.
