Just open the AutoGPT file in VScode and create a new file called "auto-gpt.json" and save it to the main folder

If you still get errors after this just use "python -m autogpt --debug" in the command line
I had to run it a couple of times before it fixed all the errors. Try running it again
The failed response after 5 retries is potentially due to you not paying platform.openai.com for API access. they'll give you the API key before you set up billing.

I haven't found one
@GrantEagles @DrReefer you need to get your API keys and set them up in the .env file. The .env file should be copied and pasted from .env.template file.
Instructions on which API key obtained from where are in the README.md (Step 5 under Installation)

When I cloned, it doesn't have .env.template only has .env
@DrReefer please check the repo. There is a .env.template file. Or please re git clone the repo again.
@DrReefer - please let me know if you found a solution. I followed the same steps as you and received the same error.

Hey, make sure the .env file is not a text file. I've was able to get it to work.
"make sure the .env file is not a text file. I've was able to get it to work." kinda works but The file 'auto-gpt.json' does not exist.

I've had the same issue, I think it comes down to the fact that it can't find an outer bracket somewhere, even after you have the .json file. I'm probably wrong though.

Create a blank file and name it auto-gpt.json it worked smoothly afterwards.
also you need to setup billing for Chatgpt api or it’s not going to work.
Can some one please confirm if paying the open AI API solved this issue?
Well, I setup my billing and still getting the same message, the .env is a env file type not a text or template as my mac was taking it, and the API key is there so not sure what else to try. has anyone got this working on mac?
how to setup billing for Chatgpt api? @aggelos-michael-papadopoulos
You should see it as setup payment method or something like that

I have finally got it, in my case, the issue was that the Mac file extension was for some reason taking the .env as an Adobe Illustrator file type, I removed that file type from the file info and then it worked.
