./run.bat start not working on windows

[eskayML]

Hello maintainers and contributors, So I've tried running the ./run.bat start which was written in the documentation on both powershell and cmd,

I also tried using both while running as an administrator, they apparently aren't running

I get the same error on mac

Just type run.bat Ignore the start, it runs without it.

I've had the same troubles testing it in the .vscontainer using ./run.sh start in the README.md and in PS with ./run.bat start shown there too.

In the .devcontainer I can get it to run with error with bash run.sh

vscode ➜ /workspaces/Auto-GPT (master) $ bash run.sh
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/workspaces/Auto-GPT/scripts/check_requirements.py", line 32, in <module>
    main()
  File "/workspaces/Auto-GPT/scripts/check_requirements.py", line 8, in main
    with open(requirements_file, "r") as f:
FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'requirements.txt\r'
run.sh: line 10: syntax error: unexpected end of file

There's a PR #2418 for it I tested but doesn't fix the issue for me.

In PS C:\ .\run.bat starts it up without issue for me.

Using python -m autogpt works on both.

@echo off :loop python scripts/check_requirements.py requirements.txt if errorlevel 1 ( echo Installing missing packages... pip install -r requirements.txt ) python -m autogpt --speak --allow-downloads goto loop

This is mine if you want to include looping and starting over if it crashes.

@Significant-Gravitas: I'm sure I'm a nobody to you but this GitHub has changed my life. I can't thank you enough for what you created here. Kinda cool you're in this remotes thing with me. I'm also not an experienced programmer and I believe you are a significant reason I'm changing that. T hank's for the inspiration, it is an honor. I'll probably be embarrassed i couldn't come up with another way to message you later but this was the best idea I could come up with. Also I'd really liike to know if I posted my personal API on the Master repo at some point, or multiple points, I really didn't mean to. I may have posted my SSN for all i realized. I've never felt so proud when I got this github to work lmao.

Hi @eskayML run it without start. If you want to know what other valid sub commands you want it to run with, do ./run.bat help
