Are you trying to run in windows environment? Error might or might not be related to the windows environment but if are on Windows, you will need WSL anyway, try to run it in that.

Please use node version 23.3. And remove node_modules then, pnpm i again.

[TobiGoldD]

23.3 is not availible on their web site also this was working for about 6 hours before suddenly stopping with the error

[leyr1112]

What is error, please share screenshot here. Note for Windows Users: WSL 2 is required.

I run on Apple Silicon with no issues. Can you all try run the ElizaOS not the starter (in case it was the starter) and send me a feedback please ?

Downgrade your node to exactly 23.3.0 and follow the docs to do a fresh setup.

Yes Try to checkout the last release Has been solved on the last one

I've had the same issue on macOS. Checking out on latest release alone didn't solve my issue (maybe because i was adding API_KEY only in defaultCharacter.ts). These are the steps i've gone through: Clone Eliza repo -> Make sure you use node v23.3.0 -> Checkout to latest release -> Copy .env-example into .env -> Make sure you have API_KEY in your env and change the modelProvider if you need to -> pnpm i && pnpm build && pnpm start

Not sure if node v23.3.0 is essential, but it throws out warning unless you use it.
