openclaw - 💡(How to fix) Fix 升级版本后配置文件中的插件路径未更新，导致 gateway 启动失败 [1 comments, 1 participants]

TL;DR

Update the ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json configuration file to use relative paths or version-agnostic paths to resolve the plugin path not found error after upgrading openclaw.

Guidance

• Verify the ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json file contains absolute paths with version numbers and update them to relative paths or version-agnostic paths.
• Consider using symbolic links to point to the latest version of plugins.
• Run openclaw doctor --fix after updating the configuration file to ensure any other potential issues are addressed.
• If using relative paths, ensure the plugin directories are correctly referenced relative to the configuration file.

Example

"plugins": {
  "load": {
    "paths": ["../extensions/acpx"]
  },
  "installs": {
    "acpx": {
      "sourcePath": "../extensions/acpx",
      "installPath": "../extensions/acpx"
    }
  }
}

Notes

The current solution requires manual modification of the configuration file after each upgrade, which may be prone to errors. A more robust solution would involve automating the update of the configuration file during the upgrade process or using version-agnostic paths.

Recommendation

Apply workaround by updating the configuration file to use relative paths or version-agnostic paths, as this is a more immediate solution to the problem, although it may require manual intervention after each upgrade.
