Thank you

Hi,

There you go...

from exegol.

I don't know why but it seems that you have a problem with the git command.
You have installed exegol via git clone apparently, can you try to run the git diff command in your 'Exegol' folder and see if you have an error too?

there u go...

Do you know why you have this error Not a git repository ?

Did you make a git clone or download the project in zip file?

How did you install Exegol in the first place ?

• With pip install exegol ?
• With git clone <...> ?
• From github by download a zip archive that you unzip on your machine ?
• Or other ?

You can join us on discord and open a ticket, it will be easier to debug by chat: https://discord.gg/hqyXRNk5

I'm pretty sure was git clone <...>

Hi @gsbuosi, your previous screenshot (#121 (comment)) says otherwise.
We would be happy to help you, but it would be way easier through our Discord server.

If you don't want to go through Discord, that's alright but I'll then ask you to conduct the following steps, and upload here a screenshot of the command and result for each step.

1. Remove your Exegol directory: rm -r Exegol/
2. Remove any pip instance of Exegol: python3 -m pip uninstall exegol
3. Reinstall Exegol with the following command line: git clone https://github.com/ShutdownRepo/Exegol
4. Install the requirements: cd Exegol && python3 -m pip install --user --requirement requirements.txt
5. Run python3 exegol.py version -vvv
6. Try to update your image again

Closing the ticket. Debugged the issue with @gsbuosi on our Discord server. @gsbuosi cloned the repo with sudo and was running Exegol without, causing the program to be unable to read some files.
Solve: either clone the repo without sudo or use exegol with those rights. Exegol needs to access its own files properly.
