Even am facing the similar issue.
I have just added OPENAI_API_KEY, apart from this I have not configured anything in .env file

I have the same issue:

I have the same issue:

this is unrelated. You can switch to redis storage or just ignore this for now.
The error looks like it fails to communicate with chatgpt.
Running the command with --debug, shows too me that i am hitting rate limiting. so i guess waiting is the solution :)

Edit: I just added my credit card to my OpenAPI key and still hit the rate limiting. So maybe something is buggy right now.

Now everyone is facing the same problem, how to solve it

[sumedh1996]

Same Issue, any fixes?

[Aruen24]

The openai-api key problem?

[sumedh1996]

Fix:

1. The file 'auto-gpt.json' doesnot exist: Add a file in root with name auto-gpt.json and initialize it with {}
2. For RunTime Error: Add Payment to your chat GPT account, even if you have ChatGpt Plus you need to add payment

Can't I use it without a paying account? Is there any other way

[JuroOravec]

Duplicate of #1189. @DevanandhS would you close this one issue if it indeed is the same thing?

(I had this issue too - It's that haven't opted into "paid account" on OpenAI's billing page. The auto-gpt.json is a red herring - it's a last messag we see, but it's unrelated to the API limit reached, the script can work without the auto-gpt.json)

I'm making an MR as we speak to update the README section on OpenAI's API key, to make this clear.

Thanks ... upgrading to paid works for me

This is a python error resulting from incorrect implementation of data ( replace() ) manipulation methods on particular data structures (json)
noob code needs fixing

[nuchito22]

Este es un error de Python resultante de la implementación incorrecta de métodos de manipulación de datos ( replace() ) en estructuras de datos particulares (json) El código noob necesita corregirse

Perfect, you mentioned that the code needs to be modified. Do you have any ideas on which file needs to be modified and what code needs to be added? Thank you.

[ahmedIdres]

so someone found how to solve it without a paid account ?

[0xVelo]

I have a paid API account but still having the error, someone can help?

[d-yoshioka093]

I also have a paid API account but get the same error.
