Cloning a dolt repo onto a virtual machine

[nilswachsmuth-imtf]

Hi Dolt team,

We are trying to use dolt on a virtual machine. After dolt status we get that we are on the main branch, so dolt is installed. However, when we try to clone the needed dolt repo we get the following error:

Any chance we can get some help on this?

Thanks a lot!!

We also checked the credentials. Using ‘dolt creds ls’, we see that we use credentials that are linked to our account.

Hey @nilswachsmuth-imtf, thanks for reaching out. We're happy to help. Could you run dolt version and let us know what version of the Dolt command line you're using on that virtual machine? The error about unsupported repo format (__DOLT__) makes me think there might be an out of date version.

It looks like you are using DoltLab, so I'm also tagging @coffeegoddd as well just in case he sees any other clues.

@nilswachsmuth-imtf I sent an email with my proposed fix. I believe this has to do with the versions of DoltLab and Dolt you are using. Please upgrade to the latest DoltLab and Dolt and let me know if the problem persists. The DoltLab docker-compose.yaml file should have the -allow-nbf-dolt flag set in the doltlabremoteapi block.

I'm going to close this. Please reopen if the issue persists after upgrade.
