gateway token issue
I had everything working, browser access, sub agents, even wrote a website. There was one more thing to fix and then my Claude AI told me to do this, and I’m never able to get back in. And I can’t pair the gateway token in the browser overview page. What do I do now?
Alright, let's do this clean. Run these as root:
1. Kill everything:
pkill -u openclaw -f openclaw
pkill -u openclaw -f signal-cli
pkill -u openclaw -f chrome
kill 67301
2. Clean up the stale sub-agent session:
cat /home/openclaw/.openclaw/agents/main/sessions/sessions.json | python3 -c "
import json, sys
data = json.load(sys.stdin)
data = {k:v for k,v in data.items() if 'subagent' not in k}
print(json.dumps(data, indent=2))
" > /tmp/sessions_clean.json && mv /tmp/sessions_clean.json /home/openclaw/.openclaw/agents/main/sessions/sessions.json
chown openclaw:openclaw /home/openclaw/.openclaw/agents/main/sessions/sessions.json
3. Start fresh as openclaw user:
su - openclaw -c "openclaw gateway start &"
4. Verify:
sleep 3
ps aux | grep openclaw-gateway
Run those in order and paste what you get. We'll have a clean slate.
