#"Getting 'global-install-failed' error and Telegram configuration won't save. Need help reinstallin

First thing: what does openclaw --version print? Version mismatch causes a lot of weird install/config-save errors.
For this specific combo, I’d check two things:
openclaw --version
openclaw status --all
openclaw doctor
openclaw gateway status
If the CLI itself is broken / missing, reinstall the local-prefix CLI path first:
curl -fsSL https://openclaw.ai/install-cli.sh | bash
Then open a fresh terminal and verify:
openclaw --version
openclaw doctor
For Telegram, don’t use a “login” command — Telegram is configured with a BotFather token in config/env, then the gateway is restarted. Minimal config shape is:
{
channels: {
telegram: {
enabled: true,
botToken: "123:abc",
dmPolicy: "pairing"
