Hello,
I have a 1-click Ghost droplet. It was running fine but was outdated so I did an update, which went smoothly. Unfortunately, now I can’t restart ghost.
When I do sudo -i -u ghost-mgr and attempt ghost restart I get:
ghost-mgr@br-2:/var/www/ghost$ ghost restart
Ghost-CLI commands do not work inside of a git clone, zip download or with Ghost <1.0.0.
Perhaps you meant `grunt restart`?
Otherwise, run `ghost restart` again within a valid Ghost installation.
Can anyone provide any pointers please?

Hello,
I’ve tried to replicate this at my end by setting up a Ghost 1-click Droplet and upgrading Ghost but in the end it worked as expected and I did not get the error.
What is the output of the following command:
ghost ls
Also, can you run an ls -lah in the /var/www/ghost folder?
Regards, Bobby
I am having the same issue, tried updating Ghost from 3.2 to 3.40 but when I try to restart Ghost I get “Ghost-CLI commands do not work inside of a git clone, zip download or with Ghost <1.0.0.”
any help?
