If you want to install rasa from source, you should clone the repository, e.g. `git clone git@github.com:RasaHQ/rasa.git` and not download the folder. See also [Installation](https://rasa.com/docs/rasa/user-guide/installation/#building-from-source). ---

@rahult13786 Sorry, my bad, it should also work if you download the repository. Just tried it myself. Ca you please check that `git` is installed on your machine? ---

Dear @Tanja, GIT is not installed on system. is it mandatory to have git? Without that it is not possible.? It should as i have already downloaded all the files. ---

Sorry, for the late reply. This seems to be an issue with poetry itself: [get\_vcs fails if git is not installed · Issue #2107 · python-poetry/poetry · GitHub](https://github.com/python-poetry/poetry/issues/2107) ---

I dont understand. the problem still there. Is that GIT must installed on the server to prevent this error?
