✅ Have you read and understood the above guidelines?

yes

📜 What is the name of the script you are using?

Paperless-ngx

📂 What was the exact command used to execute the script?

bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/community-scripts/ProxmoxVE/main/ct/paperless-ngx.sh)"

⚙️ What settings are you using?

  • Default Settings
  • Advanced Settings

🖥️ Which Linux distribution are you using?

No response

📝 Provide a clear and concise description of the issue.

When trying to update the paperless-ngx installation, it fails due to a pip error message.
pip says that the python version is managed externally.

I found that pip issue and the solution on stackoverflow

See here on stackoverflow

The problem was the existance of the file /usr/lib/python3.11/EXTERNALLY-MANAGED

I renamed it to /usr/lib/python3.11/EXTERNALLY-MANAGED.old

Then it was possible to fetch the requirements using pip.

Maybe the check if this file exists, and the mv command could be added in the script prior to calling the pip install command.

🔄 Steps to reproduce the issue.

just run the script in a container running an older version of paperless-ngx

❌ Paste the full error output (if available).
