can't start pod using the cli

I'm trying to start a pod using the cli by doing:

 runpodctl start pod <id>

 runpodctl start pod <id>

but I'm getting the error: Error: Cannot resume a spot pod as an on demand pod. I also tried putting a bid that matches the spot pricing:

runpodctl start pod --bid 0.340 <id>

runpodctl start pod --bid 0.340 <id>

and that gets me a different error Error: PodBidResume: statuscode 400

Solution:

I found the problem, the graphql query in the source code for runpodctl is missing the gpuCount param, ran it manually with the extra param and it worked
