    @smartsoldier
    Most of the syntax errors could be raised by missing or exceeding bracket, comma.
    I suggest you remove configuration of modules one-by-one and try.
    Or you should upload a complete config.js here.

      I also do not get an error when copy/pasting your config lines.

      $ npm run config:check
      

      does not give an error.
      You should try it yourself; a very useful command.
      Perhaps the error does not apply to the MMM-DropboxWallpaper config ?

          @smartsoldier We don’t know. Remove all the modules in config.js and add one-by-one. Let’s see what happens.

            @sean If I remove this module everything runs fine, then if I put it back this happens. Does that mean its this module or no?

              Are you willing to share the syntax error with us?
              I thought you were referring to the “create config file” message at startup.

                @smartsoldier Of course, it could be the fails of that module configuration.

                    No error at all. I didn’t modify anything.

                      Well I guess that settles that. I’ll just do a reinstall. Thanks for all the help though. You responded really quickly :)
