      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 :)
