      So,
      I have looked on Google and various repos but my problem still stands,
      Wit.ai failed parsing app.json
      I edited this because another person said to but there is still the problem. I pasted app.json into JSONLint and it was valid. Please help

      on raspberry pi3 btw

        Maybe I should have explained a bit more:

        I was following the yt vid by HackerShack and got to the bit where he creates an app using wit.ai. In this, he presses New app+ and then types a name, description and as his bkup file, inserts wit_training_data.zip
        this can be found at
        https://github.com/HackerShackOfficial/AI-Smart-Mirror/tree/master/models
        I pressed +create app and then the error popped up “failed parsing app.json”
        I troubleshooted and found this:
        https://github.com/wit-ai/wit/issues/1538
        I try to change
        “zip-command”: “zip smart-mirror.zip smart-mirror/app.json smart-mirror/entities/.json smart-mirror/actions.json smart-mirror/stories.json smart-mirror/expressions.json”,
        to
        “zip-command”: “zip smart-mirror.zip smart-mirror/app.json smart-mirror/entities/.json smart-mirror/actions.json smart-mirror/stories.json smart-mirror/expressions.json”,
        but i still get the error notification. any suggestion?

        Like many others, this change did not work.
        I copied the saved contents off app.json into
        https://jsonlint.com/
        and the json was valid

        what do i do??

          Right,Update

          I solved this issue

          1.Extract files from “smart-mirror”
          2.edit app.json:
          {
          “version” : 20160513,
          “zip-command” : “zip smart-mirror.zip smart-mirror/app.json smart-mirror/entities/*.json smart-mirror/actions.json smart-mirror/stories.json smart-mirror/expressions.json”,
          “data” : {
          “name” : “smart-mirror”,
          “description” : “smart mirror assistant”,
          “lang” : “en”
          }
          }

          BECOMES

          {
          “version” : 20160513,
          “zip-command” : “zip smart-mirror.zip smart-mirror/app.json smart-mirror/entities/*.json smart-mirror/actions.json smart-mirror/stories.json smart-mirror/expressions.json”,
          “data” : {
          “name” : “smart-mirror”,
          “description” : “smart mirror assistant”,
          “lang” : “en”,
          “timezone”: “Europe/London”
          }
          }

          1. Compress the newly updated “smart-mirror” file
          2. Do the whole wit.ai thing but insert this new zip

          I’m pretty sure this should work

          New problem

          Failed parsing entities/

          I guess we have to edit some more but what exactly??
