      I don’t have any clue how I should resolve this error. I’ve tried checking the file it refers to, but don’t see how I could fix anything. I don’t have any prior programming knowledge, so I’m resolving problems as I go about. Any help would be appreciated.

      pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $ npm run config:check

          So does this mean there’s nothing I can do about this, and wait for an update to resolve the issue?

              @sdetweil I just want to fix the error “Wrong syntax in the config file!”. I thought I might be able to fix this myself, but you’re saying that it’s broken on release.

                @Joeritn do this,

                hopefully it won’t mess up.more than it fixes

                cd ~/MagicMirror
                npm install
                

                they changed how checking is done, but put all the code to DO the checking in the development tree, which I don’t load to save space on the SD card. you don’t need all the test cases and testing infrastructure, cause u will never run it

                  @Joeritn but what is the error shown?

                  if it’s unexpected symbol, then 95% of the time I missed a trailing comma on the line before the reported error

                        @sdetweil I did npm start in the MM folder. Is this what you mean? The mirror starts as it should, but on the bottom, there’s an error indeed. I have an internet connection.
