      HELP !! I cannot seem to be able to fix this. I updated a module and got an error message. when I run npm run config:check, it say:

      [14.04.2023 20:29.56.895] [INFO] Checking file… /home/ktodd32/MagicMirror/config/config.js
      [14.04.2023 20:29.56.924] [ERROR] Your configuration file contains syntax errors :(
      [14.04.2023 20:29.56.924] [ERROR] Line 16 column 6: Parsing error: Unexpected token :

      I looked at line 16 column 6 in the config file, but still not able to fix it. This is what is there.
      port: 8080

      magicmirror: 2.21.0
      npm: 8.19.3
      node: 16.19.1

      Thanks for any help.

        @kizzytodd the parser keeps going until it finds an obvious error. the cause might be sooner

        in general, unexpected token, means the line before the line reported is missing a trailing comma
        there are other more complicated causes but the trailing comma is the problem 95% of the time

          @kizzytodd said in Syntax Error Unexpected Token:

          port: 8080

          that line will cause a problem too, no trailing comma
