MetaHub errors

in JavaScript

I have downloaded the newest MetaHub image to Raspberry Pi 3 originally purchased from Mbientlabs, but I cannot get the Desktop shortcut for Metabase to work. Nor clicking the icon in the Apps folder (Metabase-Node)

  1. Metabase app icon throws error (both Desktop and in the Apps folder)
> metabase-hub@1.2.0 start /home/pi/Apps/MetaBase-Node
> electron . "--config" "/home/pi/Desktop/metabase-config.json" "-o" "/home/pi/Desktop/MetaBase-CSV"

App threw an error during load
SyntaxError: Unexpected token } in JSON at position 525

    at Object.<anonymous> (/home/pi/Apps/MetaBase-Node/node_modules/electron/dist/resources/default_app.asar/main.js:328:5)

I'm not actually seeing where there is an unexpected token. Is the latest version of app.js in the MetaHub image or on Github? If on Github, I can just copy that info over.

  1. Running from the command line also does not work on the Desktop
pi@raspberrypi:~ $ cd Desktop
pi@raspberrypi:~/Desktop $ sudo npm start -- --metabase-config.json
npm ERR! code ENOENT

pi@raspberrypi:~/Desktop $
  1. Running from Command Line DOES work within the Apps folder. I copied the device info over from the Desktop version of metabase-config.json into the folder version.

Is there a simple fix I can apply to the code to get it to run from the Desktop? I will be shipping this off to a group of people, and I want it to be as simple as possible for them to run. Thx
