I wanted to install extensions in the bolt admin interface. As soon as I open the page it gets my this error:
An unknown error occurred. This was the error message:
JSON.parse: unexpected character at line 1 column 1 of the JSON data
Lookin at the console of the page I get:
TypeError: n.error is undefined [Learn More] bolt.js:9:20734
n > http://localhost/bolt-public/js/bolt.js:9:20734

r > http://localhost/bolt-public/js/lib.js:1:74124
n/< > http://localhost/bolt-public/js/lib.js:1:79953
In this file I found:
/**
* These are Bolt’s COMPILED JS files!
* Do not edit this file, because all changes will be lost. You can edit the
* `*.js` files in `app/src/js/` and then run `yarn grunt updateBolt` to generate
* this file. You will need to use the "Clone the Git Repository" installation method, to
* get these files. See: https://docs.bolt.cm/core-development/install-git-clone,
* as well as the `README.md` file in the `app/src/` folder.
*/
So what can I do besides install the extensions manually? If I go this way I can't update Bolt either.
That is caused by a low-level exception, the latest release from just before Christmas has updates to the JavaScript to be a bit more informative about what is really going on.
