Somehow you seem to have a JSON parser that doesn't like the '#' comments in the default.config file. Can you edit it, and remove '#' and everything that follows in each line, and see if that fixes things for you?

I remove the '#' in the comment, it doesn't work, it does not have this error

[ERROR ] Expecting value: line 9 column 45 (char 212)

others still have the same error message

[NTillmann]

I remove the '#' in the comment, it doesn't work [...]

Please try removing the entire comment, not just the leading '#'. The content needs to become legal JSON.

[guobao90]

Yes, I remove all the comment

this is the detail config, but still have the same error message

{ "redex" : { "passes" : [ "ReBindRefsPass", "BridgeSynthInlinePass", "FinalInlinePassV2", "DelSuperPass", "SingleImplPass", "MethodInlinePass", "StaticReloPassV2", "RemoveEmptyClassesPass", "ShortenSrcStringsPass", "RegAllocPass" ] } }

So it seems like you could workaround the first error:

[ERROR ] Expecting value: line 9 column 45 (char 212)

But what remains is the second error:

error: No ProGuard keep rules provided. Redex optimizations will not preserve semantics without accurate keep rules.

You need to provide ProGuard keep rules.

How to solve this? I am also facing this problem
