Error: Error parsing your configuration file: [/var/lib/ghost/config.production.json]: Unexpected token } in JSON at position 428

It looks like your config has a syntax error. Run it through something like https://jsonlint.com/

You might have to recreate the container. If you’re using containers, your best bet is to pass configuration options via env vars

That config file won’t exist when you update your Ghost version. You’re making changes to the Ghost core in a container and not a volume
