Config file can't be generated

[1sudo]

I'm getting the following error when running the latest release. As you can see below, my node version is up to date. I can go into DiscordJS.js and comment out the following:

function initDecoders() {
// if(!Utils.exists(config['decoder-path'])) {
Utils.registerDecoder(new DiscordDJ.FFmpegDecoder(null));
// } else {
// Utils.registerDecoder(new DiscordDJ.FFmpegDecoder(config['decoder-path']));
// }
Utils.registerDecoder(new DiscordDJ.ChiptuneDecoder());
}

This allows the bot to start but when I play a song with !yt it says "You were added to the wait list and your track was set" and no song plays.

Any idea what's going on?

root@msg:~/bot/DiscordDJ-0.0.5# node -v

NPM is installed!
Installing dependencies (that can take a while)

Dependencies are installed.

Now, you can start the bot.
We will help you configure the basic information

Run the bot now? [Y/N] y

So there is an easy fix for this: Create "config.json" as an empty file / put "{}" in it and the installation dialog will apear as expected.

Btw: @Guichaguri :You "deleted" my issue and use the generic-title one instead? I usually check issues before I open a new one, but "error" or "didnt work" is not as useful...

@bitrape Sorry, I changed the title =P

philno's fix is useful if you start setup-bot.sh without permissions or something went wrong and you get "TypeError: Cannot read property 'decoder-path' of null"
