@chpietsch @liaizon @dev oh no, I'm sorry it was a frustrating experience but I can totally understand. It could have been different problems depending on when you tried it.
The most likely problem is that we (as in multiple people in the development chat, this was a large decision and it was best to consult multiple people before going through with this) decided to forego SQLite Support in the newest release.
The reasons were the growing complexity of keeping it in the codebase. When we introduced better full text search, we basically had to split the migrations into two with different constraints, different table layouts, etc.
Basically a lot of maintenance work.

Around that time we were also looking into different ORMs around that time since the old one was on one hand quite dynamic, but on the other hand didn't really aid us via compile-time checks.
The new one we settled on didn't have support for SQLite though.

So those two reasons combined meant that we did forego the support for it.

A classic failure to update documentation by me, my mistake and I apologise for that. I will update them ASAP.
If you wanna give it a try with a PostgreSQL database though but it still has issues, feel free to either ask Mr here or over in one of the chat rooms (linked in the project README)

Thanks for explaining! It all makes a lot of sense. Will try again with Postgres.

@chpietsch @liaizon @dev Thank you for giving it a second chance, also the chat channels aren't for development only buy also if someone needs support, so feel free to pop in any time (I should probably add this to the documentation, too)

Maybe try to make this error message more helpful. As it mentions EOL, I thought I had a syntax error in that weird config file.

I was not able to see an unbalanced quote or bracket. So I installed the dhall tool but it was happy with my config file. Then I gave up.

@chpietsch @liaizon @dev Thanks for the feedback, I will try to improve that.
In case you still have the config file with which you produced the error, it would be great if you could send that my way.
Because judging from the error, it parsed the file correctly but it was actually the database driver that got confused.
With the repro file I could try to just do some checks on the database string to prevent these unhelpful messages
