I am trying to run tutor for dev use. But after more than 1 hour of manipulation, I get error “SyntaxError: EOL while scanning string literal”

Loading settings lms.envs.tutor.production
Traceback (most recent call last):

SyntaxError: EOL while scanning string literal

I get the error at the: “Running init task in lms stage”

Is there any reason why this happened or will I need to fix the error in the code myself?

Please type an actual site name/title during tutor local launch:

$ tutor local launch 
==================================================
        Interactive platform configuration
==================================================
...
Your platform name/title [Overhang.IO learning edition] Type something other than "\" here

Well, I specified the title during tutor dev launch. I didn’t leave it with " \ ".
But I’ll try again, thank you.
