MRC-CONVERTER-SUITE PasswordBoss error - ... [Solved]

Can anyone help with this error?

C:\Users\xxx\Desktop\mrc-converter-suite>perl convert.pl passwordboss pm_export.json
Can't use an undefined value as an ARRAY reference at
C:/Users/xxx/Desktop/mrc-converter-suite/./Converters/Passwordboss.pm line 378 (#1)
(F) A value used as either a hard reference or a symbolic reference must
be a defined value. This helps to delurk some insidious errors.

Uncaught exception from user code:
Can't use an undefined value as an ARRAY reference at C:/Users/xxx/Desktop/mrc-converter-suite/./Converters/Passwordboss.pm line 378.

I see where the problem could arise, but would like to be sure I understand how your export data would cause the issue. It appears one or more of you "items" in the export JSON file have no tags attribute. The converter is expecting items with no tags to look like this:

Note the empty tags list (designated in the JSON as [ ] which is an empty list).

Can you see either any items that have no tags attribute, or that have a tags attribute but there are no tags listed and the value is not [ ] ?

Also, what version of 1PasswordBoss for Windows do you have?

I hope I am understanding this correctly. I searched my entire pm_export.json and didn't find any occurrence of 'tags'.

I am exporting from Password Boss System Info v5.5.5190.0 - Production (Native app) and trying to convert to 1Password for Windows 8.10.28, 81028034, on PRODUCTION channel.

That's perfect. I've made a quick fix for you to test. At the location where you downloaded the converter suite, there is a Custom folder. Inside is a new Passwordboss.pm converter. Download that, replace yours in the Converters folder, and you can re-try the conversion.

That did it. You can't get an output any cleaner than this.

Thank you.

Excellent!

Add the -v option and you can see a summary count of the various categories converted.

Thanks for the report. Enjoy 1Password.
