Here's what I find in logs/error.log

{"level":"error","message":"Import utility failed while executing","timestamp":"2020-08-12T19:43:59.923Z"}
{"level":"error","message":"{}","timestamp":"2020-08-12T19:43:59.923Z"}

I used this utility roughly one month ago and it worked. It's unclear to me what changed since then. And I'm having trouble finding any useful output to debug.

It appears that the script was choking on .DS_Store files that MacOS creates silently.

I was able to get it working by adding .DS_Store to the skipFiles list on lib/import/entries.js:40 and lib/import/content_types.js:31

For whatever it's worth, I was able to find this bug by adding console.error(error); inside the catch statement in app.js. Currently, there are some log statements but they don't appear to log anything helpful when these kinds of errors occur.
