Hi Suresh,

The parser most likely stumbles on the 'modules' list in your app file. The
modules are given as authentication.erl, which is not a valid atom. You
should remove the ".erl" part from the module names. You can check your .app
file from an erlang shell by calling file:consult("roamapp.app").
