unable to use config-pin -f from files

[pedroteiro]

So im quite new with the BBB, im working on a project whre i need i lot of gpios so im tryintg to edit the provided capes using the graphic tool.
Im running the windows version that gives the following output
test.txt (.bbio)
but every time i run the congi-pin .f test.bbio i get the
debian@beaglebone4:~$ config-pin -f test.bbio
Invalid mode: gpio

im currently running

debian@beaglebone4:~$ dmesg | grep Linux

My goal is to disable hdmi and to use a few uart's, pwms, and a lot of gpios in my project.

Your dogtag is old. So it could be that your image is old.
use a new image like https://rcn-ee.net/rootfs/bb.org/testing/2019-09-08/stretch-iot/bone-debian-9.10-iot-armhf-2019-09-08-4gb.img.xz .
If it doesnt' work, your old bootloader in the eMMC might be blocking u-boot overlays, you can fix it via:

sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/mmcblk1 bs=1M count=10
