While doing the sync I got a error when starting the webdriver. I retried the command and got the same stacktrace.

An error occurred while running the script.

Sorry for the late response. Looks like the script can't find the chrome binary (your chrome install executable). It's possible Ubuntu OS may not be supported. I can look into this more when I get some time.

This might be fixed in v3.3.0. The script uses new methods to handle chrome browser and chromedriver internally. I recommend giving it a try and see how it goes.
