You need to post your grammar and make sure that you have not used
‘literals’ in the parser.

True is first. I also tried adding True and Identifier to the tokens list,
(with True first), but that doesn't make any difference. I also added an
ERR: . token like you suggested and that doesn't help.

List it before IDENTIFIER as you have written it here and add a ERR : . ;
as the last rule to catch non-matches and issue an error.
