Thanks for the issue! It's happening because the v2 Verba is trying to create a new collection called VERBA_Config, if you used v1 before, the old VERBA_Config is already existing, but the v2 can't recognize it because we're using the UUID as ID.
We'll add a fix to that to automatically detect these cases, as workaround you can delete the collection manually or remove the whole weaviate cluster itself and rebuild it

where do I look on a Mac for the collection so I can delete them ?

If you're using Verba with Weaviate Embedded, the data should be located ~/.local/share/weaviate
If you're using Verba with a Weaviate Cluster you can use Collection interface to individually edit your data there as well

I deleted all things under share and still see this issue with the same error :
Failed to connect to Weaviate Collection may not have been created properly.! Unexpected status code: 422, with response body: {'error': [{'message': 'class already exists: found similar class "VERBA_Config"'}]}.

Are you using Weaviate Embedded or a Cluster?
