Geth + Web3 | web3.eth.getAccounts() returns undefined

Question

I have follow this SO answer for sending ERC20 tokens from 1 address to another. I am running into an issue where I am receiving an error that my from address is invalid

Error: Error: WalletMiddleware - Invalid "from" address.

The from address works just fine when I use the web3 function contract.balanceOf, so I am not sure why it says my address is invalid

Here is my code:

 contract.transfer(
    '0x002FaCf5B2e8441c7ECb4eb6dCfD9C7b46320c97', //toaddress
    web3.toWei(1, "ether"),      //send 1 token
    {
        from:'0xb8fd65fc6919c5b97453eaba6b895144597985b2' //fromaddress
    }, function(err, transactionHash)
    {
        if(!err)
        {
            console.log(transactionHash);
        }
        else
        {
            console.log(err);
        }
    }
);

I didn't see where web3.eth.getAccounts() is used in your code, but this is javascript promise and you might wanna use it this way to get the accounts:

web3.eth.getAccounts(function(error, accounts) {
if(error) {
    console.log(error);
} else {
    console.log(accounts);
}
});
