Are those your configs, or are you just copying someone elses?  The latter is a bad idea.

In this case, the problem is i3blocks.  Do you have it installed?  What's in the i3blocks config?

EDIT: I see the i3blocks config is there too.  Is that what you are using?  You should explain this better, not drop a link to a large repo and expect us to go sifting through it.

o im sorry
yes its i3blocks i think
i copy all configs (i3,i3blocks ,etc) from that repo
i3blocks is installed on my system
when i run "i3blocks" in terminal:
ERROR parse_property:98: unknown key: "border"
or
ERROR parse_property:98: unknown key: "border_top"
ERROR parse_property:98: unknown key: "border_left"
and ...
are these lines have problem?

This is why it's a bad idea.  The border property is only available from git builds of i3blocks, it is not in the last tagged release which is what's in the repos.
