    if you installed one of the calendar patches or used the develop branch and intend to upgrade MANUALLY, YOU have to get back to the master branch ahead of time check the current branch cd ~/MagicMirror git branch output example * _fix_clipping develop master and if the highlighted (*) name is NOT master then rm package-lock.json rm package.json git checkout master use git branch to verify master is selected before continuing then do the commands as listed in the documentation if you are using my upgrade script, it will handle all this for you.

    @sdetweil said in Version 2.30.0 weather module, stuck loading, worked fine before upgrade: @Assassins seems it doesn’t work anymore… using my old 2.5 key I get code failure with openweathermap Strange, works on my sd card with MM2.29.0 and also works on MMM-DynamicWeather and on MMM-WeatherOrNot with MM2.33.0. Don’t know why openweathermap doesn’t work with MM2.33.0. Besides that, it may have something to do with the code in MM2.33.0 that has been rewritten.

    we have seen and verified that electron 8.5 and above are not working on raspian Jessie but Jessie is pretty old… u will see an error on npm start (after a version upgrade) /home/pi/MagicMirror__RL1/node_modules/electron/dist/electron: /lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libdbus-1.so.3: no version information available (required by /home/pi/MagicMirror__RL1/node_modules/electron/dist/electron) strongly recommended to rebuild a new sd card with raspian Buster

    fixes are published in the next release via the develop branch to get there if you did manual install cd ~/MagicMirror git checkout develop git pull npm install restart MagicMirror as normal if you used my install script cd ~/MagicMirror git fetch origin develop:develop git checkout develop npm install if u are already ON the develop branch, and want to update to the latest, git pull npm install restart MagicMirror as normal

    While trying to debug modules, I’ve been given quite mixed feedback regarding what to use to print messages to console, on either local system or in remote browser DevTools. So far, I have found the only reliable way that always seem to print something in the browser, is using console.error(). The others have varied. I’m on MM v2.2.2 (master).

    I think I found the issue, the scenes section for MMM-CalendarExt2 had an error. I discovered it by explicitly looking at errors in the console (and ignoring the many warnings).

    @ArnoldoB if you use the classes approach vs the module name approach . I could never remember the module name approach , always looking up and down, and figuring how to configure for multiple instances of the same module I like to use the classname “all_pages” for fixed, makes more sense

    I installed MMM-FOSHKplugin-PWS-Observations to get data from my Ecowitt WS 90 via a GW 3000. Everything works when dealing directly with the gateway. When I installed FOSHKplugin I first tried the stable version and then tried the beta version 0.10 and it installed and setup correctly as far as I can tell. When I installed MMM-FOSHKplugin-PWS-Observations and configured it all I get is a screen saying "loading’. I have tried running with and without a password with the same results. I realize there is a lot of data here, I did not know what all you may need. Thanks for your help.
