@izanbard
Thank you. I did the chmod to make it executable but using the ./update.sh worked. Thank you again for your help.

To all future readers: I found a way better solution for this. You can check it out in this thread:

@noorm91 said in How to apply changes on the MM other than reboot? ftp?:

Thanks again for trying, I will look it up tomorrow and try before reinstall.

Ok, keep me posted. I’ve never used anything other than a Pi 3 B or better, nor have I ever ran MM as node server only, but I am interested in knowing how you get it running.

Your instructions are clear and consice and I was easily able to modify the module even though I am a beginner. However, I’m only displaying “all day” events for some reason. Any ideas?

@ROMSY Yes that is possible, I have done it too. It is a bit more hastle because the splashscreen didn’t work after the automatic installer and you have to do some manual stuff as linked by broberg earlier in this topic.

@AnyKey try to change the port which is used by Magicmirror. The Diskstation seems to use port 8080 for something else.

@ibuildmirror I think its a lot easier to do serveronly mode and use safari then you dont need any other dependencies

@antonia thats what git is for a version control system for all changes

Here I’m getting errors while installing Magic Mirror. There is dependencies conflict between nodejs and npm. I also tried sudo apt-get install nodejs npm. But still couldn’t get the results!

Open explorer

create a new folder called magicmirror
download magicmirror and unpack it in that dir

Open a CMD window and go to the magicmirror directory

Go to Node js and get node and install it…

Once you have that installed go back to your CMD window and type in
“npm install”

If everything is in correctly it should install the magicmirror software

Once that’s installed type “npm start”… should start the mirror…

I don’t think I missed anything but if I did someone please feel free to point it out!

@aaronaxvig To run MagicMirror automatically on startup:

Create a .bat file and put it in the startup folder (Windows Explorer > type “shell:startup” without quotes in the address bar). Set the contents of the bat file:

cd your MagicMirror Git repository folder
npm start
