@Arzeg how did u upgrade?

can u tell me the output of

node -v
npm -v

an ‘attempt’ at a work around

edit the module node_helper.js

change the line

 const fs = require('fs/promises')

to

 const fs = require('fs').promises

I opened this issue on module github
https://github.com/fewieden/MMM-Fuel/issues/99

[Arzeg]

Thanks for the fast reply.

node version: 16.15.1
npm version: 8.11.0

Changed the line in the node_helper.js file.

looks good now, but i need to Update my API key.

What confuses me a bit is that the other modules are not affected, since I have the node_helper.js file in each module.

Oh and thank you for opening the issue on github

[sdetweil]

@Arzeg I don’t know why either … the author is very careful and quite proficient

glad the workaround worked…

[sdetweil]

@Arzeg also, the particular library is not used in many modules, so would not affect more than 2 or 3 out of hundreds

[Arzeg]

@sdetweil Okay.

Unfortunately, there is still an error with the workaround. I have requested a new API key (which works by calling it from the address bar of a browser) but now I get an error message from the module that the API key has expired.

@Arzeg said in MMM-Fuel black screen:

reason: certificate has expired

i don’t know how to fix that one

that is the server side certificate required to make https: work

there was a bug at one time (4 releases ago) where the runtime(electron) mis handled certificates, but we put a fix in for that

I opened this issue
https://github.com/fewieden/MMM-Fuel/issues/100
also opened on in MM
https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/issues/2924

@sdetweil Thanks for your help. How can I check if electron is up to date. Possibly that is where the problem lies

[sdetweil]

@Arzeg we use version 19 in this release

at the commandline do

grep  version ~/MagicMirror/node_modules/electron/package.json

[Arzeg]

@sdetweil My version is: 6.1.12 how can i update this?

[sdetweil]

@Arzeg eh?

can’t be

should be this

grep  version ~/MagicMirror/node_modules/electron/package.json
  "version": "19.0.15",

the release upgrade moved us from 17 to 19 (I am incorrect here, see later posts)

hm… how did u upgrade?

manual or my script?

lets check the package.json requested version

grep \"electron\": ~/MagicMirror/package.json 
		"electron": "^19.0.15"
