      @CLLA1972 yes, looks like another fun npm install problem

      do

      cd ~/MagicMirror
      sudo rm -rf node_modules
      rm package-lock.json
      npm install --omit=dev

                    show output of node -v

                    run my upgrade script with force instead of apply (as u are on the latest release)

                    bash -c  "$(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts/master/upgrade-script.sh)" force

                                    @CLLA1972 I don’t know

                                    make a backup

                                    see my https://github.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror-backup-restore

                                    then rename the MagicMirror folder out of the way, and run my install script. see if we can get running
                                    see
                                    https://github.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts

                                    if so, then run the restore to put back all the modules and config in the new mm folder created by install
