    npm install in the main MM directory. Then npm install in the PIR sensor directory to install dependencies. If it fails then npm rebuild as above using the correct electron version number and abi.

      @bungee09 The main MagicMirror directory, or the module directory within MagicMirror?

          @bungee09 @yawns When i ran the “npm install” in the MM directory, i got this error:

          npm warn grunt-yamllint@0.2.0 requires a peer of grunt@~0.4.0 but none was installed

          I googled the error and it looks like it shouldnt be an issue, but when i tried doing an install in the PIR directory (it failed), so did the rebuild with the updated electron version number (mine was 1.5.6).

          I got the same error when trying to run the rebuild

          Failed at the epoll@0.1.20 install script ‘node-gyp rebuild’
          Make sure you have the latest version of node.js and npm installed.

          Sorry for all the posts on here, but do you have any thoughts? I update node.js and npm to the most recent versions, so i dont think that what is broken for me :(

          When i try to run the mirror, here is the error i get before the white screen:

            @Them-Russians

            When i ran the “npm install” in the MM directory, i got this error:
            npm warn grunt-yamllint@0.2.0 requires a peer of grunt@~0.4.0 but none was installed

            Don’t worry about this one. The log file format is [process] [debug level] [error message]. In this case, “warn” is the level of severity of the message. If it said “err” then it would require your attention.

            I suspect your nodejs version is out of date. Try running this command: nodejs -v and then npm -v. It should spit out the version of node and NPM you’re using. Personally, I’m on v7.4.0 and v4.0.5 respectively. If you’re running a few versions behind, you may wish to run these commands from your home folder:

            curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_7x | sudo -E bash -
            sudo apt-get install -y nodejs
            sudo npm install -g npm
            sudo npm install -g npm
            

            And yes, you may have to run that last command twice. For some reason, NPM sometimes requires a double-tap to update itself. Thank you, StackExchange.

            Run nodejs -v again and verify that your node version is up to snuff.

              Hey there, thank you for the suggestion. updated both nodejs and npm to 7.4.0 and 4.0.5.

              I think removed the MMM-PIR-Sensor folder, grabbed it again from github, and then tried to run npm install on it, and the install failed again.

              An unhandled error occurred inside electron-rebuild

              I tried running the rebuild with my electron version number (1.5.7) but still no luck. Any thoughts on what else I could try? I am drawing a blank here, unfortunately.

                @Them-Russians i also thought i have a higher electron-version. but i tried

                npm rebuild --runtime=electron --target=1.4.3 --disturl=https://atom.io/download/atom-shell --abi=50

                and it worked for me.

                  @Them-Russians I think you definitely need to rebuild electron. I can’t see what else is causing the issue. Try with different electron version numbers. Otherwise I’m all out of ideas. Sorry!

                    @Them-Russians Try changing line 24 in package.json as shown here and reinstall with npm install in the module folder. Does that help?

                    Also: Please continue discussion about install issues here. There is already info on how it can be solved. For other problems with the PIR-Sensor Module please open a new thread in the modeul troubleshooting section.

                      Thanx a Million, Bro’ !!

                      The step-by-step did it for me!

                      I couldn’t understand that everybody’s was working so cool and mine dis diddly-squat?!?

                      So removing the module and reinstalling was the answer. No idea what went wrong first time round; Just grateful it is now working as expected.

                      Thanx for your great post!!
