npm start Problem

[Lockslay]

Hello everyone,

After a few months I wanted to

sudo npm start
/usr/local/bin/node: 1: Syntax error: “)” unexpected
What does this mean and how can I solve it?

[sdetweil]

@Lockslay NEVER use sudo

cd ~/MagicMirror
npm start

[Lockslay]

@sdetweil

stefan@smartmirror:~ $ cd MagicMirror/
stefan@smartmirror:~/MagicMirror $ npm start
/usr/local/bin/node: 1: Syntax error: ")" unexpected](Link Adresse)

Unfortunately, that doesn’t work either

[sdetweil]

@Lockslay can you do
node - v

[Lockslay]

@sdetweil
node - v

-bash: /usr/local/bin/node: cannot execute binary file: Exec format error

[sdetweil]

@Lockslay

when was the last update to the system or MagicMirror?

do

nvm
and
n

see if either respond… because node is in the local folder

@sdetweil

Hello,

I did an apt update && apt upgrade today.
Everything else did not work after a reboot.

n
and nvm

command not found
