@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

@Lockslay note I added an additional line

@sdetweil

Sorry,
I hadn’t seen the message

[sdetweil]

@Lockslay yeh, something installed the 64 bit v of node on your 32 bit system.

let’s try this

sudo apt-get remove nodejs

then

 node - v

[Lockslay]

@sdetweil said in npm start Problem:

node - v

sudo apt-get remove nodejs

@Lockslay ok, next

sudo rm -rf /usr/lib/node_modules/npm
sudo rm  /usr/local/bin/node
which node  
sudo apt-get remove nodejs
hash -r
which node
node -v

@sdetweil Thanks for your help, isn’t it better to reinstall?
I just realised that the config is no longer there either

[sdetweil]

@Lockslay yes, probably.

flash SD card
boot
skip updates
use my script

if u back up w my other script
I will restore the config, css, and modules on top.of the new mm after install
