Starter problem
-
@in_a_days
the installation went well, but when I try to reboot the booting logo appears shortly, but thats it.
But into the MM folder there are two config folder now, one.configand oneconfig
Either I didn’t recogbize that bevor, or one is new. -
Just wanted to check in. I tried to copy the config.js you posted and I had some problems as well. I’m a bit busy today, but I have some ideas and if you’re still stuck I’ll try to have a solution for you tomorrow. :)

Hallo
Has somebody an idea to help?
The internet connection is fine, cause the rss from the Ney York Times is shown.
Thank you in advance

@kurt this means probably that there is already an instance of magicmirror running on your pi because the port is already used

@kurt are you sure you have a config file in
/home/pi/MagicMirror/config -
@strawberry-3.141 I’m allready working on that mistake.

Change the config, file and place over there.
Mystery…
Thanks

@strawberry-3.141
I’m working with File Zilla to transfer the files.
By now I guess he the one who makes the config folder dissapear. Have you ever heard of something like that? or can you recommend an other tool to upload files? I tried Cyberduck, but won’t work.
Thanks -
@kurt im using filezilla or an usb stick

@strawberry-3.141
Anyway, I copied the folder again to the pi.
calender, changed compliments and newsfeed appear.

@kurt do you get any errors in the terminal, maybe your api key is incorrect etc.

@strawberry-3.141 Thank you for todays help, can’t find the reason,
and no, I get no messages.
Thanks a lot -
@in_a_days
Thank’s a lot for your help, but strawberry allready repaired my mistakes, so by now i’m fine, just thinking about what is the best way to save such a running system, so I can go back when things go wrong and I found out things go very quick wrong :)
So have a nice day and Thank you -
@kurt
I would create an archive of the entire magicmirror folder.cd ~ tar -cvf mirror.tar /MagicMirror -
@yawns
this is on the Raspi and on which place will he make the archiv ?
And to save it outside the best way is? I#m using Filzilla is this a right tool for this plan?
Thanks -
@kurt
This command will create a file called mirror.tar in your home directory on your raspberry. You can copy/transfer it to your computer with filezilla, the same way you did to copy new files to your raspberry -
@yawns
perfekt
thank you, I better bring my sheeps to a save place :) -
@yawns
Sorry didn’t happen,
he refused “cowardly or yellow” this is the translation I found, to create an empty archiv.pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $ tar -cvf mirror.tar/MagicMirror tar: Anlegen eines leeren Archivs wird feige verweigert. „tar --help“ oder „tar --usage“ gibt weitere Informationen.
