Raspberry Pi Zero W for Magic Mirror
-
@sdetweil I’m an Apple user. I am sure there’s something similar, though. Thanks.
-
@sdetweil It looks like I spoke too soon. After a reboot, I cannot seem to get any output from MagicMirror.
I rebooted and then calledpm2 start MagicMirrorfrom within the MagicMirror directory, and it seems to execute just fine. But … nothing happens. It doesn’t actually start the app, as far as I can tell. Even though the output seems the same:[PM2] Applying action restartProcessId on app [MagicMirror](ids: [ 0 ]) [PM2] [MagicMirror](0) ✓ [PM2] Process successfully started ┌────┬────────────────┬─────────────┬─────────┬─────────┬──────────┬────────┬──────┬───────────┬──────────┬──────────┬──────────┬──────────┐ │ id │ name │ namespace │ version │ mode │ pid │ uptime │ ↺ │ status │ cpu │ mem │ user │ watching │ ├────┼────────────────┼─────────────┼─────────┼─────────┼──────────┼────────┼──────┼───────────┼──────────┼──────────┼──────────┼──────────┤ │ 0 │ MagicMirror │ default │ 2.27.0 │ fork │ 4592 │ 1s │ 148 │ online │ 0% │ 27.4mb │ dvg │ disabled │ └────┴────────────────┴─────────────┴─────────┴─────────┴──────────┴────────┴──────┴───────────┴──────────┴──────────┴──────────┴──────────┘Any ideas?

@davidgagne pm2 logs --lines=75
-
@davidgagne that circle with the arrow heading column says times restarted. 148 is a problem
-
@sdetweil I emailed you the output from that. I’m guessing
Error: Cannot find module 'electron'is bad? -
@sdetweil It’s frustrating because I swear it was working before I rebooted.
-
@sdetweil If you thought 148 restarts was bad … This is what I see now:

@davidgagne got it. Just back from my walk… will examine…

@sdetweil I followed your tutorial on adding the Jeopardy module (just to see what would happen) and it worked fine. The last step is
npm startand when I did that I got this:> magicmirror@2.27.0 start > ./run-start.sh $1 [2024-05-29 10:30:09.649] [LOG] Starting MagicMirror: v2.27.0 [2024-05-29 10:30:10.200] [LOG] Loading config ...

@davidgagne yep,
not my tutorial just one I reference
see this
https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/15778/fix-for-black-screen-in-2-16-and-later -
@sdetweil Hmmm. Okay. I tried that for the ‘alert’ module but it didn’t seem to have any impact:

(The Pi desktop is there, though.)
-
@davidgagne why alert? it’s the mmm-jeopady module that is missing a library
-
@davidgagne said in Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W for Magic Mirror:
async App.start (/home/dvg/MagicMirror/js/app.js:261:3) {
code: ‘MODULE_NOT_FOUND’,
requireStack: [
‘/home/dvg/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-JEOPARDY/node_helper.js’, -
@sdetweil So, because I am relentless, I rebooted to see if that would help. It didn’t, but now it looks like I have a different problem altogether:
cd MagicMirror/ pm2 start MagicMirror [PM2] Spawning PM2 daemon with pm2_home=/home/dvg/.pm2 [PM2] PM2 Successfully daemonized [PM2][ERROR] Script not found: /home/dvg/MagicMirror/MagicMirror -
@davidgagne pm2 status
-
@sdetweil Oh. I thought the alert module was also indicating it was missing. Okay, I’ve tried
npm init -yinside the MMM-Jeopardy dir, too, now.pm2 statusgives me:┌────┬────────────────┬─────────────┬─────────┬─────────┬──────────┬────────┬──────┬───────────┬──────────┬──────────┬──────────┬──────────┐ │ id │ name │ namespace │ version │ mode │ pid │ uptime │ ↺ │ status │ cpu │ mem │ user │ watching │ ├────┼────────────────┼─────────────┼─────────┼─────────┼──────────┼────────┼──────┼───────────┼──────────┼──────────┼──────────┼──────────┤ │ 0 │ MagicMirror │ default │ 2.27.0 │ fork │ 1865 │ 11s │ 28 │ online │ 21.4% │ 38.6mb │ dvg │ disabled │ └────┴────────────────┴─────────────┴─────────┴─────────┴──────────┴────────┴──────┴───────────┴──────────┴──────────┴──────────┴──────────┘And now a subsequent
pm2 start MagicMirrorgives me:[PM2] Applying action restartProcessId on app [MagicMirror](ids: [ 0 ]) [PM2] [MagicMirror](0) ✓ [PM2] Process successfully started ┌────┬────────────────┬─────────────┬─────────┬─────────┬──────────┬────────┬──────┬───────────┬──────────┬──────────┬──────────┬──────────┐ │ id │ name │ namespace │ version │ mode │ pid │ uptime │ ↺ │ status │ cpu │ mem │ user │ watching │ ├────┼────────────────┼─────────────┼─────────┼─────────┼──────────┼────────┼──────┼───────────┼──────────┼──────────┼──────────┼──────────┤ │ 0 │ MagicMirror │ default │ 2.27.0 │ fork │ 1986 │ 0s │ 34 │ online │ 0% │ 22.6mb │ dvg │ disabled │ └────┴────────────────┴─────────────┴─────────┴─────────┴──────────┴────────┴──────┴───────────┴──────────┴──────────┴──────────┴──────────┘But there’s still nothing displaying (aside from the generic Pi OS desktop, I mean).
-
@davidgagne there are more commands after npm init
-
@sdetweil Ah. I see that. But … I don’t think the Jeopardy module is the main problem here. I’d prefer to simply remove that and try to get back to where I can even get MM to run in the first place; then I’ll screw around with adding modules. As it is I still can’t get MM to even run at all (plus all the restarts).
-
@sdetweil Am I wrong about this? It actually appears that ‘electron’ is the missing module. But that’s not in /modules it’s in /js … Do I follow the same
npm initsteps to get it? -
@davidgagne no the electron missing is a problem in MagicMirror code…
hang on…
