MM startup problem after update

[sdetweil]

@manu85340 ok, we need to back up to version 2.27 and node 18

so, first lets go back to node 18

sudo n 18

verify

node -v

should return something like this

~/MagicMirror$ node -v
v18.20.3

if that is successful, then on to MagicMirror

cd ~/MagicMirror
git fetch --tags
git checkout -b temp v.2.27.0
rm package-lock.json
rm -rf node_modules
npm run install-mm

then MagicMirror should start and run

npm start 

and not for startup

sudo reboot

@sdetweil Sam I have an error when I pass the line

git checkout -b temp v.2.27.0

pi@MagicMirror:~ $ node -v
v18.20.3

@manu85340 said in MM startup problem after update:

git checkout -b temp v.2.27.0

my fault (that little dot after the v!..) sorry

git checkout -b temp v2.27.0

You know, I just realized that the “blank screen” I mentioned earlier was actually just my screen setup. In fact, this is the same errors I was having with the NPM/Node being out of date…

[manu85340]

@BKeyport ok thank you for your answer I’m waiting to see if @sdetweil sdetweil finds a solution

[sdetweil]

@manu85340 see this post (and the one before it) in an issue w the same problem

[manu85340]

@sdetweil hi Sam if I understand correctly it is not possible to restart the MM with the update that I passed, that’s it,

[sdetweil]

@manu85340 I don’t understand.

we have restored back to 2.27

2.28 will not run on buster

you need the next at least bullseye
bur if you are upgrading, go to current, bookworm

[manu85340]

@sdetweil Sam a few posts above I told you that I had a problem passing this line:

git checkout -b temp v.2.27.0

so I didn't pass the other command lines

rm package-lock.json
rm -rf node_modules
npm run install-mm

[sdetweil]

@manu85340 yes and I replied with the corrected command

[manu85340]

@sdetweil Yes, that’s true, sorry, but then I made another comment to let you know that I had an error when I passed the line: ```
npm run install-mm

pi@MagicMirror:~/MagicMirror $ npm run install-mm

magicmirror@2.27.0 install-mm
npm install --no-audit --no-fund --no-update-notifier --only=prod --omit=dev

@manu85340 and then i posted another link with instructions for that problem

[manu85340]

@sdetweil Sam thanks for your help, but I think I’m going to give up… nothing works, I have another MM I’m going to copy the sd card and copy it to that of my MM and not do an update, if I understood correctly that it is the operating system that does not support updating? if this is it on which system should I install MM please?

[sdetweil]

@manu85340 the latest raspi OS is bookworm…

if this is a pi3 Id do the 32 bit version to save memory space.

I have updated the installer and upgrader to fail if trying to install or upgrade now on buster
