MMM-CalendarExt3 and MMM-MonthlyCalendar blank

So, it works installing manually, bash history…:

sudo apt update
sudo apt full-upgrade
sudo reboot now
curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_20.x | sudo -E bash -
sudo apt-get install nodejs -y
sudo apt install npm
git clone https://github.com/MagicMirrorOrg/MagicMirror
cd MagicMirror
npm run install-mm
cp config/config.js.sample config/config.js
npm start

The install log from the one that doesn’t run is here if that helps at all.

@Scott-M very interesting… only thing I can see different is the sandbox permissions

I don’t have time til later today to examine any more…

thanks for the feedback

Scott-M

@sdetweil OK, I will keep the various SD cards with working and non working version for a while just in case it would be of help.

sdetweil

@Scott-M thanks… appreciate that

I had one more attempt at this, this time I ran an update and upgrade before running your script and this time it worked. Cannot see why that would be…

Happy to experiment more if you need more info but I am going to start on building the 2 way mirror now!

sdetweil

@Scott-M and my script does that before too, its in the install.log file

@sdetweil
I am sorry if this has been a wild goose chase and a waste of your time. I flashed the SD card, ran the script several times and it didn’t work, I will try one more time tomorrow and leave it at that.

Random results from repeating the same process are very frustrating.

sdetweil

@Scott-M frustrating indeed

but its normal

Results from todays adventures writing Pi images to SD cards…

I don’t really know what, if any difference there could be but I flashed 4 SD cards with the same
64 bit Bookworm image.

2 of them, I just ran the install script and let it update the system. The other 2, I updated / upgraded first. 1 with apt full-upgrade and the other with apt upgrade and then ran the install script.

The first 2 stopped at the same point on the starting server message and the other 2 just worked.

When the system stops at the starting server message, CTRL-C doesn’t do anything so SIGINT is not being picked up.

It may well just be something peculiar to my setup or enviroment.

@Scott-M great feedback… I have family stuff most of the day today…

did you do npm install or npm run install-mm

npm run install-mm is more like what I do in the script… which limits what things npm does…

npm install does everything possible
