MMM-JsonTable - error and does not load

[sankum]

Thanks Sam. I changed it to http:// and even tried local IP address instead of localhost and the result is the same. Still the same error, and does not load.?

@sankum if you change to a file url in a browser

file:///home/userid/MagicMirror/modules/....

does the file load? this proves the file path and character case
remember linux is case sensitive

then replace in front of /modules
with

http://localhost:8080

Hi Sam,
file:/home/sankum/… loads with 1 slash in the browser. But nhttp://localhost:8080/modules/… does not, same errors as before?

[sdetweil]

@sankum is MagicMirror configured to port 8080?

not

nhttp

http://

Sam, MagicMirror is configured to port 8080. nhtp was a typo. It is http://…
As I said the file path and name are correct as I can read it in browser using file:/… (single slash). So not quite sure what is going on?

@sankum what is your address: setting in config.js

[sankum]

Sam,
address: “localhost”,

@sankum I used the sample from the readme

{
  "items": [
    {
      "name": "Watt",
      "value": "270 Watt"
    },
    {
      "name": "Today",
      "value": "5.85 kWh"
    },
    {
      "name": "ThisWeek",
      "value": "5.83 kWh"
    },
    {
      "name": "ThisMonth",
      "value": "12.8 kWh"
    },
    {
      "name": "LastMonth",
      "value": "246.75 kWh"
    }
  ]
}

in the module folder
and this config (from the readme)

{
  module: 'MMM-JsonTable',
  position: 'top_right',
  classes:'page1',
  header: 'HouseDB Sevensegment',
  config: {
    url: 'http://localhost:8090/modules/MMM-JsonTable/foobar.json', // Required
    arrayName: 'items' // Required---
  }
}  

and it displayed as expected

Thanks Sam.
So do I need port 8090 based on your config?. In my config port definition I have:
port: “8080”,

Other than that I don’t see any difference. Do I need to change router setting? Any missing package you think? Thanks.

Hi Sam,

Never mind!! It is port 8080.
I copied the json file you have shown and it worked. So it must be my json file. I will try to figure out what is the difference. Thanks for your help.
