[MMM-Remote-Control] Cannot GET /remote.html

mvrlogins

I removed the Remote-Control installation using

rm -r -f  MMM-Remote-Control/

Installed it using the instructions on the github repository

cd ~/MagicMirror/modules
git clone https://github.com/Jopyth/MMM-Remote-Control
cd MMM-Remote-Control
npm ci --omit=dev

I now get the following - which doesn’t seem fatal at first glance -

npm warn ERESOLVE overriding peer dependency

@mvrlogins do

npm install

Instead of

npm ci

Will ONLY do exactly watch matches package-lock.json which is rarely correct

mvrlogins

@sdetweil

Redid the install using

npm install

No errors during install

Same problem

@mvrlogins yes, someone will have to update the module or downgrade the dependency in package.json

To make it clear here as well: “require() of ES Module ... not supported” shows that you are using a very old (unsupported) Node version. Like I said in the GitHub issue, you have to update Node.

I recommend using NVM to update Node (like recommended on the Node website).

Experiencing the same issue… Created a clean install of MM over the weekend and am getting the same error. NVM is updated. :-(

@kasperb in config.js

address:”0.0.0.0”,
ipWhitelist:[],

kasperb

@sdetweil Yup, that’s what I have - sample of config here:

let config = {
	address: "0.0.0.0",	// Address to listen on, can be:
							// - "localhost", "127.0.0.1", "::1" to listen on loopback interface
							// - another specific IPv4/6 to listen on a specific interface
							// - "0.0.0.0", "::" to listen on any interface
							// Default, when address config is left out or empty, is "localhost"
	port: 8080,
	basePath: "/",	// The URL path where MagicMirror² is hosted. If you are using a Reverse proxy
									// you must set the sub path here. basePath must end with a /
	ipWhitelist: [],	// Set [] to allow all IP addresses
									// or add a specific IPv4 of 192.168.1.5 :
									// ["127.0.0.1", "::ffff:127.0.0.1", "::1", "::ffff:192.168.1.5"],
									// or IPv4 range of 192.168.3.0 --> 192.168.3.15 use CIDR format :
									// ["127.0.0.1", "::ffff:127.0.0.1", "::1", "::ffff:192.168.3.0/28"],
