        it’s booting now! hurray! however, now I’m getting the package lock error when i try to complete the calendarext3 update and none of my events are populating. I have a thread up on someone else’s trouble shooting but I’m out of time this morning. I be back at it this afternoon. thank you again for all your help.

          @angeliKITTYx awesome. Thanks for the feedback

          package-lock? Erase that file then do the update

          There is a known bug affecting modules that have functions in their config like ext3. We are discussing ways to distribute these fixes.

            Did you get the npm run install-mm done after verifying node version was correct?

                @angeliKITTYx looks like you didn’t do that in the MagicMirror folder

                cd ~/MagicMirror
                npm run install-mm

                  I did it originally in the MM folder, but I ran it again and still getting the same errors

                  I did catch this before the entire terminal filled up with “: ical.expandRecurringEvent is not a function”

                    @angeliKITTYx that means the install-mm did not work

                    Please do again and show the output
