Hey,

I have some issues here too. Not very familiar with Linux and just got my first RPI, for this project specifically :)

I’ve been trying for hours now to get this to work, but MM just says that I need a working config file. I’ve tried editing the text in Sublime (I find it easier to read than the built in texteditor on Raspbian), but I can’t seem to find the errors.

I’m attaching the contents of my config file, minus the tokens and stuff:

/* Magic Mirror Config Sample
 *
 * By Michael Teeuw http://michaelteeuw.nl
 * MIT Licensed.
 */

var config = {
	port: 8080,
	address: 192.168.86.131,
	ipWhitelist: ["192.168.86.100", "192.168.86.150"],

	language: "en",
	timeFormat: 24,
	units: "metric",

	modules: [
		{
			module: "alert",
		},
		{
			module: "updatenotification",
			position: "top_bar"
		},
		{
			module: "clock",
			position: "top_left"
		},
		{
			module: "calendar",
			header: "Kalender",
			position: "top_left",
			config: {
				calendars: [
					{
						symbol: "calendar-check-o",
						url: "https://calendar.google.com/calendar/the_rest_of_my_calendars_URL"
					}
				]
			}
		},
		{
			module: "compliments",
			position: "lower_third"
		},
		{
			module: "currentweather",
			position: "top_right",
			config: {
				location: "Kongsvinger",
				locationID: "3149533",  //ID from http://www.openweathermap.org
				appid: "MY-TOKEN-HERE"
			}
		},
		{
			module: "weatherforecast",
			position: "top_right",
			header: "Weather Forecast",
			config: {
				location: "Kongsvinger",
				locationID: "3149533",  //ID from http://www.openweathermap.org
				appid: "MY-TOKEN-HERE"
			}
		},
		{
			module: "newsfeed",
			position: "bottom_bar",
			config: {
				feeds: [
					{
						title: "NRK Siste nytt",
						url: "http://www.nrk.no/nyheter/siste.rss"
					}
				],
				showSourceTitle: true,
				showPublishDate: true
			}
		},
	]

}

{
	module: "MMM-Ruter",
	header: "Reisetider",
	position: "top_left",
	config: {
		showPlatform: true, 
		maxItems: 10,
		stops: [
			{
				stopId: "4024715",
				platforms: [ "1", "2" ],
				timeToThere: 5
			}
			{
				stopId: "4020080",
				platforms: [ "1", "2" ],
				timeToThere: 0
			}
			
		]
	}
};
/*************** DO NOT EDIT THE LINE BELOW ***************/
if (typeof module !== "undefined") {module.exports = config;}

Any help is highly appreciated!

@johnnyboy Thanks for the leads! I’ll have a look at it.
I didn’t change the original file (or at least, I don’t think I did) - except for the alterations with keys and the Ruter-addon.

Stupid question: Is the config.js file supposed to be in the config folder, or should there be a /config/config (ie another folder called config) that contains the config.js ?

@xy86 said in messed up my config.. MM tells me to create a config file:

Is the config.js file supposed to be in the config folder

@johnnyboy Thanks - I should have learned that by now, but… Haha. You know.

I ended up re-installing Raspbian as i messed up something so the wifi-card wasn’t recognized anymore.
I also followed the step-by-step guide at https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/236/complete-setup-tutorial/6 and got by the cleaning process. I then tried installing apache2 and PHP5 again; getting the same error as the one below.

When I try installing MM now, I get these errors:

I tried googling the error, but I’m not sure if I’m on the right track with solutions described.

Any ideas?

What are you installing PHP5 and apache2 for?
