Delete MM and re-download it.
Install manually.
Manual Installation
- Download and install the latest Node.js version.
- Clone the repository and check out the master branch:
git clone https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror - Enter the repository:
cd ~/MagicMirror - Install and run the app:
npm install && npm start - Important: npm start does not work via SSH, use
DISPLAY=:0 nohup npm start &instead. This starts the mirror on the remote display.
Note: if you want to debug on Raspberry Pi you can use
npm start devwhich will start the MagicMirror app with Dev Tools enabled. -

I am having the same problem. Wiped the pi and reflashed the image from scratch. Spent a few hours myself tonight trying various things to fix it without getting anywhere. Same exact errors as pasted above.
-
I’m getting the same problem. Started from scratch a few times but no luck. Finally managed to have it installed to the point where I could run using node serveronly then running on a browser. Also had to use ~/MagicMirror/vendor npm install as this seem to have been skipped in the auto installation when it hit the electron error.
-
Is there any way we can get a dev to look at this?

I installed npm in Vendors. Now my error log is significantly less, but still dies.
