Starting MagicMirror v2 beta

[MichMich]

Could you give the electron quick start a try?
https://github.com/electron/electron-quick-start

If that one doesn’t work either, its an Electron issue.

There seems to be an issue with electron on your RPi. Are you sure you are running it on a Pi 2? (And not a B+, they look very much alike…)

If so, I suggest you open an issue in the electron repository.

@MichMich

Ok, i’ll check with electron… I’ll update hou

thank you

[benjee]

I raised a ticket for m’y issue with electron-quick-start… hope it will be quick…

[benjee]

Still don’t have any news… from electron-quick-start, so still can’t use MagicMirror v2-beta :'(

[MichMich]

While You’re waiting, You could start the app using ‘node serveronly’ in this case you’ll have to use an other browser.

[benjee]

Hi there,
got it running using the serveronly feature… on my laptop, not with my “old” RPI1… (display is weired)
But on my laptop, got some NULL lines…

I got also issues with calendar and news while Mirror v2-beta was using wifi connection, since i moved it to a wired connection, i got calendar and news… if that helps…

[feuerball]

Got the same problem.
Had MMv1 running for some months, now wanted to update to v2.

Yesterday i installed it manually and it worked from the beginning.

After that i thought about a clean Jessie Install because of the autostarting stuff from MMv1.

Today i installed Jessie and MMv2 manually again, but now i got the same error msg :(

I already tried the electron-quick-start and it worked.

Have you tried using the automatic installer? A week ago I cleared my Pi model b 3 and used the auto starter. Note: you need to copy the config sample to js.
