      well thank you for the link, but I could’t find a simple solution for my problem. The mirror doesn’t start also if I do the

      DISPLAY=:0 npm start

          Hi memebers
          anyone else has an idea to get my mirror back on the screen again?
          It’s frustrating for me, because the mirror with all the modules was running like a charm, but after that update …
          Thank you

            Until you can fix your updated installation, you can rename your MagicMirror folder and manually install the version of MM that was working for you. At least you’ll have your mirror back

              thank you Mykle1, sounds for me as it is a weekend job.
              To get things right: first thing is to rename the MagicMirror folder.
              Second step is to go thru the install routine https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/236/complete-setup-tutorial
              Is it than possible to copy/paste the modul-folders from the renamed (old)MMfolder into the new one and and the old config.file?
              I read your help in https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/5081/mm-wont-start-after-install/2
              but I guess this is a different problem.
              Thank you

                Hi Kurt,

                if I understand correctly your mirror doesn’t show up despite your pm2 “starting” it successfully!?

                the run-start.sh shell script seems to be the problem.
                This is the content:

                if [ -z "$DISPLAY" ]; then #If not set DISPLAY is SSH remote or tty
                	export DISPLAY=:0 # Set by defaul display
                fi
                electron js/electron.js $1
                

                I would assume electron has some problem starting…

                  Hi lavolp3
                  Bevor the update, pm2 startet the mirror, by now nothing happens at all, even no black screen etc.
                  do you know a way to heal the mirror?
                  Thanks

                    To get things right: first thing is to rename the MagicMirror folder.

                    Yes, but then I suggest you do a manual installation. If you run the automatic installer script you may run into trouble again.

                    Rename your MagicMirror folder. Go to https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror and click on the green Clone or download button on the right
                    side of the window, then click on Download ZIP. Now you have a MagicMirror-master.zip file. Double Click the file. Inside is the MagicMirror-master folder. Move that file to your /home/pi folder. Rename that folder to MagicMirror. Then in your terminal, cd into the MagicMirror directory and run npm install. When that finishes, run npm start, also in the MagicMirror directory.

                    At this point the mirror should run but you’ll likely get a “Create a config” message displayed. At which point you should do this.
                    https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/4528/how-to-create-a-working-config-for-absolute-beginners

                    Then back to your terminal, in the MagicMirror directory, run npm start. That should get your mirror running.

                    Then you can copy your modules, 1 by 1 into the new MagicMirror/modules folder and the entries into your new config.js file.

                    That should do it.

                      @Mykle1
                      Hi Mykle1 and Thank you for your help so much!
                      After I followed your help step by step the mirror appeared again, but I was suprised when I put all my modul folder into the “new mm”, that together with the old config. file everything worked out fine. Could’t believe that it was that easy.
                      But still I have two more things where I could’t get a for me clear solution in the forum:

                      DeprecationWarning: sys is deprecated. Use util instead.
                      

                      and the second thing is, that I can`t find the Remote control funktion on my mobile phone, as I found it bevor. Here is the part of my config.
                      Is there the “0.0.0.0” in ipWhitelist missing, and if yes, where to put it?
                      Kurt

                      var config = 
                      {
                      	electronOptions: {
                      		
                      	},
                      	  ipWhitelist: [
                      		"::fff:0.0.0.0/1",
                      		"::fff:128.0.0.0/2",
                      		"::fff:192.0.0.0/3",
                      		"::fff:224.0.0.0/4",
                      		"127.0.0.1",
                      		"::ffff:127.0.0.1",
                      		"::1"
                      	],
