Setting up Magic Mirror remotely?
-
@yawns Via VNC, It froze when it did the two warnings. the pi prompt never returned. I just shut it down. Had to leave. Will try again when I have time, next time via the hdmi screen.
-
tried again today with the hdmi screen, it got to where it said something about it was loading a file that had 715 at the end and froze. so restarted removed the folder, and restarted installing remotely. it got to loading depandencies and gave me this :

tried starting npm remotely got this:
pi@raspberrypi:~ $ npm startYou would need to
cd MagicMirrorto change into your MagicMirror directory first, then runnpm start -
Went back to the website and read, and found something about npm install, so ran that, it looked like it installed something, then ran npm start again and got:

Terminal is telling what happened and you what to do here.
Go into your MagicMirror folder, then into the node_modules folder, then DELETE the electron folder.
Then run
npm installagain in the MagicMirror directory -
ok read some on the repository, was able to run the serveronly and got this
Magic Mirror2
Please create a config file.
See README for more information.
If you get this message while your config file is already
created, your config file probably contains an error.
Use a JavaScript linter to validate your file.what next?
-
Look at the bottom left of my post. Click on Create a working config
-
I got it to work, but then I went through the pi setup stuff to turn on the screensaver and wifi sleep, now when i tried to reboot, it says
[FAILED] Failed to start Light Display Manager
SSH is enabled and the default password for the ‘pi’ user has not been changed. This is a security risk - please login as the ‘pi’ user and type passwd to set a new password.
pi@raspberrypi: $How do i get it to continue to the desktop screen?
-
I’ve never encountered that before. Maybe, revert the changes you just made, get your mirror running, then try them again, 1 at a time
-
fixed the light display thing by rebooting with hdmi unplugged, then repluging it in, then rebooting, but the ssh message still there
