MM not starting after install

[Mykle1]

@AnduriI said in MM not starting after install:

/home/pi/MagicMirror/node_modules/electron/dist/electron: error while loading shared libraries:

I believe that your dependencies did not fully install for electron, based on the above error message. Try this:

Move or rename or delete the electron folder from the /home/pi/MagicMirror/node_modules/ directory.

Then run npm install in the /home/pi/MagicMirror/ directory.

Then run npm start in the /home/pi/MagicMirror/ directory

[AnduriI]

well that didn’t worked…
I installed libgtk manually, now a new error: error while loading shared libraries: libgconf-2.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Again, installed that manually and found libnss3.soto be missing… let’s follow this route and see where it leads me…

[AnduriI]

well it looks like this was the last one missing, but still it does not work.

I don’t see any message saying why it failed…

I’ve never used Jessie lite or run node server only so I am a bit at a loss here. Often, troubleshooting can take longer than re-installation. In which case, I usually recommend a manual install. That has always worked for me, although I only use the full version of Jessie

[AnduriI]

yeah I know what you mean… I will try a re-install with full jessie and manual install. I will report back after that… thanks a lot.

@AnduriI If you’re worried about overhead and other useless applications on your Pi, the Complete Setup Tutorial has a useful command to uninstall a lot of the stuff you won’t use in a normal Raspbian image. It will pull out the Wolfram engine, LibreOffice, Minecraft, etc.

[AnduriI]

@bhepler well me using raspbian lite is just a habit and was not to decrease load. I have 3+ RPis all running headless with raspbian lite.
But doing a re-install was a good idea. Have a full jessie installed now and setup of MM went fine the manuall way. Also it seems to be starting, but I can’t reach it from my pc. Monitor for MM has not yet arrived.

But there is no page available at Spieglein:8080 or [IP]:8080. Did I miss a point in the config?

[AnduriI]

adding an address: "0.0.0.0",did it, I can see the black page of MM in my browser… thanks a lot for your help. Now I’m even more waiting for my mirror and screen to arrive…
