And in the EN_US.UTF-8 folder? Is there stuff in there?

Yeah that’s odd, it’s the same on mine, so you do have en_US locale installed on the rpi. But why is MM² failing for you, when it’s working fine for me, that’s a bit of a mystery. If you don’t mind, just for grins, would you care to run through only Step 2 in this post: https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/236/complete-setup-tutorial/4, specifically the Internationalization part.

This is a real strange situation. I tried it with different language setting, but none of them seem to cause an issue. (Even when using language: 'foobar', it just works fine.) Could one of you who is experiencing the bug, look in the developer’s console for any error messages?

@MichMich I think this has something to do with electron? Because everything runs fine on server only.

I can’t really see how that’s affected. It’s just a variable that will be used to select the right file. I really need a log from the console to figure out what’s wrong.

@MichMich How do I dump the log file?

MichMich · Aug 1, 2016, 6:49 PM

It’s not the node log. It’s the console log you can see in the developers tools. A screenshot (with the red error messages) is enough.

I just pushed a possible fix to the develop branch. Please let me know if this solves the issue.

Hi MichMich- I am using the new develop branch and whatever the fix was is not working for me. I am still getting the blank black screen. I also wasn’t able to fix it with changing the naming conventions related to the language settings that worked for others.
