"No Syntax Errors" but "Could noch validate config.file"

killing joke

Hello there,

I´m trying to configure my MagicMirror but unfortunately I´m completly new in this (Raspberry Pi coding).
I installed everything according to the manual from the MagicMirror homepage and it worked fine as default.

Afterthat I wanted to customize everything (my city for weather, calender/holidays for Germany, etc.), but thats where I´m stucked.
I changed the “config/config.js”-file (according to the MagicMirror homepage) and had some syntax errors.
Therefore I checked the internet and found a how-to “emilinate syntax errors for beginners” and I fixed everything and checked it with “npm run config:check” and it said “Your configuration file don´t containt syntax error :)” but when I want to start the npm I got a warning “WARNING! Could not validate config file. Please correct syntax errors. […]”.

My Problem are:

I don´t know how procede with the troubleshooting
I don´t know how to transfer a config-file from a Raspberry Pi to a Windows 10 Computer (Remotedesktop / putty)

I would appreciate if someone could help me.

Best Regards

Daniel

You could start here. Start with the default config again. When that is running add one module at a time using this guide

Hi Mykle1,

thanks for answering.
I didn´t add any modules yet. Only the default modules.

I will try that. Thanks for your help.
