Failed at the magicmirror@2.2.2 start script 'sh-run-start.sh'

I think i figured out what went wrong ;)

i set up a new raspbian (Desktop Version) and could install the MagicMirro without any issues.

IMPORTANT:

while the installation of MagicMirror (automatic installer) u will see this:

Cloning MagicMirror Done!
Installing dependencies ...
npm WARN deprecated coffee-script@1.10.0: CoffeeScript on NPM has moved to "coffeescript" (no hyphen)
npm WARN prefer global coffee-script@1.10.0 should be installed with -g
npm WARN prefer global jsonlint@1.6.2 should be installed with -g

> uws@0.14.5 install /home/pi/MagicMirror/node_modules/uws
> node-gyp rebuild > build_log.txt 2>&1 || exit 0

When u arrived this, it seems the installation is done. But wrong! just wait. it will take some time even if there is no cursor blinking.

Just wait and you will see some more installation steps:

Wait again:

wait again ^^ and u will be asked if u want to use pm2. say YES! :

Finally u will see this:

And after a few seconds the magic mirror will start automatically and u can enjoy :D

Edit:
so just to get sure, here are the quick steps i did:

loaded the newest raspbian stretch with desktop from here
copy to SD card with ApplePi-Baker
put an empty file named “ssh” on the boot directory to enable ssh
start the pi
via ssh sudo raspi-config
set up some configurations like Network-Name, Screen resolution, enabled VNC, expand filesystem etc.
reboot
sudo apt-get update ; sudo apt-get upgrade
this will take a while
sudo rpi-update
this will take a while, too
reboot
bash -c "$(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/master/installers/raspberry.sh)"

Then just wait! ;)

VNC

No NPM install or other necessary pi setup as listed on the site at Configuring the Raspberry Pi?

Configuring the Raspberry Pi

Oh sorry, i enabled display rotate in the config. And to disable the screensaver i used sudo apt get install xscreensaver, then via VNC on the Desktop move to the upper left corner (the raspberry button) and go to Preference -> Screensaver and disable it.
Maybe use sudo apt-get install unclutter to hide mouse.

I just set it up to proof, if there are any issues ^^ So this was a quick install “guide”

But yes, there is no extra npm install or something like that necessary.
VNC can be enabled with raspi-config

edit:
oh, and keep in mind that u have to set pm2 to automatically start at reboot.

maybe after the first restart after installation finished there is no automatically startet MagicMirror.

did you set it up freshly?
i can’t imagine that you haven’t crashed something before. Please try a new installation of raspbian

carltonb · Jan 6, 2018, 1:45 AM

@cruunnerr Tried your method on step 10 it took almost 90 minutes to finish!!!
I then went to the page on Auto Starting. Followed the directions. Rebooted.
MagicMirror screen flashed for about 3 seconds, then it went to the desktop for another 3 to 4 seconds then it stopped at the command line.
If I run the logs it tells me

What step did I miss. It seems not to find the sh run-start.sh file. I am now so confused.
I will see how this sorts out over the weekend and will wait until Monday to try again.

cruunnerr · Jan 5, 2018, 11:34 PM

When u say yes for using pm2 while installation, it will make a MagicMirror process by itself.

type pm2 status

If there is a task called “MagicMirror”, then try:

cd
pm2 stop MagicMirror
pm2 start mm.sh
pm2 save

edit: however i need to say, that 90 minutes is really really much!
The whole installation of the raspbian OS including the MagicMirror took me about one hour

and your mm.sh should look exactly like this:

cd MagicMirror  //here must be a wordwrap. so don't use one line
DISPLAY=:0 npm start

to create this file type in console:

cd
nano mm.sh
adding the lines above and save with “ctrl+x” and “y”
chmod +x mm.sh

Are you sure you are running npm start in the MagicMirror directory?

The error I quoted from your post usually indicates that you are issuing the npm start command from outside the MagicMirror directory. I can reproduce that error when NOT in the MagicMirror directory.

Back home and started again.
Ran npm start in the /home/carltonb/MagicMirror directory here is the result

Followed cowboydude instructions for installing. This time it took about 10 minutes to install MM.
What is my next step.
Also thank all of you for taking the time to help a poor soul out.

Just discovered that I have two installs of MM one in /home and one at /home/carltonb. Have to figure out why it is installed twice. When I did the bash for the install command I may not have specified directories. I will try again in a few hours.
