      I did not attempt to update, but you could try to delete/rename/move the file it could not merge and try again

          if you have the same error as @Bob

          have you deleted or renamed the readme file under “/home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/default/currentweather/README.md”

            Not exactly the same, that’s the problem it does not say what’s conflicting:

            pi@raspberrypi_7:~/MagicMirror $ sudo git pull && npm install
            error: Pulling is not possible because you have unmerged files.
            hint: Fix them up in the work tree, and then use 'git add/rm ’
            hint: as appropriate to mark resolution and make a commit.
            fatal: Exiting because of an unresolved conflict.

              did you run git reset --hard and then git pull && npm install

                Where are these files? Should I just remove them?

                  Did you solve the problem, have you run

                  git reset --hard

                    Hi! Thank you for checking… I ran the git reset --hard and then the git pull && npm install but shorter error now… not sure if I should just remove the files? Never had this problem before:

                      Not sure what I’ve done but when I run a git pull I now have a message that says I need to run “git commit -a” to fix the issues.

                      What would happen if I did that ? Would it overwrite the main branch, or just create my own version of that branch ? I don’t have a git account, so would that cause issues as well ?

                          removed those and now:

                          pi@raspberrypi_7:~/MagicMirror $ sudo git pull && npm install

                          CONFLICT (content): Merge conflict in modules/default/currentweather/README.md
                          Automatic merge failed; fix conflicts and then commit the result.

                          Perhaps I should just re-install it? I even removed the currentweather default module (directory and the files)…

                            With any of the default modules… If you made any changes to the .js files or the README.md files, AND, you would like to keep those changes… TRY THIS:

                            cut and paste any of the default modules from the MagicMirror directory to any other directory.
                            You also need to do the same for the package.json, package-lock.json, and your config.js file if there are any additional modules that have been added.

                            then do the ‘git pull $$ npm install’

                            when it is done, replace those files in the new MagicMirror that just got installed with the ones you saved from your old MagicMirror.

                            then do ‘npm rebuild’

                            It took a couple of times starting the MagicMirror to get all the changes to take…

                            this also fixes the currentweather module problem…

                            and the blank screen problem…

                              Thank your for the reply. I will give that a try… failing that I am going to re-install it…

                                Well, I couldn’t get it to work, so I just did a rebuild of the 2 mirrors. I keep a base build of the MM image anyway, so it only took an hour to recreate them both from scratch.

                                  So I reinstalled it, however now when the MagicMirror starts the screen is just black…

                                    @Bob said in Problem updating to v2.3.1:

                                    Not sure what I’ve done but when I run a git pull I now have a message that says I need to run “git commit -a” to fix the issues.

                                    What would happen if I did that ? Would it overwrite the main branch, or just create my own version of that branch ? I don’t have a git account, so would that cause issues as well ?

                                    I ran the “git commit -a”, exited that screen, then ran sudo git pull & npm install and it worked for me then…Had the same issues above before that
