          Hello everyone,

          3months later, I hope it’s not too late :)

          @AxLed i’m trying to use “node serveronly” but have this error :
          WARNING! Could not validate config file. Please correct syntax errors. Starting with default configuration.

          0_1539678763897_Capture d’écran 2018-10-16 à 10.31.27.png

          I followed @Mykle1 tutorial to create default config.js but this not works.

          Any idea ? (My internet connection works)

          Thanks.

            Your config.js might have some misspell or wrong syntax.

              My config.js is by default :D
              I just changed “en” by “fr”.

              I’ll try to find config.js on Git and come back to you.

              Thanks.

              EDIT :

              I downloaded the latest config.js from : https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/blob/master/config/config.js.sample
              And not works :'(

                  I can bet you have missed comma after language:"fr". 95% of syntax error was that thing in my case. :D

                      Did you change the name of the config file from ‘config.js.sample’ to ‘config.js’ ?

                        @justjim1220 Yeah of course :)
                        I followed @Mykle1 tutorial.

                        EDIT :

                        If can help, I’m using VirtualBox on MAC with UBUNTU 16.04 LTS
