      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
