      Hey guys,

      i want to update my MM system from version 2.1.3 -> 2.4.x.

      It looks like i am to stupid for it -.-

      I am in the MagicMirror folder an try to make an GIT pull. I received an error immediatly.

      May you have an idea for this issue ?

      sudo git pull && npm install
      error: object file .git/objects/5d/fba0b834306cc81693307ab0d1bf24e798a46a is empty

        2 ideas:

        • in which folder are you trying to run the pull? It should be /MagicMirror/
        • do it without sudo rights

                try…

                npm rebuild
                from the MagicMirror directory

                then reboot your system

                    delete the file causing new error…

                    .git/objects/36/766f9a0089766d4a0e164f3f0b198dadcf60c4 is empty

                    Then rebuild again…

                    npm rebuild

                    then reboot again

                    if this doesn’t work, you may need to do the git pull && npm install again

                        Well, I am not sure what is happening…
                        My best guess is to delete the .git folder then redo the git pull && npm install

                          OR…
                          Rename your MagicMirror folder to MM-BAK

                          then git clone MagicMirror for a fresh install

                          Then move your modules folder, config.js, and custom.css files over to the fresh install

                          might also need to move the package.json and package-lock.json files from the bak to the fresh install

                          And, anytime I have dealt with anything like this, I always have to rebuild, or reboot, or both

                            Maybe this was the issue.

                              Yeah, it’s possible if the update was retrieved during that time.

                                  GEEZ!!!

                                  I literally just installed a fresh MagicMirror to an Ubuntu OS, and had zero issues.

                                  I did a manual install of Browserlist…

                                  npm install Browserlist@3.0 -g

                                  then I also did a manual install of PhantomJS…

                                  sudo npm insall PhantomJS@latest -g

                                  Then I made sure I had updated versions of npm, node, and electron

                                  npm install npm@latest -g
                                  npm install node@ latest -g
                                  sudo npm electron@latest -g

                                    I’m not using pi, so I don’t really know if this will help or not… could be different

                                      hmm… it looks like my system is broken. npm makes a lot of problems too.

                                      I decide to reset the systems completely. Fresh OS and a new MM installation. It was easier as to find the root cause. Now everythink is running up again.

                                      Thanks a lot for your ideas and your help
