Library error after full reinstallation (full version Raspbian and MagicMirror version 2.5.0)

@jevanha said in Library error after full reinstallation (full version Raspbian and MagicMirror version 2.5.0):

it was really required that I completly reinstall the Raspbian pi 3B+ sd card. Format, first install the full Rasbian latest version. After that I run update & upgrade and also the firmware update. Then I searched and found the MagicMirror installer I used before:

Re: Unable to install dependencies - npm not found

With Rasbian of 2018-11-13, I had the same issue. So I install only npm,

sudo apt-get install npm
sudo npm install -g npm@latest

Also I used the pre-built node which is 8.x in the latest version of Rasbian.
While I install, I made a video and please check https://youtu.be/UBgH5hejYtM.

Thanks,

@jevanha Getting the same error on my second MM, haven’t fiddled around with it much yet though. Will let you know when I have looked at it. 😄

Did a full reinstall last week. Last version os contains node, but misses npm. After installing npm the mm install script worked. I had to delete the MagicMirror directory which was kept from the first failed install

This needs a script to check for npm and node, and install right version

After completly reinstalling MagicMirror 250 works. Thank you for your wonderfull documented installation manual.

Couple things:

• Please use the Markdown features of the board when posting code and logs.
• I would advise against using the Magic Mirror installation script at this time. It hasn’t been tested as well as the rest of the system. Perform a manual installation for better results.
• Please remember to mark this topic as solved.

Second this.

For anyone who comes across this error:

/home/pi/MagicMirror/node_modules/electron/dist/electron: /lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libc.so.6: version GLIBC_2.27’ not found (required by /home/pi/MagicMirror/node_modules/electron/dist/electron) npm ERR! code ELIFECYCLE npm ERR! errno 1 npm ERR!

It may be caused by npm trying to install electron v4.0.0, this version has some reference errors on the Pi: https://github.com/electron/electron/issues/16205 and a lower version (v3.0.13) should be used.
