      Hi all, I’m new here so please help me out.
      I’m building my first mirror. Got a new Pi 3B+ and installed everything from scratch. sound and usb mic is working. I’ve added MMM-AssistantMk2 & Hotword with basic default settings. The problem is it will only run in serveronly mode and it works when I use my browser.

      But when i use npm start I get the following error:
      pi@raspi:~/MagicMirror $ npm start

      magicmirror@2.6.0 start /home/pi/MagicMirror
      sh run-start.sh

      MagicMirror will not quit, but it might be a good idea to check why this happened. Maybe no internet connection?
      If you think this really is an issue, please open an issue on GitHub: https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/issues
      Launching application.

        For starters, please use the markdown features when posting code & logs.
        Secondly, did you take the error message’s advice and run npm rebuild in the MMM-AssistantMk2 folder? Did it help?

            @warmyster said in Can't start MM as kiosk only server:

            App threw an error during load
            Error: Failed to load gRPC binary module because it was not installed for the current system
            Expected directory: electron-v2.0-linux-arm-glibc

            It seems that some module inside MMM-AssistantMk2 is compiled against electron v2.0. If above suggestion does not work I would recommend installing the whole module again. Delete the folder, do a git clone, git pull and npm install again.

                        @warmyster if it is still about this module, maybe @Sean can help since it’s his module
