Blank Screen on Pi 1 after successful Install
-
I’m also having this issue. I was getting the intro/setup your config screen. I got the donfig setup and wrestled with file permissions to get it copied. Relaunched and now I’ve got a black screen. The source of the page has the Magic Mirror stuff in it. Don’t know what’s wrong. Any advice?
-
@chase what pi version? Are you running it in server mode? Any JavaScript errors in console? What browser?
-
I’m using an original model A. It is running in server mode, no javascript errors besides one below the don’t edit line in the config file. Any browser. Tried from multiple devices including the Pi itself. Thanks!

Which node.js Version is installed? Maybe this is the problem.
-
v0.10.29
-
Try a newer node version.
Here is a blog post (unfortunately in german) how to install the latest version. Deinstall the node before you install the newer version.

Thanks for the blog post! I’m now on 4.2.1, but I’m still getting a black screen after a boot. Here’s a picture from chrome. I would attach a picture of the actual thing, but it’s a monitor with a black screen.
I really appreciate all the help

Should the url contain the port?
192.168.0.7:8080

Just got back home and gave that a shot. I get a refused to connect error there.

Maybe i found the problem. I am working on a FHEM module for MM. I changed the
config.js
and had a wrong module name in it. After reload the screen was black.
@chase please check yourconfig.js
for spelling or json format errors.
