Complete Walkthrough - Install MagicMirror on a PC - Windows 7/10

@mykle1 FYI
Meanwhile I found the problem of port 8080, due to some malware on that PC, the proxi settings where modified, only option was to re-install OS. Lucky I had some backup so that didn’t took so long.
Now proxi settings are no longer hi-jacked and I can run MM normally.
Problem solved!

Ahh, Windows. I no longer use it for MM. I’m strictly a ubuntu 16.04 LTS guy now.

Hi. quick question. the MM work with the basic modules. as soon as i try to install a 3rd party module i have a syntax error. Checked and rechecked the code and there is no error. is there special thing to add code thant im not aware of

@djniuss from the MM folder do

npm run config:check

fix errors from top down

Other question.

is there a way to acces to mirror server from another device ( like the rpi does)

i have withelisted all ip. and cant seem to connect. i have created rules in the windows firewall and router and still nothing.

instead og localhost if i enter 0.0.0.0 i only have a black screen.

is this possible . im building a smaller mirror and would like to connnect to the mirror that i already have running.

Thanks

forgot to mention that i can acces the server from chrome on the cpu thats running the mirror

@djniuss said in Complete Walkthrough - Install MagicMirror on a PC - Windows 7/10:

instead og localhost if i enter 0.0.0.0 i only have a black screen.

When you try 0.0.0.0, is it in quotes?

        address: "0.0.0.0", // "localhost",
	port: 8080,
	ipWhitelist: [],
	language: "en",
	timeFormat: 12,
	units: "imperial",

[djniuss]

yes its in quote.

[sdetweil]

hm,… mine is like Mykle1’s

  address: "0.0.0.0", // Address to listen on, can be:
                        // - "localhost", "127.0.0.1", "::1" to listen on loopback interface
                        // - another specific IPv4/6 to listen on a specific interface
                        // - "", "0.0.0.0", "::" to listen on any interface
                        // Default, when address config is left out, is "localhost"
  port: 8086,
  ipWhitelist: [], // Set [] to allow all IP addresses
                           // or add a specific IPv4 of 192.168.1.5 :
                           // ["127.0.0.1", "::ffff:127.0.0.1", "::1", "::ffff:192.168.1.5"],
                           // or IPv4 range of 192.168.3.0 --> 192.168.3.15 use CIDR format :
                   

but u get a black screen? that sounds like two versions trying to run at the same time…
did u reboot?
