Problems with Config.js on Pi4 BlackScreen

[sdetweil]

@dazza120 which one does pm2 want to use? I am not near my computer so can’t get the list of pm2 commands.

pm2 – help

Did u edit the path in mm.sh?

[dazza120]

@sdetweil no i mearly placed it in the magicmirror folder path. its set to Cd /MagicMirror folder already and pm2 -help isnt displaying a list of pm2 commands

[sdetweil]

@dazza120 inside needs to be

cd /home/pi/MagicMirror
DISPLAY=:0 npm start

[dazza120]

@sdetweil changed it what now mate

[sdetweil]

@dazza120 did u try pm2 now?

[dazza120]

@sdetweil pm2 start or the dev thing?

[sdetweil]

@dazza120

Let’s get npm start dev working

[dazza120]

@sdetweil still nothing in the dev console mate, i can start the whole build over again but everytime i go to change the config it doesnt work

[sdetweil]

@dazza120 ok, start again… change the config?

So, you install a module. If it has package.json file you run npm install in the module folder

Then edit config.js and add
Module structure.

{
  module:'somename',
  config: {
  }
},

To the modules array.

If think syntax error, from the MagicMirror folder do,

npm  run config:check

[dazza120]

@sdetweil yep im cd-ing into the module folder and then running npm install, ill start over again and go through it slowly but ive probably built the mirror 20 from scratch no issues before with config but ive altered it too much now thinking that was it so its from scratch now but copying back the old config should have sorted any of those issues, does your installer work?
