Normally a ‘true’ versus true would not cause a black screen
u don’t know how the module code might fail…
which is what causes the blackscreen to begin with -

Tried the module myself.

Indeed a black screen.
Now how to help the girl from Stråvalla ? -

0|mm | Whoops! There was an uncaught exception…seems odd that there would be two invocations of these modules…
but as a test, in MagicMirror/config/config.js add
disabled: true,
to both those modules, and restart mm and see what happens
-
missing a required node package ‘del’
no package.json to inform the user
-
warning, warning… copy and save
MagicMirror/modules/node_modules/node_helper (folder, which contains index.js)
then
cd ~/MagicMirror/modules/mmm-weatherchart npm install del
check for a missing
MagicMirror/modules/node_modules/node_helper folder
and if so, copy it backi opened an issue with mmm-weatherchart

I have only one mmm-weatherchart module present.
When disabled everything is fine.
However, I forgot to remove the single quotes, as I just copy/pasted the config from the thread.
Corrected it, but now I get even stronger things.0|mm | WARNING! Could not load config file. Starting with default configuration. Error found: Error: Cannot find module 'del'
I do not have any string with ‘del’ in my config :worried_face:
-
@evroom see my prior most about the missing module

I was typing while you answered.
Will have a look at it and try it out. -
The module is running now, but I get this error:
0|mm | Downloading weather map with signal: FETCH_MAP From URL: www.yr.no/place/Germany/Bavaria/Nuremberg/meteogram.png 0|mm | Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '/home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/mmm-weatherchart/cache/map-1567097174409.png'

Then I read somewhere there is a clone of this module that is more recent, so I tried that:
https://github.com/szech/mmm-weatherchart
Same result: module runs but no file in the cache dir.
When opening the URL in the browser, it does show the picture that I do not see on my screen.Oh boy/girl, thought it was a simple syntax thingy in config.js …
-
the module doesn’t work, but doesn’t kill MagicMirror anymore…
