And of course it didn’t work now when I tried to switch back to default calendar module and then back to the other calendar module…

@kvicksson said in Blank mm after update:
so don’t have to bother right now?
As long as the errors are no fatal errors that do not prevent the MagicMirror from starting or prevent a certain module from working right, you might chose to ignore them.
But the problem is, that when you add something new or update something existing, it becomes more and more difficult to debug and/or correct in case of problems.When you do this:
$ pm2 flush $ pm2 restart mm $ pm2 logs --lines 100
what is the first error you see ?
Perhaps you post the first 50 to 100 lines of the log.But only if you want to spend some time on it, when not that’s fine too.

@evroom actually no errors like I got before…

I really appreciate you want to look into my errors, I’m not too good on this :)

Doesn’t look too bad.
Probably you saw the previous errors in your log output, that it is why flushing (pm2 flush) sometimes cannot hurt.In order to know a bit about your environment, can you post the output of the following commands ?
I am assuming you are using a Raspberry Pi$ cat /proc/device-tree/model $ lsb_release -a $ npm --version $ node --version $ pm2 --version $ cat /boot/config.txt | egrep -v '^$|^#|^\['
I also would suggest to see if npm shows any errors:
$ cd ~/MagicMirror $ npm audit
In my case a
$ npm audit fix
solved the dependency issues it found.
Perhaps others have different ideas, but as a hobbyist, I would take these steps first myself.

The npm audit warnings do not create any problems in running the mirror as far as I know. They also do not show up in the pm2 logs.
I would even be very careful as an inexperienced user to do that. “Fixing” these npm warnings on the root MM install could break the whole mirror (not the mirror itself of course :-)). Especially if you mess with the electron/chromium dependencies. -
@evroom got an error on the
egrep

Forgot to escape the [, try this:
cat /boot/config.txt | egrep -v '^$|^#|^\['
EDIT: Did not forget to escape it, it is this shitty forum that removes it.
There needs to a backslash

The npm audit itself suggests to fix it using the fix option.
I personally never had any issues with this command, but perhaps I was lucky till now.
Sometimes it cannot resolve an issue, but it never broke anything.But, if it appears to be that dangerous, then indeed it is perhaps to refrain from it when not really necessary.

I saw this error once for a specific module.
Needed a small code change.
Will try to find what is was. -
This is a command to list all your modules that are in the config.js and which ones are enabled/disabled:
$ cat ~/MagicMirror/config/config.js | egrep 'module:|disabled' | sed -e 's/^[ \t]*//'
