      I ran your raspberry.sh install script on a Raspberry Pi Zero W yesterday. I started with a fresh install of Rasbian. The script completed with some warnings, but the Magic Mirror started and seems to be running OK. What does this error mean? Should I try to fix it even though MagicMirror seems to be running OK?

      The errored log file was located at /home/pi/.npm/_logs/2020-04-14T22_35_02_257Z-debug.log

      Here is the snippet from the end:

        @RushHour99 that error is because some of the components used for the automated testing aren’t found. It’s ok.

        I need to recheck. I thought I had disabled trying to load those parts.

        All looks good

          @sdetweil Thanks for the reply. Magic Mirror does appear to be working just fine on my Pi Zero W. I only ran the install script. Should I run the upgrade script too?

            @RushHour99 no. Upgrade is for every 3 months when the next release comes out. the scripts are only for MagicMirror… not the base OS, or any modules.

              @RushHour99 looks like something changed between April 11 and April 15 in the npm tree, as it skipped the electron-chromdriver on the 11th and tries to install it today. is IS because of the specton library that is in the DEV tree, which i request to be skipped with --only=prod

              so much fun…
              I opened an issue against the scripts
              https://github.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts/issues/5
              to track it

                    @Mykle1 yeh, they updated the repo version in 2.10, and were completely removed in 2.11 to an outside repo…

                      I got a new Pi Zero W, so I start a fresh install with a raspbian lite stretch (2019-04-08 version) but I got this error:

                      searching on electron: https://github.com/electron/electron/releases/tag/v6.0.0 I can’t find armv6 version.

                      Whats the problem?
                      my pi is too old?
                      I got the wrong raspbian version?
                      thanks

                        I think electron is discontinued for raspberry pi zero, a few months ago I see a post in this forum talking about that. Now I can’t find that post.
