sudo apt-get update

After the sudo apt-get update again i get following error again:
(connection via SSH from Mac / my OS is Raspbian Jessie)

pi@magicmirror:~ $ cd MagicMirror
pi@magicmirror:~/MagicMirror $ npm start

I lost count on how many times this has come up already. You can not start the mirror using that command when you are remotely SSHd into the rpi. The rpi simply does not know what monitor to use, yours, or the one connected to it. You have to tell it that:

DISPLAY=:0 npm start

Use the correct command, and then figure out what the problems are.

With me still the same error synonymous with the command DISPLAY =: 0 npm start but the same error

@moris do you tried it from the terminal on raspberry or via Mac or Windows? Try this command only in raspberrys terminal…

On the raspi terminal

[moris]

I log in cd MagicMirror
In cd MagicMirror write DISPLAY=:0 npm start is this korrekt?

[leisi]

@moris yes, my mirror starts with these commands on raspberrys terminal
