    @taztrk make sure to check your web inspector (use the node serveronly function and a browser of your choice - there should be a thread about that somewhere) for errors.

    We're all stories in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?

      I tried to follow the HOw to Troubleshoot forum. I downloaded firebug and did node serveronly and this is the result:

      pi@raspberrypi:/var/www/html/MagicMirror $ node serveronly
      module.js:440
          throw err;
          ^
      
      Error: Cannot find module 'express'

      I opened MM on firefox and used firebug but i didn´t see anything that looked like an error.

            @taztrk please use Markdown on code snippets so it is easier to read :)
            Looks like your OS or node version is not supported by Electron. Try using Raspbian especially if you do not have much experience.
