What does “check.config” do?

It checks the config.js file

Ok, i’ve checked and corrected it with geanie and now the syntax is correct but it still doesn’t show it on mm

@Giarry88 open the developers window ctrl-shift-i on the keyboard, and select the console tab and scroll up to see any errors.

I’ve nstalled it in the Modules folders (outside of the Default folder, correct?)

says file not there

you can get rid of this one by creating an empty custom.css (my installation script does this)

:1 Refused to apply style from ‘http://localhost:8080/css/custom.css’ because its MIME type (‘text/html’) is not a supported stylesheet MIME type, and strict MIME checking is enabled

touch ~/MagicMirror/css/custom.css

so…
I created the custom.css (but I’ve added the command for removing the borders, because I had it in the main.css - yes…i know…my bad :grimacing_face: - also it seems I can’t remove the spacing at the top, but this is a ittle bit OT) now as you said it previously that error disappeared.

Now I have only

GET http://localhost:8080/modules/MMM-NewsFeedTicker//MMM-NewsFeedTicker.js net::ERR_ABORTED 404 (Not Found)
Error on loading script: modules/MMM-NewsFeedTicker//MMM-NewsFeedTicker.js

But this morning I’ve installed an other module (MMM-networrk-signal) in the same way and it is working properly

Load script: modules/MMM-network-signal//MMM-network-signal.js
Module registered: MMM-network-signal

I am confused…

EDIT

My mistake was that I didn’t put capital letters in the name of the folder (I didn’t think it would have mattered)…
Now I can see the red bar with “Loading” and in the console it keeps showing :

MMM-NewsFeedTicker - unknown notification, ignoring: CLOCK_SECOND
MMM-NewsFeedTicker - received notification: CLOCK_SECOND

linux is case sensitive… windows is not

look in the console where u start ed MagicMirror

if pm2, the use the pm2 logs --lines=100 command to view the logs…

the error more than likely is a bad url, ???

I don’t know why, when I closed and Opened again Magic Mirror, it wasn’t working at all; so I started with the backup of the config file and now it is working everything, ticker included. I think that I just needed to remove the default feed (especially the url - I was asking him to load the same feed on both modules -).
Now I only have an issue with the stuttering ticker (but I’ve read something about it so I will try solving it by looking at those posts).

Thanks again sdetweil, especially for your patience!
