Please help

darrene

have you tried a sudo apt-get update ?
It might be worth giving that a try - afterwards, reboot then try re-running npm start again

After the sudo apt-get update again i get following error again:

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.

@KirAsh4 oh fucking, yes, you´re right, thanks very much for your help.

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

leisi

@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

moris

By me the same error list. Somewhere is an error or is not installed what can it be?

moris

So now I have pixel aufpspielen and behold there because it works. Now I have to install module sorry for the stupid question but how do I get it? On the readme page is the man config / config.js must open and should enter only where is the config.js? And how should I enter? Can you give me an example for clock?

bhepler

@moris The basic installation of MagicMirror includes a sample config.js file. It’s located at ~/MagicMirror/config/config.sample.js

If you copy or rename that file to config.js that should help get you started. cp ~/MagicMirror/config/config.sample/js ~/MagicMirror/config/config.js Once you have it copied, you can restart your mirror and it should use that simple config.js to run the mirror software.

Installing other modules is pretty simple. Navigate to the modules directory: cd ~/MagicMirror/modules and then clone the module repository git clone [module url]. Follow the directions at the GitHub repository for that module in case there is anything special about installing that module.
