        what did you type?

        the command is

        cd ~/MagicMirror
npm start

        to run MM, you must start from the MagicMirror folder… not a module folder, not the users home folder…

        if you use pm2, it will issue the right commands from the right place

            i suspect you did not do the required install in the
            MagicMirror/modules/MMM-PrayerTime folder

            per the instructions

            Installation
Navigate into your MagicMirror's modules folder
execute git clone https://github.com/slametps/MMM-PrayerTime.git

**if this module does not run correctly,** try npm install async

              I am 110% sure I installed the module in the right directory. I always check before I execute it. I’ve just checked the directory, and the module repository is in the right place. I’m executing the ‘npm install async’ command now. Fingers crossed!

                  I opened an issue on the MMM-PrayerTime module github, for him to create a package.json file for this async dependency and let the system handle it

                    @sdetweil - as in, the files for that module is in the MM modules folder. Sorry if I’m using the wrong terminology.

                    So, after running the ‘npm install async’, it found three low vulnerabilities, which I’ve asked for them to be fixed.

                      @sdetweil - thanks. I think I’ve got it working. The module is finally showing in the MM dashboard. Thanks very much for the guidance, and @Mykle1.
