I did revert to the last working backup and tried your update script. And here it failed updating with same error message in the log file.

Should I delete all the files in the error file as I did?

[sdetweil]

@andyyy I’ll check out my script

untracked may be the cause.

wonder how u got the files, but not in git…

but the black screen isn’t because of those

[sdetweil]

@andyyy just do git stash
or delete them if u don’t know what they are.

then try again

@andyyy can u send me the ~/MagiMirror/installers/upgrade.log

| doah, not install , upgrade log… yeesh

my email is the same user ID at gmail

[sdetweil]

I can recreate the problem in my script

I bet u tried the develop branch. and switched back to master, and these files aren’t in master on 2.15, but the final versions are different than the develop versions.

Solved for now :)

I did:

sudo git fetch --all
sudo git reset --hard origin/master
sudo git pull origin master

My system is still very fragile. When do npm install after that, the screen turn black after reboot.

@andyyy said in Update from 2.15 to 2.16:

the screen turn black after reboot.

again, this si because libraries in 2.15 were removed in 2.16 and some modules didn’t document their requirements properly…

find the MM startup messages (npm start or pm2 logs)
and look for ‘module not found’

I REALLY hate reset --hard…

[sdetweil]

@andyyy I uploaded fixes to the upgrade script to handle this…

Hi!
I did the upgrade to my system to 2.16

Uploading upgrade.log with 600 lines is not possible… because of file format.

After reboot I have only the mouse in the middle of the screen but MM is not working.

Also I’m not able to get a connection wit ma Web-Browser.

Raspberry itself is accessible via SSH.

Any idea?

@bdream yes look at the mm startup messages
we call this the black screen
