      Hello, I attempted to update my MagicMirror today via a git pull, and ever since then, my MM will not display. Here is the Log:

      pi@raspberrypi:~ $ cd MagicMirror
pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $ npm start

magicmirror@2.16.0 start /home/pi/MagicMirror
electron js/electron.js

/home/pi/MagicMirror/node_modules/electron/index.js:14
    throw new Error('Electron failed to install correctly, please delete node_modules/electron and try installing again')
    ^

      Thanks.

          @sdetweil Yes. I read that a little bit after I did the pull, so, could the issue be that I didnt do it right after? I did try to run MM again before I read that you needed to do the install…

            @achilles sometimes the module need refresh too…

            AND

            we have been having a bunch of module failures because we removed a couple dead libraries that modules didn’t document they used

            So, where u start MM

            npm start
            or pm2 (if pm2 then use the command pm2 logs --lines=100)

            look at the startup messages and see if u see

            module not found

              @sdetweil I executed that command, and it returned a LOT of results.

                @achilles (a lot or lines ) aka 100

                So, this is another case where to update didn’t work well… as electron didn’t get upgraded, but messed up …

                SO…

                ugly recovery

                rename the MagiMirror/modules/default folder to default2
                rename the MM folder to something else

                install MM again
                (Use my script) see https://github.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts
                verify it works

                then copy the savedMagicMirror/modules folder over the MagicMirror folder

                cp -r -p ~/oldMMname/modules ~/Magicmirror/modules

                and then copy your old config,js to the new MM/config folder

                test it out

                Now, its still possible to have the module not found problem.

                I am going to bed now, but in case

                if u find module not found, take the name (valid-url, request) and do npm install ??? while in the MM folder

                my upgrade script MIGHT have helped avoid all this… (I say might, cause I haven’t seen it myself, but I never upgrade manually)

                      @sdetweil Thank you so much for your help on this. I ran your script, and the MagicMirror was working minus my modules, of course. I copied over my config file, and only three of my modules displayed. I rebooted my raspberry pi, and then MagicMirror would not display at all. Here are the logs:

                        @achilles I would go thru each module folder and check for package.json file

                        if present do an npm install in each such module folder.

                        I would use npm start in the MagicMirror folder (and ctrl-q on mm screen) til u get it all working, then use pm2 to start

                        so pm2 stop all
                        then do above, then pm2 start 0
                        then reboot

                          @sdetweil Thank you…quick question, as I have followed your above steps…what if the module does not have the package.json file? Should I continue with those that do and then to the pm2 to start, or do I need to go back and do something with those modules that do not have the package.json file before I npm start?

                            @achilles you can look in the modules without a package.json, to see if they have a node_helper.js, and if they have one, check for require(‘???’)

                            where ??? is NOT node_helper

                            if they have those types of require, then they are dependent on mm providing the library

                            request and valid-url
                            are two we know modules didn’t document.

                              @sdetweil When I run npm start, I just get a black screen. Does this mean every one of my modules is wrong?

                                  @sdetweil Okay, so when it says 'no helper found for the module, it is missing the node_helper,js, correct?

                                      @sdetweil Okay, I have cleaned up my config and I am now slowly adding back modules one by one and testing. I might not finish this tonight, but I still appreciate your help on all of this.

                                        @sdetweil I went ahead and added all of my modules back one on one, and they are working. Whew. Now, when I go back out to the raspberrypi prompt in the terminal, and put in,

                                        pm2 start MagicMirror, it says it is online, but it does not start. It says it is online, but it does not start.

                                        When I npm start from that folder, however, everything is working.

                                            @sdetweil Thank you so very much! It looks like that was the last piece of the puzzle! I think it is working totally now. And, believe it or not, the thing that sent me down this entire path in the first place, the PushBulletNotifications module, is now working, too!

                                            I will see if anything strange happens over the next few hours, but I think we are good now!

                                            Thanks again!
