MM Not Displaying after update

@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.
(because it just worked) -
@sdetweil When I run npm start, I just get a black screen. Does this mean every one of my modules is wrong?
-
@achilles no. look at the messages
-
@sdetweil Okay, so when it says 'no helper found for the module, it is missing the node_helper,js, correct?
-
@achilles no. helper is option, so that is ok
-
@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.
-
@achilles I have seen a few systems that have trouble w pm2.
run the fixuppm2 script from my site (last in the list)

@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!
