You need to update npm and node

Thanks for the response. How do I do that? Which folder should I update it in?

@philmavedzenge in your home directory execute following two commands:

sudo npm  install -g n
sudo n latest

This installs the latest node version

Edit: added sudo

[DJBOOB66]

Ok you need to find a working node and npm for all module if you have Bugs Google Aisstant v3 then it is best to check the module first GA v3 needs,
Node: v12.x.x upto v14.x.x
npm: = v6.14.15 (some trouble with v7.x)
I suggest trying.
Do in this order.

sudo npm cache clean -f
sudo npm install -g n
sudo n 14.0

now check npm with npm -v
If 6.14.15 do nothing more but over 7.x use below

sudo npm install -g npm@6.14.15

@djboob66 you’re right…I forgot that there might be potential issues with the latest version. Thanks for the correction!

@philmavedzenge : Generally I’d recommend to use @sdetweil update script when updating to a new MM version. (see here) As you already updated to 2.17.1, use this command with force at he end instead of apply

bash -c "$(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts/master/upgrade-script.sh)" force

Sam‘s script checks, if the correct node and npm versions are installed and updates them accorgingly if necessary.
