mmpm connection to MagicMirror failed

Kab

Hi all,

I just started using MagicMirror and wanted to use the package manager mpmm with it.

MagicMirror has been installed via the MagicMirrorOS on a RaspberryPi
I can see the MagicMirror output on the screen connected to the Pi and via the URL (192.168.2.76:8080)
I installed mpmm via

sudo apt install libffi-dev nginx-full -y
python3 -m pip install --upgrade --no-cache-dir mmpm
mmpm --guided-setup
echo 'export PATH="$PATH:$HOME/.local/bin"' >> ~/.bashrc

I can access the mpmm GUI but it is showing “Unable to retrieve active modules”
my mmpm settings are:

    MMPM_IS_DOCKER_IMAGE: false
    MMPM_MAGICMIRROR_DOCKER_COMPOSE_FILE: /home/pi/magicmirror/run/docker-compose.yml
    MMPM_MAGICMIRROR_PM2_PROCESS_NAME:
    MMPM_MAGICMIRROR_ROOT: /home/pi/magicmirror
    MMPM_MAGICMIRROR_URI: http://192.168.2.76:8080

Alsp a mmpm mm-ctl --status shows that it failed to connect to MagicMirror. At least I am not aware that I use pm2.

The mmpm log file shows a Connection to namespace /mmpm was rejected:

What could be wrong? Is the MMPM_MAGICMIRROR_ROOT correct for the MagicMirrorOS installation?

Thanks for reading that far,
Kab

@kab

you should check for errors when loading the GUI in the browser, CTRL+SHIFT+I opens then console.

Kab

Thanks @karsten13

The debug console on the mmpm shows an error that it couldn’t find a favicon and several source map Errors (as Warnings) like :

Does anything of this makes sense to you?

Or can it be the installation procedure? I installed the Docker-based MagicMirrorOS. Do I need to install the mmpm also via the Docker route?

not really … never tested this setup.

Would try to run with 2 containers, setup here.

You have already all the files in ~/magicmirror/run/ folder, just save the content of docker-compose.yml (only if you changed something) and then cp ~/magicmirror/run/rpi_mmpm.yml ~/magicmirror/run/docker-compose.yml and restart the container.

Kab

Hi @karsten13

I did the cp ~/magicmirror/run/rpi_mmpm.yml ~/magicmirror/run/docker-compose.yml and reboot but got a black screen for the MagicMirror. So I replaced docker-compose.yml by the original file and rebooted again but the screen is still black.
I don’t know much about docker containers. I tried docker exec -it mm bash and it opened as usual.
What else is changed after reboot with the other container?

@kab

nothing

You can look into these yaml files, it`s all text.

You can see which containers are running with docker ps and may something is in the logs docker logs mm.

It takes some time pulling new images (this is done after a reboot).

Kab

Hi @karsten13

docker ps shows

and the first error in the log is

@kab

/home/node/.npm/_logs/2021-10-29T20_22_53_399Z-debug.log

the file is in the container, after executing docker exec -it mm bash you are in the container and then you should be able to see this file.

But the whole thing is strange.

You could reset the setup by

stop the container: navigate to ~/magicmirror/run and run docker-compose down
test there is no container running with docker ps
navigate to home directory executing cd
rename magicmirror folder with mv magicmirror magicmirror-old
reboot your pi

While starting the now missing magicmirror folder will be recreated from scratch.

Hi @karsten13

Thanks, that helped. I could go back to the previous setup.
mmpm still doesn’t work, though. I think I installed it wrong but need to dig deeper.
If I just ssh on the PI I can use mmpm but If I go into the mm container with docker exec -it mm bash it cannot find the mmpm command. Now I need to figure out how to remove my mpmm installation.
