MM fails to start after update

[requiemmg]

@sdetweil Not starting. I guess there was some error during the upgrade instalaltion, but it scrolled so fast that I could not read it.

@requiemmg installers/upgrade.log has the processing

and if u use pm2, then pm2 stop all

cd MagicMirror
npm start >somefile.txt
wait

ctrl-c to stop MM

then somefile.txt has the messages

[sdetweil]

@requiemmg it could also be the mode/npm versions, which upgrade currently doesn’t fix.

short workaround

rename mm folder to MagicMirror.save

mv MagicMirror MagicMirror.save

run the installer script which DOES check and upgrade node/npm
erase the new MagicMirror folder

rm -rf MagicMirror

rename the old one back

mv MagicMirror.save MagicMirror

the run upgrade again with force at the end instead of apply

I will fix upgrade.

@requiemmg I just posted changes to the upgrade script to check and do the node/npm upgrade and to check and fix any modules needed the missing libraries…
both only ACTUALLY done for apply/force, but describe what would be done otherwise

u can use it now by using force to reupgrade already upgraded…

@sdetweil Thank you. Took me a while to find the time but now I apllied your fix (mentioned above, saw your updated script afterwars only) and had to reinstall “request”-library to some addons.

Now working.
