      @alyx ok, add debug:true

      to my module def in config.js

      (stop any pm2 version running, pm2 stop all)

      then start MM like this
      npm start >somefile.txt

      there are all kinds of interesting problems with other modules, but none on the base that I know of.

      send me the somefile.txt and the defaults. js from the MMM-Config folder… it is constructed from the modules installed

      same userid as here at gmail

          @alyx said in Are you tired of editing config.js, or have trouble doing it, see my new module:

          sudo npm install

          NEVER EVER use sudo on any MM command…

          delete my module folder and git clone and then npm install

            @sdetweil So I did as you said and the npm run is stuck loading for a while and the text file is empty.

            Now I’m running in server mode if that matters? I used npm run server >somefile.txt

              @alyx but you used sudo, which messed things up… permissions as root when we need user level…

              please delete my module folder, and reinstall without sudo…

              you MAY have messed up the rest of the MM files too…

              linux has very strict permissions

              the postinstall failed which moves files to the right places…

                @sdetweil I used sudo because some package files reported back errors and that I dont have the required permissions?

                  @alyx probably cause you used sudo before…

                  so, I’d start over again… delete the MM folder

                  and run my install script, then add my module and npm install in its folder…

                    @sdetweil ok I flash reinstalled MM (worryingly good at it now…) and it seems to be working :)

                    The config pops up on the webpage correctly and all.

                    Thanks Sam!
