Read the statement by Michael Teeuw here.
v2.18.0 update gave black screen, then nothing.
-
@richard238 ok, lets start back somewhere
save your config.js
copy the sample back to config.js
and start
this should work …
-
@richard238 i copied your config above to my system
and it starts ok…my node/npm are
node -v
v16.1.0
npm -v
7.24.2so, lets try that , we will use the node version of node version manager (nvm) called n
# install n globally npm i n -g # install node version 16.1.0 n i 16.1.0 # use the setup path from node version install PATH="$PATH" # verify node and npm versions node -v npm -v -
run those from
pi@magicmirror:~/MagicMirror $or
pi@magicmirror:~ $
Or, does it not matter?
-
@richard238 does not matter
not MM specific
-
@richard238 did u try the initial config.js
-
No, took me a while to restore one back from archive, but it’s there now, ready to go.

@sdetweil
No, took me a while to restore one back from archive, but it’s there now, ready to go.in the config folder is the config.js.sample file which is what I wanted you to use
just to eliminate other things,but
cd ~/MagicMirror npm startmay have to clean and nom install again as node version changed…

It’s still throwing the log.log error!

@richard238 ok, fun times…
so, do
cd ~ mv MagicMirror MagicMirror.save git clone https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror.git cd MagicMirror npm install --only=prod cd config cp config.js.sample config.js cd ..then npm start
-
Clean install - works perfectly! :)

@richard238 ok!.. run this to get rid of the sandbox problem
bash -c "$(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts/master/fixsandbox)"then
cd ~/MagicMirror/modules # save the new default modules folder mv default default.new cd .. # copy all the modules from old install (incl default) preserve ownership and dates, need sudo to copy git info sudo cp -r -p ~/MagicMirror.save/modules/* modules cd modules # remove the copied default modules rm -rf default # restore the saved default mv default.new defaultcopy your full function config.js to MagicMirror/config
and try it outcd ~/MagicMirror npm start -

I have to leave shortly Sam.
Thank you for all your help with this today, I’ll try again tomorrow.
Richard.

@richard238 ok
you forgot the cd …
cd .. # copy all the modules from old install (incl default) preserve ownership and dates, need sudo to copy git info sudo cp -r -p ~/MagicMirror.save/modules/* modules -
Trying to rename config.js to sample,
Error when getting information for file “/home/pi/MagicMirror/config/config.js”: No such file or directory Error renaming file /home/pi/MagicMirror/config/config.js: No such file or directoryYet I can see it, I can query it for permissions…
Back tomorrow.
Richard. -
@richard238 said in v2.18.0 update gave black screen, then nothing.:
Error when getting information for file “/home/pi/MagicMirror/config/config.js”
you need to copy from save
cd ~/MagicMirror.save/config cp -p config.js ~/Magicmirror/config -
Good morning Sam.
Tried that late yesterday, and yes, it works.
And this morning, I copiedcustom.cssfrom
/home/pi/MagicMirror.save/cssto
/home/pi/MagicMirror/cssThis too is working perfectly.
Is there anything else to do, housekeeping maybe, or is that it now?
-
@richard238 if everything is running ok then I think you are done, and can delete the
MagicMirror.save folder -
Ok, I’ll do that then.
Do we know what the cause of all this was, was it something to do with a mismatch in versions of node and npm?
-
@richard238 no idea what caused it.
there clearly was an error somewhere in the upgrade process, maybe reported and missed, or unreported.
but can u send me the MagicMirror.save/installers/upgrade.log
