error on v 2.18 update - magicmirror npm does not support Node.js v10.24.1

[karsten13]

@mrdondot

min. Version for node is v14, recommended v16. You have to update node.

@karsten13
after updating it (btw i thought it was already updated) i got this:

[sdetweil]

@mrdondot after upgrade node/npm

you need to redo the npm install of mm

cd ~/MagicMirror
rm -rf node_modules
rm package-lock.json
npm install

[MrDondoT]

thanks @sdetweil .
The npm install went well with no errors, thus on restart I can only have a black screen and 2 instances of mm

[sdetweil]

@mrdondot ok use pm2 delete 0 to remove 1

then pm2 logs --lines=50

to dump the logs so we can see what is going on.

if you did an upgrade then see this
