      I was able to get MM setup but then when I upgraded Node I’m now receiving the following error when doing

      sudo npm start
      

      Here is the error that is returned after I run this via Remote Desktop terminal

      pi@raspberrypi:~ $ cd MagicMirror
      pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $ sudo npm start

      magicmirror@2.7.1 start /home/pi/MagicMirror
      sh run-start.sh

      No protocol specified

      npm ERR! This is probably not a problem with npm. There is likely additional logging output above.

        @Natacha now that u upgraded node, you have to go back and redo

        npm install
        

        in the MM folder and all module folders if they have a package.json file

          @Natacha said in Node Install Issues:

          sudo npm start

          You should not be using sudo npm start

          Simply, npm start in your MagicMirror directory. :-)

          Follow @sdetweil instructions first.
