      THe config file does not contain syntax errors.

      pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $ npm run config:check
      
      > magicmirror@2.8.0 config:check /home/pi/MagicMirror
      > node tests/configs/check_config.js
      
      Checking file...  /home/pi/MagicMirror/config/config.js
      Your configuration file doesn't contain syntax errors :)

        @potts-mike ok, then do

        npm start dev
        

        Or

        Ctrl-shift-i   if already running
        

        And in the developers window, select the console tab, and scroll up to find any errors. Red text usually.

          I know that the last thing it says it is launching the app but a white screen with the developer console opens with the error “Dev tools was disconnected from the page…”

          MagicMirror will not quit, but it might be a good idea to check why this happened. Maybe no internet connection?
          If you think this really is an issue, please open an issue on GitHub: https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/issues
          Launching application.

            @potts-mike i get the same with the pi4, the npm installs on some modules are killing the mirror. i think its safe to link all of these threads into one, ive put out a request for the dev of one module, i have no idea if any other module that i will put on the mirror will do the same i can only take it one step at a time, the affected module is mmm-nest-status.

              @dazza120 mmm-nest-status does not have a package.json file,
              so you should NOT do an npm install in that modules folder
