Blackscreen after update to v.2.8.0

@Blackmirror Hi. Are there any errors in pm2 logs?

Blackmirror

Thanks.

I have only npm install at Magicmirror not for the modules.

Now it was running fine.

@Blackmirror great!.. thanks for the feedback…

I am working on an upgrade script to do all this for users.

how many modules did u have to npm install for?

I am having the same issue but doing npm install in all of the modules folders doesn’t resolve it. Any other thoughts?

@potts-mike Are there any issues in your config.js? Can you run npm run config:check and see if there are errors?

potts-mike

I can, should I run that from the config file?

I will say though that it worked before the upgrade and I tried the config.js.sample file and it didnt work.

@potts-mike - Run it from the command line in the /home/pi/MagicMirror folder.

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 :)
pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $

@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…”

pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $ npm start dev

> magicmirror@2.8.0 start /home/pi/MagicMirror
> sh run-start.sh "dev"

MagicMirror will not quit, but it might be a good idea to check why this happened. Maybe no internet connection?
