new update/upgrade script, ready for testing

[sdetweil]

@bobwilliams Ok. Send me the log if u get a chance. Thx

@sdetweil I did run this the other day when I was having an issue with node_helper not found. It didn’t fix that, but another message you posted did. The upgrade worked fine, but may be worth adding that git checkout of the node_helper index file to the script as a quick fix.

[sdetweil]

@buzzkc Good idea. I can check if the file is present and restore it if not

[bobwilliams]

@sdetweil a few days ago I copied the image from a flash drive, now I restored it and everything repeats, again these files that he asks to save or not … if you say yes, the update does not work, if you say no then the mirror stops working

[sdetweil]

@bobwilliams i need to see the MagicMirror/installers/upgrade.log…

and also, open the developers window (ctrl-shift-i) and select the tab labebed ‘console’ and scroll up to find any errors…

also the pm2.log

[bobwilliams]

@sdetweil ok try to do tomorrow, today was a hard day very tired

[bobwilliams]

@sdetweil Everything has appeared to be simpler than we thought. I moved the files which were the obstacle on the way of working of your script to another folder, then updated the mirror using your script. After that I moved those files back and now mirror is working.

[sdetweil]

@bobwilliams What files? My script should handle it. So I want to understand.

[bobwilliams]

@sdetweil /MagicMirror/installers/mm.sh
/MagicMirror/modules/default/calendar/calendar.js
  /MagicMirror/modules/default/currentweather/currentweather.js
/MagicMirror/modules/default/weather/weather.js /MagicMirror/modules/default/weatherforecast/weatherforecast.js
/MagicMirror/package-lock.json
/MagicMirror/run-start.sh
when updating, your script asked to save these files or not. if I wrote yes, it was not updated, if I wrote no, the update went fine but the mirror stopped working. I just moved these files, updated the mirror, and put them back in place. and the mirror works

[sdetweil]

@bobwilliams Ok. I put a fix in for Save=yes. Save=No should replace them w local repo version…and then upgrade.

Will have to build test. Really want to see the upgrade log, and pm2 logs for why it stoppexy

[bobwilliams]

@sdetweil sent by mail

[sdetweil]

@bobwilliams got them thanks… you didn’t happen to save that ‘failing’ MagicMirror folder did you?

[bobwilliams]

@sdetweil no, it didn’t work out

[bobwilliams]

@sdetweil Have you looked at what was the problem?

[sdetweil]

@bobwilliams yes, the merge returns an error i don’t handle… but I don’t know what the error means…
so was hoping u had the folder saved, so I could get a copy to test with…

[sdetweil]

I have submitted this script as part of pull request 1789

@sdetweil Actually idk what the issue is…black screen even though all show online. Odd

[swvalenti]

@sdetweil I fixed the server issue and it shows online. But still get a black screen when start MM. So frustrating

[swvalenti]

@sdetweil I stand corrected I did not fix server issue…
