      Check your

      mopidy.conf

      located at:

      ~/.config/mopidy/mopidy.conf
      

      Look for this section:

      [http]
      enabled = true
      hostname = 127.0.0.1
      port = 6680
      static_dir =
      zeroconf = Mopidy HTTP server on $hostname
      allowed_origins =
      csrf_protection = true
      

      Take note of the hostname part.
      If your’s looks like the above instead of using localhost in the url, use the ip address or host name of the mirror.

      Examples:
      mirror.local:8080/modules/test/mopidy.html
      or
      10.x.x.x:8080/modules/test/mopidy.html

      I tested the code you posted on pastebin and it works as expected for me.
      Only tested using the hostname of the Mirror from external browser. Not locally on the machine.

        I was able to solve that problem.
        MPD port was double busy. Apparently 2 instances of Mopidy were running.

        Now the module MMM-MPD runs under a few specials:

        During the installation the folder name has to be changed according to the config file.
        The config file value maxRows must not be 0!
        The display will only update after a song change!

        It was hard to find this specifics, but I thank everyone for the help!

            Something like this happens to me, but my module is from user coderpussy @github , pretty new fork, maybe I got some failure from moodeaudio devs, but I dont think, so anyway here is some of my errors.

              @dnj0104 there is probably more to the error message this also happens when there is some library required by a module not found at startup

              u can also run

              npm run config:check 
              

              to review any syntax errors in the config.js file

                or in magicmirror/modules/mpd-module ?

                Thinks the whole module has to be rebuilt…

                      @dnj0104 ok, so the error that causes the default config to load is caused by some other problem.

                      missing module, or some other failure

                      can u show the MM startup messages (from the window where you do npm start)

                      a module consists of the folder name

                      MMM-MPD
                      

                      and its main js file

                      MMM-MPD.js
                      

                      and inside MMM-MPD.js is the module register statement

                      Module.register("MMM-MPD", {
                      

                      and in config.js

                        {
                           module: 'MMM-MPD',
                      

                      this causes MM to look for the folder, filename and file contents in that order

                      SO, it SOUNDS like from a prior post, that the REAL name is

                      mod_client
                      

                      (so there must be the right folder name, file name and file contents of
                      mod_client

                      if so, you can rename the folder (mv is the rename command on linux)
                      then in config.js you need

                        module:'mod_client',
                      

                      see the topic ‘How to add modules’ in my signature
