A problem about MMM-BMW-DS

@TheGeekfather

Did you not follow the readme on how to install the dependencies?

OK, that might be the problem because for some reason all the modules were installed in

modules/default

so when I bash dependencies, it says it couldn’t find the /modules/Hello-Lucy folder

I moved the Hello-Lucy folder to modules - ran bash dependencies.sh again but no go :(

Thank you for any help !!! I’m a retired computer science teacher that wont’s to keep on learning :)

@Mykle1 I just copied and pasted the code you corrected, reset my API, and copied and pasted it, but it didn’t work. I checked the developer window and there are only two warnings, and they don’t seem to have anything to do with this module. I checked my Dark Sky console and it shows that my API has not been called. Now I suspect that there is a problem with my network.

I wonder how that happened? I could take a guess. ;-)

The only modules that belong in the modules/default folder are the default modules from the MagicMirror installation. All additional modules should be installed into the modules folder itself, not the default folder. Each repo should have directions for installation. cd MagicMIrror/modules being the most common

Because the installer expects to find Hello-Lucy where it belongs.

I moved the Hello-Lucy folder to modules - ran bash dependencies.sh again but no go

No go, meaning what? Errors? Where did you run that command?

Do you have other modules that are calling an API. Are they working? Please let me know when you’ve confirmed your internet is working and we’ll get MMM-BMW-DS working for you.

Hi, I hear the voice at startup but mic says “Undefined” under it - line through indicating mic not found? I can record and play back at the command line and USB sound card same as yours.

Do you think it could be a dependency that wasn’t installed?

Thank you again for your help

Uhh, I’m not using a USB sound card.

I think, rather than trying to troubleshoot this, it would be best that you delete your current installation of Hello Lucy. You didn’t exactly follow the directions. You can save your config entry.

Read the arecordHelp.md file inside the docs folder of the repo. The microphone should be working before the installation of Hello Lucy.

Then follow the installation instructions in the readMe.md file. if you deviate from the instructions then I won’t be able to help you.
