Update MMM

[sdetweil]

@mattx38
pm2 stop mm
cd ~/magicMirror
npm start dev
alt-spacebar, n to minimize MM,… any messages on the terminal window?
select the MM window to reopen, select the console, and scroll up to see if any errors…
there is a fatal one somewhere

[mattx38]

Yes there is an error in red :

[2020-04-01 22:06:21.797] [ERROR] WARNING! Could not load config file. Starting with default configuration. Error found: Error: The module ‘/home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-PIR-Sensor/node_modules/epoll/build/Release/epoll.node’
was compiled against a different Node.js version using
NODE_MODULE_VERSION 64. This version of Node.js requires
NODE_MODULE_VERSION 73. Please try re-compiling or re-installing
the module (for instance, using npm rebuild or npm install).

and other errors still with PIR module, but the errors are written in white

EDIT : I try a “npm rebuild” ?

[sdetweil]

@mattx38 pir is a pain in the rear… I would disable it in config.js for now

add

disabled:true, 

after module:“MMM-PIR-Sensor”,

[mattx38]

Done.

I did again a “npm start dev” and I have new errors written in red :

[2020-04-01 22:14:46.668] [ERROR] WARNING! Could not load config file. Starting with default configuration. Error found: Error: Cannot find module ‘/home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Hotword/snowboy/lib/node/binding/Release/electron-v6.1-linux-arm/snowboy.node’

[sdetweil]

@mattx38 yep, snowboy is broke too… disable MMM-Hotword

[mattx38]

This update broke a lot of things… What a pain !

[sdetweil]

@mattx38 for hotword, from the hotword doc, try
in the MMm_Hotword folder

git clone https://github.com/Kitt-AI/snowboy.git
cd snowboy
rm -rf .git
cp -r resources/models ..
npm install -y nan node-pre-gyp
./node_modules/node-pre-gyp/bin/node-pre-gyp clean configure build
npm install -y
npm install -y electron-rebuild
./node_modules/.bin/electron-rebuild

its because electron changed versions… some modules are compiled at certain node and electron versions
if u change the versions (how would u know), then these modules break… Hotword and PIR are two such modules…

[mattx38]

Now it is the Jarvis Assitant :

@mattx38 said in Update MMM:

MMM-AssistantMk2

yep assistant… same problem as hotword… incompatible binary versions

assistant doc

Then, you need to rebuild grpc module for electron of MagicMirror.

npm install --save-dev electron-rebuild
./node_modules/.bin/electron-rebuild

[sdetweil]

for pir-sensor try

cd ~/MagicMirror
npm install electron-rebuild
node_modules/.bin/electron-rebuild

For the last command, it is very long to achieve ; 5 minutes that it runs.
It’s written : Building module : grpc, Completed: 0

[sdetweil]

@mattx38 every machine is different… I ignore how long it takes…

did i work?

[mattx38]

Don’t know yet.
Did I do something wrong with the update ?
Everything seams to be broken…

Anyway, thank you very much for your precious help and sorry for my poor english (I’m from France)

[sdetweil]

@mattx38 no issue… the ‘default’ instructions don’t consider all the other things that will break.

even my upgrade script does not handle these problems… as they are so module specific…

my french is a LOT worse than your english!..

[mattx38]

Ok I understand.
I saw a message on the Remote Control module github and it seams there is also a problem with it after the MMM update.

My MagicMirror was running as a charm till this update. I saw the alert on the MM screen so I did it… what a shame

[mattx38]

It is still running, but nothing changed into the terminal.
After the command “npm install --save-dev electron-rebuild” I had this message :

• electron-rebuild@1.10.1
  updated 2 packages and audited 822 packages in 16.302s

3 packages are looking for funding
run npm fund for details

found 9 low severity vulnerabilities
run npm audit fix to fix them, or npm audit for details

Should I run “npm fund” and “npm audit fix” before launching the second command ?

[sdetweil]

@mattx38 no, those won’t help anything

[sdetweil]

@mattx38 did u disable pir-sensor?

are there still problems (dev window, terminal window?)

[mattx38]

Yes I disabled it.
Can I run a new Putty window while the rebuild of Assistant is running, to check ?

[sdetweil]

@mattx38 sure
