<![CDATA[Black screen with MMM Pir sensor after update]]>With the Pir sensor module, I have a black screen after starting. Have tried the following so far:
cd ~ / MagicMirror
npm install electron rebuild
node_modules / .bin / electron-rebuild

And then:
npm rebuild or npm install
for the pir sensor

The mistake remains anyway, someone an idea?

Greetings Jörg

other have had success with doing a fresh git clone and npm install.
I am not the module author, so I don’t know exactly whats going on

Obviously rebuild does the same. I’ve deleted the module and reinstalled it. Any ideas?

had the same problem with my pir sensor module and I could fix it with the help from you guys BUT now i loaded module but the monitor doesn’t shut down. Commands over ssh works fine. I did a fresh install only for the pir sensor module to get it working.

so, npm install after clone works…

must be the package-lock.json file (it recorded what it did last time)

I wiped the module folder and reinstalled it from github, now it works.

Updating “node-abi” might help solve this issue

delete package-lock.json in the MMM-Pir-Sensor folder,
run npm install there
then maybe also have to do electron-rebuild again
