Update the mirror for the first time in six months, won't start now

redink

Messed with it too much and broke something. Time for another fresh install.
Sigh…
Every time I update the mirror, something breaks.

@sdetweil, I’ll be trying your install script and update script from now on. Hopefully it will be a smoother experience that usual.

This is why I’ve never built a MagicMirror as a gift. I can barely maintain my own mirror.

@redink sorry, it is a delicate thing…

let us know how it goes

Well, I managed to get it up and running, and the script you provided seems to be a lot less finicky that my last install process. However, one of my modules MMM-CalendarExt is currently not showing. Trying to troubleshoot this, but here’s the log in case anyone wants to help out.

@redink that log says MagicMirror can’t start

redink

Never mind, it’s too late, and my brain isn’t working.
I had the module commented out :(
Still, I am seeing those errors in my logs.

sdetweil

@redink it does not erase the prior logs

To do that pm2 flush
Then start again
