MM cant boot, wont boot!

[Cyric]

@sdetweil when I go into the developer console, it says " devtools was disconnected from the page. Once the page is reloaded, devtools will automatically reconnect."

If I x out of that and go to console, it’s empty.

[Cyric]

More troubleshooting: I deleted the config.js and it loaded and said I needed to load a config.js file. I loaded the sample one, and it went back ot being a black screen.

[sdetweil]

@Cyric ok, where do u start mm? pm2 or nom start manually

if pm2 do

pm2 logs --lines=100

if nom start, the console output is right there.

let us know what u find

@Cyric >Cannot find module ‘ical’

hm…
the calendar reader module is not found

can you do

cd ~/MagicMirror
rm package-lock.json
rm -rf node_ modules
npm install

[Cyric]

I ran that, then did npm start again. It told me: "> magicmirror@2.11.0 start /home/pi/MagicMirror

[sdetweil]

[Cyric]

This post is deleted!

[Cyric]

@sdetweil ok, progress. It started magic mirror with a black screen and no mouse. Before it was a black screen with the mouse, and it said electron instead of magic mirror 2. I rebooted and tried to reload my config.js, but it didn’t help.

[sdetweil]

@Cyric can u show any errors from pm2 or npm start screen
