MM cant boot, wont boot!

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

@Cyric are u running MM OS? or docker?

those files should be there.

cd ~/MagicMirror
ls modules/default -laF

Cyric

@sdetweil I’m running rasbian like the tutorial suggests.

That command gave me: “pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $ ls modules/default -laF
total 12
drwxr-xr-x 2 pi pi 4096 Jul 3 08:21 ./
drwxr-xr-x 3 pi pi 4096 Jul 3 08:21 …/
-rw-r–r-- 1 pi pi 512 Jul 3 08:21 defaultmodules.js”

sdetweil

@Cyric well. why are they. missing?

I don’t know if this will work

cd ~/MagicMirror
git checkout modules/default

if not, you will probably have to git clone and copy the files from the clone

git clone https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror. git mm

cp -r -p mm/modules/default ~/MagicMirror/modules

Cyric

@sdetweil I have no idea what happened. I ran the update, restarted, and nothing worked.

So, the command git checkout and nothing seemed to happen. I removed the folder and did the git clone of the directory. I tried to do git mm and it said mm is not a git command. I tried to run the last line you gave me, and it said no such file or directory.

I really appreciate all your work on this.

sdetweil

@Cyric that git clone was all one long line

clone this repo into a folder named mm

you removed the folder, that’s where it went further south

Cyric

This post is deleted!

Cyric

@sdetweil when I out the whole line in, it said fatal too many arguments. I made a new folder called mm and did the git clone of the site.

Forgot to run npm install, will do that and post results.

Cyric

ok, mostly back. My calendar and news feed is still stuck on loading, but everything else is back up. I will post some error logs later after i poke around.

Sam, thank you so much for your help. It is really appreciated.

Cyric

rebooted this morning, reinstalled a module, and everything is back except the weather only shows 2 days. Thank you again for your help Sam.

chrisparker

@sdetweil I’ve going through the same thing. I had a good running copy of MM and I attempted to upgrade to the latest version. It would not boot. I followed this thread as far as discovering that all the modules had been deleted. I used the command to reinstall the default module, then reinstalled my selected modules from the MM Package Manager. Still doesn’t work, it only shows a blank screen with a pointer.

Running npm restart gives:

TIA,

sdetweil

@chrisparker somebody is missing one of their dependencies

Cannot find module 'cheerio

do

cd ~/MagicMirror
npm install cheerio

then try to start

sdetweil

@Cyric 2 days, I think they pushed a fix for that, do

cd ~/MagicMirror
git checkout develop
git pull

then restart mm

Cyric

@sdetweil So i tried that and it said “error: Your local changes to the following files would be overwritten by checkout:
package-lock.json
Please commit your changes or stash them before you switch branches.
Aborting”
but i havent edited the package-lock.json, so i don’t know why its saying that. Since the problems started when i ran the update, i’m nervous to mess with anything again.

sdetweil

@Cyric package-lock. Jason is shipped as part of the project, AND updated every time one does npm install, so it will always present a problem.

just erase it, and then git pull again

Cyric

@sdetweil So i should delete the package-lock.json file, then run

cd ~/MagicMirror
git checkout develop
git pull

and then restart mm?

sdetweil

@Cyric yes

Cyric

awesome, that worked.

Thank you!
