@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!

@sdetweil Thanks. Turned out there were several dependencies missing that are needed by the Dilbert module.

I’ve now reloaded my config files and all is well - thanks!
