MMM-GoogleAssistant not running

I also have a problem, I installed everything according to the documentation and it was done correctly, but when I run the application an error appears and the screen goes black. I need help please, thanks.

It’s meens that snowboy module is not builded correctly

I think when you did npm install you should have some errors, right ?
or maybe you did have no error but you try to do an npm fix command

what OS do you use ?

@Bugsounet this post
https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/13383/mmm-googleassistant-doesn-t-run

says running Ubuntu, and note that mm is in a subfolder from the users home folder
/home/mauro/Escritorio/MagicMirror

one error posted shows
cannot find module ./lib/node/index.js error

I have some know issue with ubuntu
Snowboy don’t want to build
I have not ubuntu installed to debug it but maybe some package is missing ?
If someone have a working version in ubuntu, simply contact me for updating script/dependencies

in all case, It’s ouside the requirement of GA (for this moment)

@sdetweil said in MMM-GoogleAssistant not running:

cannot find module ./lib/node/index.js error

it’s meens node_modules/@bugsounet/snowboy/lib/node/index.js don’t exist so ?

you can use free VMware player to create a single virtual machine of some other os.
download the os iso boot disk image, and use VMware player to launch it

@Bugsounet or on windows as host machine

I’m not an windows user ;(

@Bugsounet not a problem. just adding for others, don’t need a Linux host to make a Virtual Machine
