[Electron] display en screen after installing MMM-PIR-Sensor

[sdetweil]

@RIKKO14 on the ssh terminal, (its a terminal window, same as works on pi)

cd MagicMirror/config
nano config.js

fix the text (move the cursor with the arrow keys and type and backspace
then ctrl-o to write the changes back out and ctrl -x to exit nano
then type pm2 restart 0

for your windows box, get winscp, then u can connect to pi as both terminal window (for commands)
and a file system view, like windows, double click on folder to go in, or file to edit… use your favorite pc editor (I use notepad++_)

I do this :

and type pm2 restart 0, but my screen of MM is steel powered off…

@RIKKO14 now on your PC, open browser to
http://pi_ip:8080

same up address u used for ssh

now see magic mirror

[sdetweil]

@sdetweil and disable the PIR module in config.js, and manually turn screen back on

I’d this a Pi4. the off command works, the old on command doesn’t. I have seen others fight this but don’t remember any solution

I reinstalled everything last night except the GA module and had the same problem.
This morning I start all over again with the MMM-PIR module and the [Electron] screen is displayed instead of my MM screen.
My pm2 log indicated that there is a Node.js version pb: I am in version 73 while the require version is version 64.
So I put an issue on the link of this module to request an update of the module with Node.js version 73, hoping that there is only that.
In the meantime I put aside this module and reinstall all the modules for the X time.
my pm2 log :

0|mm       | was compiled against a different Node.js version using
0|mm       | NODE_MODULE_VERSION 64. This version of Node.js requires
0|mm       | NODE_MODULE_VERSION 73. Please try re-compiling or re-installing
0|mm       | the module (for instance, using `npm rebuild` or `npm install`).```


Thank you very much however for all your help and patience.

@RIKKO14 u used the electron rebuild instructions in the PIR module folder??

[RIKKO14]

sorry I don’t understand your question …
I do not know if I used the electron rebuild instructions in the PIR module folder. I preferred to remove the module so as not to have any conflict while I had the answer to my issue on the MMM-PIR forum because of the Node.js version problem
There, I installed MMM-Assistant2Display which I am trying to adjust and for the moment I am encountering problems of use. I tried the PIR function of this module but it does not work, suddenly I wonder if my HC-SR501 would not be defective

@RIKKO14 ok, the fix the node versions problem u need use the electron rebuild procedure I posted. it will throw this error long before ever testing the physical sensor.

u said I started over, and reported the same node version conflict.
