Starter problem

in_a_days

Just wanted to check in. I tried to copy the config.js you posted and I had some problems as well. I’m a bit busy today, but I have some ideas and if you’re still stuck I’ll try to have a solution for you tomorrow. :)

Hallo
Has somebody an idea to help?
The internet connection is fine, cause the rss from the Ney York Times is shown.
Thank you in advance
kurt

MagicMirror will not quit, but it might be a good idea to check why this happened. Maybe no internet connection?

@kurt this means probably that there is already an instance of magicmirror running on your pi because the port is already used

@kurt are you sure you have a config file in /home/pi/MagicMirror/config

kurt

@strawberry-3.141 I’m allready working on that mistake.

Change the config, file and place over there.
Mystery…
Thanks
Kurt

I’m working with File Zilla to transfer the files.
By now I guess he the one who makes the config folder dissapear. Have you ever heard of something like that? or can you recommend an other tool to upload files? I tried Cyberduck, but won’t work.
Thanks
