Help please!!

sdetweil

is this on a pi4? I see a problem with the qrcp it wants to know which adapter to run on, wifi or ethernet… and its parms aren;t working… I tried on all kinds of machines with one adapter… weird…

if pi4 open terminal do qrcp config
and basically hit enter til it ends

then try mm again

sdetweil

install setup fixed

please git pull
and then npm install again

@sdetweil No, it is a Pi 3B

@sdetweil Thank you. It works perfect. Fantastic module.

I added some more updates, the app that corrects the image orientation runs only on what u upload now, not ALL the images int he folder… (could be hundreds or thousands)…

debug:true to turn on messages from node helper and module (false by default)

took out other dead code

edit: to add the npm install
git pull in the module folder to get the latest, npm install and then restart MM

@sdetweil Hello! Yes I can see the QR code on the display. However, when I scan it - this is what its showing me

What does this mean?

sdetweil

@innovation did you git pull and npm install the latest

the postinstall script is supposed to fix that

@innovation what did u type??

qrcp

sam@galliumos:~/MagicMirror/modules/uploadPics$ qrcp
Error: requires at least 1 arg(s), only received 0
Run `qrcp help` for help.

anf then, if the file was present

ls qrcp.json

should have replied

sam@galliumos:~/MagicMirror/modules/uploadPics$ ls qrcp.json
qrcp.json

innovation

@sdetweil
pi@smart:~ $ qrcp
Error: requires at least 1 arg(s), only received 0
Run qrcp help for help.
