@sdetweil I am getting the same “default message if none supplied in the config.js”

sdetweil

@innovation weird

ok, add
debug: true,

to the module definition
and then do

npm start >somefile
once mm comes up u can stop it and then we can look at somefile

innovation

@sdetweil npm start >somefile
npm ERR! missing script: start

npm ERR! A complete log of this run can be found in:
npm ERR! /home/pi/.npm/_logs/2021-03-26T16_26_09_848Z-debug.log

Yes, the program started then I ended it

sdetweil

@innovation from the magicmirror folder please

innovation

@sdetweil Yes it opened. Where is the somefile?

sdetweil

@innovation in the magicmirror folder

> means put all the terminal window content of the pgm into the file
(same as for windows)

innovation

@sdetweil Nothing shows up in the terminal when I run in though

sdetweil

@innovation don’t understand, mm puts out messages
looks like this

> magicmirror@2.14.0 start /home/sam/MagicMirror
