Poemoftheday module showing black screen

@sdetweil I removed the dot. This time I am getting the error that I need to check my config file.

When I runnpm run config:check, I am getting the following error

[13.05.2021 15:06.26.058] [INFO]  Checking file...  /home/pi/MagicMirror/config/config.js
[13.05.2021 15:06.26.130] [ERROR] Your configuration file contains syntax errors :(
[13.05.2021 15:06.26.133] [ERROR] Line 56 column 3: Parsing error: Unexpected token {

This is a snippet of my config file

@e199504 said in Poemoftheday module showing black screen:

Line 56 column 3: Parsing error: Unexpected token {

so, that means the line before it contains an error…

USUALLY unexpected token means the line before is missing a trailing comma

	{ 
     		module:"......",
     	}       /// this line, should say, MORE to FOLLOW   , <--- comma
     	{
     		module:"ppppp",
     	}

@sdetweil I copied again the array to add in the config file from the Poemoftheday

here is the snippet of my config file

// false, default for all NON-armv6l devices
	// true, force serveronly mode, because you want to.. no UI on this device

	modules: [
		{
			module: "alert",
		},
  		{
    			module: "MMM-PoemOfTheDay",
    			position: "upper_third",
    			config: {
      				textLimit: 1000,
      				lineLimit: 10,
      				detectLanguageApiKey: "{API_KEY}",
      				languageSet: ["en", "es"],
      				updateInterval: 120000
    			}
  		},
		{
 			module: "MMM-Breathwork",
  			position: "bottom_right",
		},

@e199504 that should be ok… did config:check find anything?

also, did you do the npm install in the module folder after git clone?

what do the messages say where u start MM?

npm start or pm2
if using pm2 then

pm2 logs --lines=100

should show them
