      @sdetweil the command now works. Now I need to figure out why the socket.io connection isn’t working.

      Failed to load resource: net::ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED

        Wrong URL :)

        All is working now. Thanks for the help.

                Any chance this is still being worked on? Read through this entire thread in hopes I’d be able to solve my problem without bugging (see what I did there?) you, but alas, I did not.

                Simply returning the “builder encountered a problem, see MagicMirror messages for info” when I navigate via the QR code.

                Would appreciate any help you might be able to supply.

                Thank you!

                    @sdetweil The only feedback it produces is:

                    [WARN] You're using a full whitelist configuration allow for all IPs

                      @SteakExpert are you using pm2?

                      if so, pm2 logs --lines=xxx

                      xxx is the most recent lines

                      there should be a lot more output

                          yeh, that message was put there to tell you what to do instead of being dead

                          that means the error trap worked…

                                @SteakExpert we are looking for content in the MagicMirror runtime messages (from npm start ) that might look like this (forced an error just to get the content)

                                 [LOG]   stdout: --------------------MMM-Config
                                module MMM-Carousel has an error in the construction of its defaults section
                                the error line is     transitionTimeout: somevalue,
                                please change it to the literal value of the referenced defaults variable
                                and restart MagicMirror
                                --------------------MMM-Config
                                

                                the browser message is the last part setup of the error handler

                                  I am a noob at this, how do I set the port to use the browser and how do I show the QR code on my MM?

                                    @DarkV the default port is 8080

                                    you can edit in config.js and change the number, or change it in the form

                                    and in the MMM-Config config set showQR to true
                                    or change it in the form
                                    the doc mentions how to open the form directly in a browser

                                    note on the QR you MUST change config.js to support outside MagicMirror system access, per the doc

                                      @sdetweil said in Are you tired of editing config.js, or have trouble doing it, see my new module:

                                      config set showQR

                                      So, should I add “showQR = True” to the configj.s?
                                      As I said earlier, I do not have the skill of the format.

                                            @sdetweil Apologies for my lack of knowledge, but I didn’t fully understand your response about the URL. Please keep in mind that I’m not very experienced with coding.
