      node js/check_config.js

        @adamhrastich Well, there’s your problem. The config file should be config.js - if you’re trying to use the sample as a base, change to the correct by using mv config.js.sample config.js

        The "E" in "Javascript" stands for "Easy"

          @bkeyport said in config file errors?:

          pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $ mv config.js.sample config.js
          mv: cannot stat ‘config.js.sample’: No such file or directory

                @adamhrastich It’s alright. Once you get it working, you might want to look into MMM-Config as well. @sdetweil does a hell of a good job automating a ton of this.
