Update from 2.15 to 2.16

sdetweil

@andyyy I uploaded fixes to the upgrade script to handle this…

bdream

Hi!
I did the upgrade to my system to 2.16

Uploading upgrade.log with 600 lines is not possible… because of file format.

After reboot I have only the mouse in the middle of the screen but MM is not working.

Also I’m not able to get a connection wit ma Web-Browser.

Raspberry itself is accessible via SSH.

Any idea?

sdetweil

@bdream yes look at the mm startup messages
we call this the black screen

bdream

@sdetweil does it mean I have to do in MagicMirror folder?

sudo git fetch --all
sudo git reset --hard origin/master
sudo git pull origin master

sdetweil

@bdream no. u are probably missing some modules that mm removed

read the startup messages

npm start
or
if using pm2
pm2 logs --lines=100

@bdream I strongly guess that one of the 3rd party modules is not compatible vith MM2.16.0. I had the same issues with MMM-MyCalendar, which caused a black screen after starting MM. My approach is to disable all 3rd party modules by adding the line

disabled: true;

for each module and enable it one after the other by setting it to

disabled: false;

Taht might discover quicker, which module is the culprit instead of poking in logs (that is my personal approach!).

When you found the module, that causes issues, contact the developer on github, or look for an alternative fork which seems to be maintained.

Regarding the above mentioned MMM-MyCalendar module, I reverted to the default calendar module, which works just fine and delivers the same features.

@fozi come on, this is easy. get the messages. it will tell you which lib to install

bdream

@sdetweil okay, I’m going to try with messages.

So it looks to me as MMM-DWD-Pollen will be the problem.
That is faster, than going with disabled: true; and disabled: false; over all my modules :crossed_fingers: even it was a guess with the related module to me.

@Fozi now i have to see how to deal with your statement “When you found the module, that causes issues, contact the developer on github, or look for an alternative fork which seems to be maintained.”

Comment out this module in config and it works again.

Many thanks for your fast help!!!

andyyy

@sdetweil

I tried it again. Now the electron does not even start.

> magicmirror@2.16.0 start
> DISPLAY="${DISPLAY:=:0}" ./node_modules/.bin/electron js/electron.js

sh: 1: ./node_modules/.bin/electron: not found

I tried to re-install electron with "sudo npm install electron@latest
", but no change.

sdetweil

@bdream so you need to go to the
MMM-DWD-Pollen folder and do
npm install request --save
