@droidus good one, never seen that before.

tell me more, what pi, how did u install the os, and MagicMirror…

I installed the raspbian OS via copying files to the sd card. Here is the board version: Pi Model 4B V1.1. I installed the program via these instructions: https://docs.magicmirror.builders/getting-started/installation.html#manual-installation.

@droidus and the os is the full version w desktop, right?

rename the MagicMirror folder to some other name, and use my install script

see https://github.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts

droidus · Sep 19, 2021, 4:47 PM

@sdetweil OK, I installed it. What web port does it use?

sdetweil · Sep 19, 2021, 4:50 PM

@droidus what port does what use? mm is on port 8080, but you shouldn’t need that

@droidus what display are u using on the pi?

must have something, running in graphics mode, not text mode.

do u see the temples when u boot the pi?

do

echo $DISPLAY
DISPLAY=

then

npm start

droidus · Sep 19, 2021, 9:55 PM

I am using the default one that comes with raspbian os.
:0.0
I get this error message: no such file or directory, open ‘/home//package.json’.

sdetweil · Sep 19, 2021, 9:57 PM

@droidus have to be IN the MagicMirror folder for npm start
