      Hi, everybody

      after a long time I am working again on my Magic Mirror. :-)

      But today I have a little problem…

      i like to update one module. I think no problem. I can use “git pull”. I change into the modul folder and write git pull. But now they will update magic mirror and not the module. OK i checked if i really in the module folder. Ok i am right. Then i searched in this forum and Iam found only thread about updating all module at the same time or that i should use git pull. But that I have used.

      Have somebody a idea what i do wrong?

      greets gismo

        @gismo2006 Are you trying to run “git pull” from the specific module’s folder? You need to cd inside before “git pull” will work.

            @gismo2006 sounds like the directory isnt a git repo. did you use git clone to install the module or did you manually download the files etc.

            Please create a github issue if you need help, so I can keep track

                @gismo2006 I think I am actually having a similar issue as you. I updated the same module last night using git pull, but the module is not functioning properly. @strawberry-3-141 any chance we need to npm install inside the folder again?

                      Okay I have a new Problem. Because git pull didn’t work, i Download the git Repo as an zip file and extract into my module folder. I change the name to the correct module name and rename the old remote Modul folder. Then I restart mm2 and I only see a white page and my pi crashes. But I remember i have seen this Problem in this forum in a post too. But now I’ll decide to go sleep i will check this tomorrow.

                      So good night good morning or whatever is right now :-)

                        @gismo2006 well, you will have the same problem again next time when you have downloaded it manually

                        did you install the dependencies?
