White screen after MMM-Remote-Control update
-
I have run the update on the MMM-Remote-Control module, and now get a white screen when starting MagicMirror.
If I // the lines on the MMM-Remote-Control module in the config.js the Mirror shows up normally. I have deleted and reinstalled the MMM-Remote-Control module but the problem remains.Any advice? I do like the functionality of the Remote Control module.

MagicMirror will not quit, but it might be a good idea to check why this happened. Maybe no internet connection?

@roramirez Experience the same issue and was fixed by following your instructions! Thanks a bunch!

Thanks, all good now

@roramirez.
Thanks, you have hit the nail on the head. I did run the git pull command, I have run the reinstall (the script did not work so I ran the manual method, but I did not run the npm install.
Sorry, I am new at this.
I did search the forum but could not find a solution.So, thank for pointing out my mistake and helping me rectify it.
@ others: thanks for sharing your problems and logs so the problem could be solved.
Case closed from my perspective.

@Hein-Jan Sorry about this, forgot to mention, that the new version introduces dependencies which must be installed.
@roramirez answer should work for anyone having the same problem (thanks!).
