I just updated to the newest MagicMirror. I get a black screen and the following error in my error log:

I don’t know what the stats.py file is or where it should be. I also do have a config file, which has all my code in it exactly as before I updated. I don’t know why I am getting all these errors or what many of them mean.

@sdetweil Sorry I did look at that but didn’t understand it or my logs so didn’t realize they were related. Reading it again I realized I needed install request and that fixed the issue. Thank you and sorry for posting when the question was already answered.

@aunrea your logs shows

Cannot find module 'request'

bjoern

open another module directory and look for a “node_modules” folder and see if there is a “request” folder there. then copy this to your module where it is missing. that also helped and worked for me. Maybe more are missing. I searched my node_modules folder until I had everything together.
