@sdetweil same problem…

[sdetweil]

@zolabus

 /home/pi/MagicMirror/node_modules/ical

this folder does not exist in the latest release

and if u deleted the node_modules folder (per the prior instructions) it should not exist on your system either

do

grep version ~/MagicMirror/package.json

[karsten13]

@sdetweil may he should delete package-lock.json too

[sdetweil]

@karsten13 true…

I saved all the modules I had installed…
What else for a backup?
What about a clean reinstallation?
How can I delete everything? It’s enough if I delete the MagicMirror folder?

@zolabus Hi all after all I found a couple of modules causing the issue…
I started from a standard config file and added the modules one by one.
Now I have my magic mirror back
Thanks
