@sdetweil Have you seen these errors before? Mirror still starts though. I have just noticed it now as I usually start my mirror from the cron.

@mumblebaj looks like MagicMirror-backup-restore is in the modules folder… should be in the users root, as it’s not a MagicMirror ‘module’
mv ~/MagicMirror/modules/MagicMirror-backup-restore ~ -
@sdetweil Thanks Sam. That sorted it.

Recently I have only started coding and therefore do not pay attention to security bugs at all. I hope that it is not interesting for anyone to hack into our computer.

@sdetweil And so it begins. Modules like the MMM-Hue and others that talk to internal devices on the local network is going to become a problem.

didn’t know this but I’m not surprised …
When this limitation is live the modules must send the new header, we will see which of them are still maintained …

So a LetsEncrypt wildcard certificate could help here (if you have a domain that is). But does MM even support running with a cert out of the box, or do you need to recode stuff?
-
@fribse there is support for certs. but most people don’t have a registered domain
I use dyndns.org to get a name back to my server on my dynamic address. it has changed a few times over the years, and I switched service providers too
-
with own domain I would recommend to run a reverse proxy in front of mm (and any other app) which handles the cert stuff automatically (as e.g. traefik). So you have not to deal with cert stuff in the apps behind the proxy.
