        it’s absolutely not your fault but mine and my fear of doing stupid things.
        so i copied the command line: bash -c “$ (curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts/master/upgrade-script.sh)” apply

        and i get this :

        pi@raspberrypi:~ $ bash -c  "$(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts/master/upgrade-script.sh)" apply

          errors…

          the more I look at it, the more it sounds like a networking problem
          I checked each reported bad file and I get them clean…

                      @rikko14 ok, (when I said pm2 start, I assumed you would know to add the name or number , pm2 start 0)

                      do

                      pm2 save
                      pm2 start 0

                        it works but I found this Electron problem … with a black screen :
                        see a the top right of my screen

                          @rikko14 black screen… yeh. I added code to fix that but the bad file format problems prevented

                          do

                          pm2 stop all
                          pm2 flush
                          pm2 start 0

                          wait til MM comes up

                          pm2 stop all

                          then do this (1st post is enough)
                          https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/15778/fix-for-black-screen-in-2-16-and-later

                          for each module reporting a missing library (there are more than 1 library potentially missing, so I don’t give you the exact command to issue, but teach you how to find the error and fix it from there)

                          then after fixing for all modules with problem,
                          (note you MAY have to repeat this looking thru the log part, I don’t know if they ALL will report, or if it will stop after the 1st error)

                          pm2 start 0

                              @sdetweil Maybe combine the script and check if exist then update, else frsh install? Would that work?

                                what is going on…

                                the instructions say

                                if the module does NOT provide a file called package.json, then do
                                
                                npm init -y
                                
                                

                                why are you doing this in the users home folder?

                                    @mumblebaj said in how to update my MM:

                                    Maybe combine the script and check if exist then update, else frsh install? Would that work?

                                    what? check if what exist?

                                    the problem here is that i looped thru all the installed modules, and found a package.json, which now requires a new
                                    npm install

                                    in the module folder, BUT, the npm install failed cause of the networking problem

                                    one that is finished, I loop thru all the modules and check to see if they use one of the troublesome libraries
                                    and do NOT reference it in package.json…
                                    and if NO package.json, then I create one, and THEN do the npm install of the library

                                    phew, all the same as the instructions i gave in the linked topic.

                                    but there might be ANOTHER library too … that I don’t handle…

                                      @rikko14 it says

                                      to fix this you need to install the library in the module folder

                                      cd ~/MagicMirror/modules

                                      cd modulename (where modulename is the module having the error)

                                      SO, you have to cd ~/MagicMirror/modules/modulename

                                      same as every other time you were told to cd modulename

                                        I’m lost …
                                        here are all the modules I have installed.
                                        2022-01-13-171057_1080x1920_scrot.png

                                        I have to do: cd ~ / MagicMirror / modules / modulename for each module and then npm init -y ?
                                        and post here all the results of npm init -y ?

                                        I have already had this Electron problem several times and I do not remember what I had typed as the command line but it was not that

                                          @sdetweil said in how to update my MM:

                                          what? check if what exist?

                                          What I was referring to is for a single script to run, check if MagicMirror exist, check version and upgrade if not on the latest, if not exist then do a fresh install. This way whoever runs your script does not run the wrong one. Just a suggestion.

                                          Check out my modules at: https://github.com/mumblebaj?tab=repositories

                                            @rikko14 look in the pm2 logs output

                                            search for Cannot find module

                                            sorry for the dual use of the word module. NPM calls the library a module and MagicMirror calls its app a module…

                                            after that string, there will be a name in quotes ‘request’ or ‘valid-url’, or maybe something else

                                            on one of the next lines will be a file path

                                            MagicMirror/modules/??? some MagicMirror module name

                                            THAT is the MagicMirror module which is missing the library found in the 'Cannot find module ’ message above

                                            So, navigate to that MagicMirror module folder

                                            cd ~/MagicMirror/modules/modulename 
                                            

                                            and then look for the package.json file

                                            ls package.json
                                            

                                            if you get ‘No such file or directory’ in response to the ls command, then create the file by doing

                                            npm init -y
                                            

                                            next step,

                                            npm install ???
                                            where ??? is the name of the missing library in the message ’ Cannot find module ’

                                            done for this library for this MM module
