      @史新瑞 yes… you can redirect that to a file

      npm start >somefile.txt 2>&1

      wait…

      then ctrl-c

      then examine and post

      make sure to pm2 stop all before npm start

                        @史新瑞 MagicMirror is installed in a subfolder named MagicMirror

                        the npm command reads the package.json file in the CURRENT folder to determine what to do

                        npm means node package manager (n.p.m.)

                        you are in the users home folder

                        /home/pi

                        no package.json here…

                        you must change the current directory (cd command)
