@ecirpnaes ok stretch is too old for this latest electron

I think u have to move up to buster(release after stretch) as least

bullseye is the current

and another one coming soon… this year I think.

u might be able to backup,/restore using my scripts
https://github.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror-backup-restore

and use my script to install latest to restore config to.

@sdetweil That sounds about right. It’s been a couple years since I’ve updated my base image. I assumed it was going to come to that sooner or later.
Thanks for the confirmation. I’ll definitely take a look at your scripts.

@sdetweil said in Mirror broken after v2.22.0 upgrade:

@ecirpnaes ok, do this
cd ~/MagicMirror
rm -rf node_modules
npm install --omit=dev --no-audit --no-fund
i just did this on my pi4 after upgrading from 2.21

Great!
Solved my problem too!
Thanks.

@Peter I have done same but in my case only server is running

sdetweil

@Knight are u only running server mode on purpose?

Knight

no, I want to run directly, but it is giving the same error
/home/pi/MagicMirror/node_modules/electron/dist/electron: symbol lookup error: /home/pi/MagicMirror/node_modules/electron/dist/electron: undefined symbol: gbm_bo_get_modifier .
So I run server mode

@sdetweil
I’m getting an Electron error on startup.

Specifically… .node_modules/[…]/dist/electron: symbol lookup error: undefined symbol: gbm_bo_get_modifier
So I run in server mode

@Knight can you show output of

lsb_release -a
