      I don’t know what I am doing wrong, but every time I try to make any kinds of changes, I end up breaking the mirror.

      I would be greatful if someone could help me get the mirror running again

      Here are some logs

        @sdetweil What I kept trying to do is get node and npm updated, but I royally screwed things up where nothing is working anymore. I can’t use the PM2 command to start and stop things or see the status. So, I just nuked the SD card and am starting from scratch. I will use your scripts.

          @redink said in Every time I run an update, something breaks. This time is no exception:

          lectron failed to install correctly, please delete node_modules/electron and try installing again

          sadly it happens

          delete the folder as suggested and do

          cd ~/MagicMirror
          npm install electron@22.0.0

          how did u upgrade? manual git pull or my upgrade script?

          what hardware are you on?

          uname -a
          and lsb_release -a

          will give us info

          little look at your output again
          2 info using npm@6.14.4
          3 info using node@v10.15.2

          you are way downlevel…

          if u had used my script, I would have upgraded node and npm for you .
          see https://github.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts

          I try to help avoid the fatal upgrades that you experience

          note
          latest MM won’t run on raspi os stretch or earlier, so one has to upgrade sd card too.

            @sdetweil, i just kinda kept trying random things, including your script and I think I made things worse. I did try to update node and npm, but something is really out of whack.

            The error I keep seeing over and over again is

            npm WARN npm npm does not support Node.js v10.24.0
            npm WARN npm You should probably upgrade to a newer version of node as we
            npm WARN npm can't make any promises that npm will work with this version.
            

            when I run “node -v”, i see v19.8.1, so I have no idea where 10.24.0 is coming from. I am close to just nuking my pi and starting from scratch.
