      Hi,

      I recently attempted to update modules through the MMM-Remote-Control module via my phone.
      I shouldnt have. Something went wrong and the mirror no longer automatically boots on start up. Is there a trick to using this feature for clean updates?

      Thanks in advance

        @Nneuland depends on the module. all the ones that use gpio pins will need an electron-rebuild, for which the process changed.

        if u upgrade mm base, same thing. my upgrade script tries to handle all that. don’t know what remote control does, but it’s old, so probably not

          Thanks Sam. Could you share a link to your upgrade script?

                @Nneuland if u have already tried to upgrade the base, you can try
                upgrade w parameter

                force
                

                instead of

                apply
                

                this overrides the version check
