with force instead of apply

Thanks. What do you mean with force, instead of apply?

matt216

@sdetweil Thanks. What do you mean with force instead of apply?

sdetweil

@matt216

the upgrade command is

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

change the word apply to force

matt216

@sdetweil Thank you. It currently can’t upgrade as I have 2 electron node processes running. killall node and the processes start again with a different PID. Can’t seem to stop electron!

sdetweil

@matt216 pm2 stop all

pm2’s JOB is to KEEP the monitored apps running… you kill it, and then pm2 restarts…

pm2 status

will show you all the things being managed

matt216

@sdetweil Ah but any pm2 command gives me the error `GLIBCXX_3.4.26’ not found I originally mentioned.

sdetweil

@matt216 reboot… pm2 will fail to launch then upgrade again …

then pm2 should work

matt216

@sdetweil Unfortunately not. After reboot 2 electron processes preventing the upgrade-script from completing and pm2 commands fail without GLIBCXX version.

Appreciate the support here.

@matt216 ok, run this command string all one copy/paste and enter

sudo apt-get purge nodejs -y &&\
sudo rm -r /etc/apt/sources.list.d/nodesource.list &&\
sudo rm -r /etc/apt/keyrings/nodesource.gpg

@sdetweil Progress, thank you. After purging and removing those files, I ran the install script. It completes, but during the npm install step I notice:

E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
node: /lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.26' not found (required by node)

The script completes (but doesn’t give a npm version number, interestingly). I rebooted the pi and the mirror doesn’t start and pm2 command is not found.
