@sdetweil I found this Install libnss3 deb package: sudo apt-get install libnss3, but get this: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu $ sudo apt-get install libnss3
Reading package lists… Done

@the_2winz and now MM should start ok
you should not be running MM as root user…

[the_2winz]

@sdetweil still get this
rob@raspberry:~/MagicMirror $ npm run start

magicmirror@2.25.0 start
DISPLAY=“${DISPLAY:=:0}” ./node_modules/.bin/electron js/electron.js

/home/rob/MagicMirror/node_modules/electron/dist/electron: error while loading shared libraries: libnss3.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

[sdetweil]

@the_2winz

sudo apt get install libnss

edit:

on my desktop I see

libnss3.so => /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libnss3.so (0x00007f2630707000)

from

ldd ~/MagicMirror/node_modules/electron/dist/electron | grep libnss

[the_2winz]

@sdetweil rob@raspberry:/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu $ find libnss3.so
find: ‘libnss3.so’: No such file or directory

[sdetweil]

@the_2winz

do

cd /
find . -type f -name "libnss*.*" 2>/dev/null

search disk

[the_2winz]

@sdetweil i cp to the right dir… but now when i run npm run start i get the following error > magicmirror@2.25.0 start

DISPLAY=“${DISPLAY:=:0}” ./node_modules/.bin/electron js/electron.js

/home/rob/MagicMirror/node_modules/electron/dist/electron: error while loading shared libraries: libnss3.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32

[the_2winz]

@sdetweil i was able to add it to the electron/dist/ directory but when i run npm run start, now i get this error /home/rob/MagicMirror/node_modules/electron/dist/electron: error while loading shared libraries: libnss3.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32

[sdetweil]

@the_2winz yes this

uname -a
file /bin/bash

I think you have a hybrid system… 64 bit kernel, 32 bit runtime

[the_2winz]

@sdetweil looks like it.
rob@raspberry:~/MagicMirror $ uname -a

[sdetweil]

@the_2winz hm can you do the
file command on the libnss3.so

[the_2winz]

@sdetweil like libnss3.so bin/bash/ ? i’m not sure i follow

[sdetweil]

@the_2winz

file /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libnss3.so

mine says

[sdetweil]

@the_2winz aha! you showed the 386 mode, not x64… SOOOOO that means electron is wrong… looking for the 64 bit library…

[sdetweil]

I would install Ubuntu instead of the raspian x86 image, which is a mess.

[the_2winz]

@sdetweil i think i will just lean on the browser feature - npm run server seems to work. thanks for all your help!
