Raspberry Pi Zero W for Magic Mirror

davidgagne

@sdetweil It’s frustrating because I swear it was working before I rebooted.

@sdetweil If you thought 148 restarts was bad … This is what I see now:

@davidgagne got it. Just back from my walk… will examine…

@sdetweil I followed your tutorial on adding the Jeopardy module (just to see what would happen) and it worked fine. The last step is npm start and when I did that I got this:

> magicmirror@2.27.0 start
> ./run-start.sh $1

FYI: There is definitely an internet connection, so we can rule that out. Otherwise I have no idea.

@davidgagne yep,

not my tutorial just one I reference

see this
https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/15778/fix-for-black-screen-in-2-16-and-later

@sdetweil Hmmm. Okay. I tried that for the ‘alert’ module but it didn’t seem to have any impact:

dvg@hyperspace:~/MagicMirror $ cd modules/
dvg@hyperspace:~/MagicMirror/modules $ ls
default  MMM-JEOPARDY
dvg@hyperspace:~/MagicMirror/modules $ cd default/
dvg@hyperspace:~/MagicMirror/modules/default $ ls
alert  calendar  clock  compliments  defaultmodules.js  helloworld  newsfeed  updatenotification  utils.js  weather
dvg@hyperspace:~/MagicMirror/modules/default $ cd alert
dvg@hyperspace:~/MagicMirror/modules/default/alert $ ls package.json
ls: cannot access 'package.json': No such file or directory
dvg@hyperspace:~/MagicMirror/modules/default/alert $ npm init -y
Wrote to /home/dvg/MagicMirror/modules/default/alert/package.json:

{
  "name": "alert",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "description": "The alert module is one of the default modules of the MagicMirror². This module displays notifications from other modules.",
  "main": "alert.js",
  "scripts": {
    "test": "echo \"Error: no test specified\" && exit 1"
  },
  "keywords": [],
  "author": "",
  "license": "ISC"
}


dvg@hyperspace:~/MagicMirror/modules/default/alert $ cd ..
dvg@hyperspace:~/MagicMirror/modules/default $ cd ..
dvg@hyperspace:~/MagicMirror/modules $ cd ..

Same result; just a bunch more restarts and nothing appearing. (The Pi desktop is there, though.)

@davidgagne why alert? it’s the mmm-jeopady module that is missing a library

@davidgagne said in Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W for Magic Mirror:

async App.start (/home/dvg/MagicMirror/js/app.js:261:3) {
code: ‘MODULE_NOT_FOUND’,
requireStack: [
‘/home/dvg/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-JEOPARDY/node_helper.js’,

davidgagne

@sdetweil So, because I am relentless, I rebooted to see if that would help. It didn’t, but now it looks like I have a different problem altogether:

cd MagicMirror/
pm2 start MagicMirror
[PM2] Spawning PM2 daemon with pm2_home=/home/dvg/.pm2
[PM2] PM2 Successfully daemonized
