MM doesnt work after update to version 2.26

davismorehead

so should i try and get your script to work or do something else to fix this

@davismorehead you could try upgrade, with force instead of apply.

davismorehead

how do I do that?

also if I run the command
pi@raspberrypi:~ $ systemctl get-default
graphical.target

I get graphical even though I don’t have the file

davismorehead

I did

npm update.

i did pm2 start mm

and it works. Thank you very much

@davismorehead what npm update?

davismorehead

I will look at your script later.

So in the future I should run npm update not npm install?

davismorehead

cd MagicMirror/
pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $ npm update

added 495 packages, and changed 6 packages in 3m

195 packages are looking for funding
run npm fund for details

That worked

@davismorehead i don’t understand

when we release a new version, we have dependency changes additions, removals

so to handle all that you do
npm run install-mm
install-mm is a script tag in the package.json

it just turns off as much of the noise as we can…

my script does the same thing…

I don’t know what npm update does. we don’t use it

ad you could try upgrade, with force instead of apply.

so based on this post i Tried npm update. Not sure what you meant me to do. So sounds like we solved it but don’t know why.
