MM failed after updating

@chrisfr1976 can you post the few lines of package.json around line 87

did you use my upgrade script?
if so can u email me the file
~/MagicMirror/installers/upgrade.log

using the same userid as on this post at gmail

In the beginning I’ve used the described update method here:

https://docs.magicmirror.builders/getting-started/upgrade-guide.html

So only git pull && npm run install-mm was used. But I’ve used the back-up script you’ve provided. Then I found also your update script. I’ve used it then, too. But same error. I’ll send the update.log via email :-)

Here the lines around line 87. I’ve marked it to show the position only:


  // Loads a package.json at given path and JSON parses
  static async load (path, opts = {}) {
    const p = new PackageJson()
    // Avoid try/catch if we aren't going to create
    if (!opts.create) {
      return p.load(path)
    }
*87*
    try {
      return await p.load(path)
    } catch (err) {
      if (!err.message.startsWith('Could not read package.json')) {
        throw err
      }
      return await p.create(path)
    }
  }

Chris.

@chrisfr1976 hm…

package.json looks like this

@sdetweil I was able to fix it. git reset --hard followed by npm run install-mm fixed the issue. I don’t know why but now everything is fine again. I’ll do a SD-card back-up now :-)

@chrisfr1976 weird, thanks for the update
