            @chrisfr1976 can you show me the output of thew npm run install-mm

            do it this way (from the MM folder of course)

            cd ~/MagicMirror
            npm run install-mm >somefile.txt 2>&1
            

            then when it finishes all the output is in somefile.txt

              lsb_release -a shows:
              No LSB modules are available.

              yes I used your upgrade-script with apply and also with force.

              pm2 start MagicMirror will start the MM but it won’t show up!

              npm start results in following errors:

                @xIExodusIx before this morning, my upgrade script had a bug

                do

                cd ~/MagicMirror
                ls installers
                

                that should fail (not found)
                then do

                mkdir installers
                curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts/master/mm.sh >installers/mm.sh
                chmod +x installers/mm.sh

                  @xIExodusIx also, if you do

                  cd ~/MagicMirror
                  npm start 
                  

                  does MM come up?

                      the installers folder is still there.
                      should I delete it?
                      or should run the script without delete the installers folder?

                          @xIExodusIx said in Mirror not starting after update:

                          nodejs is still the same: 18.19.0

                          this version like last requires node 20 or 22 (not 21)
                          this is the ‘problem’

                          magicMirror will not upgrade nodejs… only my upgrade script will do that
                          npm run install-mm should have failed as there is a test for the correct node version(s)…

                          can you show me the part of
                          ~/MagicMirror/installers/upgrade.log
                          from one of your upgrade runs?
                          or open an issue on my scripts repo and attached the log there
                          no personal info is present in the log

                              https://kristjanesperanto.github.io/MagicMirror-3rd-Party-Modules/

                              @xIExodusIx said in Mirror not starting after update:

                              you are on node 20.9.

                              there are 2 local files that are different than the master repo

                              package-lock.json
                              package.json

                              save/restore files selection = y

                              sorry, you cannot save/restore those two files…
                              they are the KEY files for each release

                              so, do

                              cd ~/MagicMirror
                              git diff package.json >somefile.txt
                              git checkout package.json
                              git checkout package-lock.json
                              rm -rf node_modules
                              npm run install-mm
                              

                              any changes you made to package.json are shown in the
                              somefile.txt if you need to re-apply them to the new package.json file

                              generally first rule, NEVER edit any files we ship.
                              1 it breaks upgrades
                              2 YOU are RESPONSIBLE for remembering WHAT and WHY you did it and how to fix it for next time.

                              this is why my upgrade script is TWO passes… to detect changes to critical files and warn you … help you remember (before we whack them)

                                Sorry I didn’t know that, I thought that it were better to save/restore these files. Next time i will answer that question with no.

                                  @xIExodusIx BUT their presence in the list SHOULD have made you think…

                                  what did I change? and is it still important…

                                  that is why I recommend running the test pass to find those things…

                                  my hope is to never break a running mirror…

                                    Sorry, I thougt they were important so thought it were better to save/restore them.
                                    I never changed anything in them, I can not code, I’m too stupid for coding!
                                    The question will you save tells me they are important otherwise they were maybe orverwritten so it is better to save them.
                                    I did not know that they were KEY-files for each new versions of MM and had (must) to be replaced by new ones.
                                    I never will answer that quesion with yes again.
                                    Now I will start to install my MM from scratch again for get it work. This will be my last attemp. When this does not work this time I will give up my MagicMirror project.

                                    Thanks for helping.

                                      @xIExodusIx you do not need to start over…

                                      jut use the command I gave to restore the 2 files and do the npm install again

                                      all will be well…

                                        I did that, but my MM won’t show up!
                                        And now it’s to late I already killed my USB-Boot-Stick by writing the working MM-Image from yesterday to it.

                                          Mirror is running now. I used

                                          cd ~/MagicMirror
                                          git checkout package.json
                                          git checkout package-lock.json
                                          rm -rf node_modules
                                          npm run install-mm
                                          

                                          I didn‘t change anything there but this fixed my main problem.

                                          But I still have this error message when I use pm2 start whatever. But it may be cosmetics…

                                          Thanks for your help one again!

                                          Chris

                                          Regards, Chris.

                                            So it’s up and running with MM 2.29.
                                            I think I will never touch it again, only make OS updates/upgrades and nothing else.
