Troubleshooting Positions

[roaminMirror]

@sdetweil

Yes I am running on windows for the time being until I am ready to move it to a RPI.

The positions.js file is

const modulePositions=["fullscreen_below"]

If I attempt to change it and then start the server with npm run start it will revert back to the above code.

@roaminMirror interesting… I don’t see this problem on windows…

anyhow

edit js/utils.js
at the end is the function

getModulePositions () {
		// if not already discovered
		if (modulePositions.length === 0) {
			// get the lines of the index.html
			const lines = fs.readFileSync(indexFileName).toString().split(os.EOL);  

change that last line to

                       const lines = fs.readFileSync(indexFileName).toString().split('\n');

@roaminMirror I was able to recreate this on windows…

opened issue #3662 and submitted fix #3663
change to ‘\n’ as I proposed

[roaminMirror]

That was what was needed! Thank you for helping out with that!
