position: “”,

yes, this is invalid

i put that line there to make sure you understood where the following lines should be. not to indicate exact text

you have to learn how to debug and resolve these kinds of issue

1st thing is to look at the logs, as you use pm2 to autolaunch MagicMirror
that is
pm2 logs --lines=xxxx

where xxxx is some number, default 15

Okay, thanks, I’ll look at it again, thanks.

@pat59 did you find and fix the problem?

pat59

Good evening.
No, I haven’t found anything. I’ve searched extensively and tried for 5 hours, but to no avail.
I tried this: /{
}/ It doesn’t work. I went to the forum and tried some things in js.conf.
This morning, I turned on the one you fixed for me, and the update message came back. I’ll continue using it. Thanks again for your message.

sdetweil

@pat59 can you do this

From a terminal window

pm2 stop all 
cd ~/MagicMirror
npm start &>somefile.txt

The post the contents of somefile.txt

pat59

Thank you, it works.
I was far from finding this. Thanks again for everything.
Sincerely,

pat59

I spoke too quickly after performing the manipulation it restarts by itself no more messages however once I restart the raspberry the message reappears.
In the message it tells me https://github.com Username

@pat59 said in message Remote Control:

in the message it tells me https://github.com Username

sorry, I don’t understand that text

as I said, you have to disable the updateNotification module

{
  module: "updatenotification",
  disabled: true, 
}

OR
you have to list the modules to ignore

{
   module:"updatenotification",
   position: whatever it is,
   config: {
     ignoreModules:["MMM-Remote-Control"]
   }
}

these messages in the pm2 log

[2025-03-14 20:51:34.981] [INFO]  Checking git for module: MMM-MealieMenu 
[2025-03-14 20:51:35.028] [INFO]  Checking git for module: MMM-pages 
[2025-03-14 20:51:35.070] [INFO]  Checking git for module: MMM-CurlToNotification

are from the updateNotification module checking each module not ignored

pat59

{

module: "updatenotification",
disabled :true,
position: "top_center",
config: {
  ignoreModules:["MMM-Remote-Control"],
  updateAutorestart: true, // restart MagicMirror automaticaly after update
  updates: [ 
    // MMM-MeteoFrance rule
    {
      "MMM-MeteoFrance": "npm run update"
     },
    ]
  } 
},
{
the message is still there , l don't know anymotre after several attempts to modify the js config

sdetweil

@pat59 and you restarted MagicMirror after changing config?
can you show the screen again?
are there multiple instances of updatenotification in the config.js?
