thanks so much for the trouble report… fixed

Dear Sam, you’re REALLY (!) welcome!

Thanks to YOU for all of your effort!

Ralf

thanks so much for the trouble report… fixed
next execution will handle it correctly and that revision of the backup will be more accurate. I noticed that I also did not preserve the file attributes (date/time, owner, permissions) , and that is corrected too…

Some local modifications are not catched

oh my…

Can I restore this directory manually?
And if possible is this done with a fully qualified path or somehow different?
(meaning “https://github.com/rkorell/MagicMirror/tree/main/MMM-Pir”)

you could edit the MM_backup/module_list file and change the url
and then restore from the local MM_backup to test

if good then do another backup to make a new tag of the updated state (with the corrected url)

Can I restore this directory manually?
And if possible is this done with a fully qualified path or somehow different?
(meaning “https://github.com/rkorell/MagicMirror/tree/main/MMM-Pir”)

so would my command be:

git clone https://github.com/rkorell/MagicMirror/tree/main/MMM-Pir 

or

git clone https://github.com/rkorell/MagicMirror/MMM-Pir

Or do I have to transfer my tar file to the new raspi and unpack it there?

Thanks for guidance!

Ralf

nearly all is working!

Some local modifications are not catched (e.g. datafile for birthdaylist (to illustrate what I mean - you are somewhat familiar with birthdaylist :-) ) ).

For unknown reasons “MMM-CalendarExt3Agenda” is not showing up - I may have to apply the fix I had seen somehow (have NOT to use this fix on my Pi4 with same mirror version (2.30.0))
Calendar fetches are present (checked log) so it seems an error in C3A …

By checking log I found a never seen error:

is this related to auto-update?

And another question: On my other Mirror a restart happens when I write config.js back to raspi - this doesn’t happen on new system - can I enable this with a parameter somehow I have missed?

Thanks a LOT for your great script and your effort behind!

Ralf
