<![CDATA[Version 2.31.0 Error With Upgrade Scripts]]>I used the upgrade script to update my MagicMirror to 2.31.0 from 2.30.0. It ran into an error and now MagicMirror won’t start.

The upgrade log file shows

Ver 2.30.0 and Ext3 modules loaded, install fix

  • _fix_clipping
    master
    updating MagicMirror runtime, please wait
    npm error code EACCES
    npm error syscall rename
    npm error path /home/twist/MagicMirror/node_modules/.ast-types-VPJXcxdi/node_modules/tslib/CopyrightNotice.txt

and it continues with npm error.

Any ideas how to fix this?

one of the npm commands w sudo. (never do that)

so to fix this you have to do it again to clean up

cd ~/MagicMirror 
sudo rm -rf node_modules
cd fonts
sudo rm - rf node_modules
cd ../vendor 
sudo rm -rf node_modules

then run the upgrade script again with

force

instead of

apply

at the end

Thank you for your help!!

I did try the test first and it didn’t show errors. But, you got it working!
