Electron.js error

anonymous321 · Apr 12, 2025, 5:28 AM

I’ve been getting a lot of issue trying to get magic mirror to start. I’m starting to get a little frustrated as I decided to wait a few months to finish this project due to issues with the calendar update that I could not resolve. I tried using the following script to install MM sdetweil /MagicMirror_scripts. Im getting the following error on a raspberry pi 3 model. I have the install.log file but im not sure how to upload it.

@anonymous321 install.log is just a text file, you copy/paste same as you did for the error list

is this a new install or later?

sdetweil · Apr 13, 2025, 12:15 PM

@anonymous321 can you do this

cd ~/MagicMirror/vendor
npm install
cd ../fonts
npm install

and restart MagicMirror
