      mmpm is a cool project.

      Instead this:

      python3 -m pip install --upgrade mmpm
      

      This may work (I don’t have time to test it now ):

      sudo apt install pipx
      pipx install mmpm
      

      @bee-mar Can you help here (and maybe update your installation instructions)?

      By the way: There is also a manual (like official) way to install modules. You do not need a manager for installing modules.

          Yes,

          I used to use the graphical interface which really liked then it stopped working. I used the python install and now it just works via command line:

          mmpm update

          Cycles through all installed modules and says if upgrades needed.

          mmpm upgrade

          Updates !

          How simple and efficient!

          Any messages I’ve had following them usually results in correcting any issues. It also updates itself.

          I’ve now come to prefer using the command line.

          Good luck! I can’t get mmconfig to work at all …

              @sdetweil Okay, I did a fresh MM install and got MMM-Config to work. However when bring up the module installer (the main reason I want MMM-Config), it takes ages to load then shows briefly. The minute I move to the search to start typing it says magic mirror installer not running … so I have to reload etc.

              So I never get to use it … base configure comes up okay.

              Stuck …

                @lmhmm great, what device is MagicMirror running on?

                are you opening the page on the same system?
                over the network? (how fast, wifi, or wired)

                I opened this issue

                  @sdetweil Okay so I’ve now completely reset my MM with the latest node and npm. Yes MMM-Config works as advertised thank you.

                    @lmhmm thanks for the feedback. I see the delay in loading the list on installer.
                    don’t have solution yet, the list of modules is quite long (over 1200)
