@rambomonkey uou can see root owns the files

if you try to run as a normal user, you dont have permission to access them at all

thus the not found

[rambomonkey]

@sdetweil Thanks for the info, sorry im new to Linux. Would you happen to know how I could give a specific user the permissions?

[sdetweil]

@rambomonkey

the permissions are 3 sets of 3 rights

user read/write/execute
group anyone in this group
other anybody not specified above

the commands

are chmod which can set the individual
permissions using flags or a number
777 means all for all
770 mean user and group users can do anything, everyone else no access

the there is chgrp to change the group

all commands have help
–help

and most have a page in the manuals

man commandname

man chmod
man chgrp

you
eill need root permission to take root
permissions away

sudo gives root permission for this command

@rambomonkey
So this is how you want your Magic mirror setup to look like.

yeah no /root/ that can create a loads of headaches like this.

@PierreGode @sdetweil thanks you two, think I will just re-install as a normal user, you live and learn lol.

@PierreGode Hi, I have now re-installed it under user petek and I’m still seeing the same issue:

petek@MagicMirror-v2:/home/MagicMirror$ ls -la /home/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-next-episode/MMM-next-episode.js
-rw-r–r-- 1 petek petek 5798 Aug 26 19:34 /home/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-next-episode/MMM-next-episode.js
petek@MagicMirror-v2:/home/MagicMirror$

@rambomonkey I just installed the module

git clone
cd MMM-next-episode
npm install

used the sample config from the readme
(typo missing : after password in the readme)

{
  module: "MMM-next-episode",
  position: "bottom_right",
  header: "Next-Episode",
  config: {
    id: '',
    hash_key: '',
    username: '',
    password: '',
    displaySeasonAndEpisode: false,
    displayShowingOn: false,
    displayEpisodeName: false,
    maxdays: 7,
    ShowThumbnail: true,
    ThumbnailSize: 'small',
    updateInterval: 180
  }
},

and see the qr code on the screen under the header
