MMM-JAST stopped updating a couple of days ago.

@KristjanESPERANTO Here is my system info from the npm run start output:

This also highlighted an error I may have been missing in the pm2 logs output, so it may not be a module issue at all. I apologize if I had you looking at this and it was just an issue with my MM setup. I’ll start researching what this error means:

[2026-01-19 18:14:54.626] [ERROR] [app] WARNING! Config file appears empty, maybe missing module.exports last line? 
[2026-01-19 18:14:54.627] [ERROR] [app] WARNING! Could not load config file. Starting with default configuration. Error found: TypeError: userConfig.modules is not iterable

@vgardenn show the last 5 lines of config.js
Compare to the sample in the same folder

What is this?

userConfig.modules

[vgardenn]

I’m unsure what that userConfig.modules is, from my googling it seems maybe related to node.js?

Here is the entire config.js. The last 5 lines look similar to the sample config:

let config = {
  modules: [
    {
      module: "MMM-MagicMover",
    },
    {
      module: "clock",
      position: "top_bar",
      config: {
	timeFormat: 12,
	displaySeconds: false,
	dateFormat: "dddd, MMMM D",
        }
    },
    {
      module: "weather",
      position: "top_center",
      config: {
	weatherProvider: "weathergov",
        type: "current",
	tempUnits: "imperial",
	roundTemp: true,
	showFeelsLike: false,
	colored: true,
	showSun: false,
	lat: "xxxxxx",
	lon: "xxxxxxx",
        }
    },
    {
      module: "MMM-Jast",
      position: "middle_center",
      config: {
	displayMode: "none",
	stocks: [
	  { name: 'DJIA', symbol: 'DIA' },
	  { name: 'SP500', symbol: 'VOO' }
	]
        }
    },
    {
       disabled: true,	
       module: "MMM-NowPlayingOnSpotify",
       position: "bottom_center",
       config: {
       	 showCoverArt: false,
         clientID: "<YOUR_CLIENT_ID>",
         clientSecret: "<YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET>",
         accessToken: "<YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN>",
         refreshToken: "<YOUR_REFRESH_TOKEN>"
    	 }
    },
  ]
};

@vgardenn these lines are not at the bottom of your config file

/*************** DO NOT EDIT THE LINE BELOW ***************/
if (typeof module !== "undefined") { module.exports = config; }

Typically to start your MagicMirror journey
You copy the sample and edit the copy for your use

[vgardenn]

Well you called it correct, I did not start with the sample config and adding that missing line at the end of my config got this mod working as expected. I had grabbed the example config from documentation here assuming it was good enough and was off to the races.

Thank you very much for your help on this @sdetweil and @kristjanesperanto

[sdetweil]

@vgardenn cool. We’ll fix that

The MagicMirror install doc says
