Your config.js might have some misspell or wrong syntax.

[reitrac]

My config.js is by default :D
I just changed “en” by “fr”.

I’ll try to find config.js on Git and come back to you.

Thanks.

EDIT :

I downloaded the latest config.js from : https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/blob/master/config/config.js.sample
And not works :'(

I can bet you have missed comma after language:"fr". 95% of syntax error was that thing in my case. :D

[reitrac]

@Mykle1 @Sean Didn’t works with the default config … I don’t know why.

[justjim1220]

@reitrac

Did you change the name of the config file from ‘config.js.sample’ to ‘config.js’ ?

[reitrac]

@justjim1220 Yeah of course :)
I followed @Mykle1 tutorial.

EDIT :

If can help, I’m using VirtualBox on MAC with UBUNTU 16.04 LTS
