Far as I can tell, there is a black screen when you made a mistake in the config.js file or if you made a mistake in the code of module.
Did you wrote the module you want to use yourself ?

Try starting with dev tools and click
consoleonce it has started. Are you getting any errors reported there?pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $ npm start dev

@romain - i just did the git clone of the repository and no new addition done to any modules

@undergroundauth said in Black Screen after Launching application.:
i just did the git clone of the repository and no new addition done to any modules
a
git cloneof the repo would only try to download the repo again. Agit pullwould try to update. Make sure your node is up to date and try again if it updates. I assume you did annpm installin the MagicMirror directory, as per the installation instructions.Did you do the automatic installation?
The manual installation?
Update from 2.1.0?

@undergroundauth This is weird, you said you did not add module and yet, your log talk about “modules/aiclient” wich isn’t a default module . In a fresh cloned repository, your modules folder should only have a “default” folder, a “node_modules” folder and a “Readme.md” file in it.
your error talk about a “modules/aiclient” so it’s clear that you have another folder named “aiclient” in it. And If there is an error on it, it’s also mean the magic mirror try to call it which mean you add a section on the “config/config.js” file in the magic mirror repository.
So this module must have an error in it that messed up the display.
do something like renaming the current config file and reset the default value on a new one.
the following command should do the trickmv ~/MagicMirror/config/config.js ~/MagicMirror/config/old_config.js.save cp ~/MagicMirror/config.js.sample ~/MagicMirror/config.jsIf you didn’t mess with the config.js.sample it should reset your config.js to the default configuration.
Try to run the magic mirror next and tell us if something appear on the mirror.
