          • /home/pi/MagicMirror/vendors npm install (This installed some missing stuff that seems to have not installed)
          • /home/pi/MagicMirror/ npm install (This failed, but showed that electron was missing. Only failed due to permission)
          • /home/pi/MagicMirror/ sudo npm install (This died with error ECONNRESET, so tried again)

            @Nomis said in Electron NPM Error:

            https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/2460/magicmirror-fails-to-install-during-electron-installation

            Those steps didn’t help.

              Sorry to hear that.

              For me it worked with those dependencies fixed.

              pi@raspberrypi:~$ npm -v ; node -v
4.1.2
v7.7.1
pi@raspberrypi:~$ cd MagicMirror/
pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror$ cd node_modules/
pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror/node_modules$ npm install electron

> electron@1.6.6 postinstall /home/pi/MagicMirror/node_modules/electron
> node install.js

magicmirror@2.1.1 /home/pi/MagicMirror
└── electron@1.6.6

pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror/node_modules$

              Here the thread I’ve been looking last night: https://github.com/electron/electron/issues/9324
              User: johannesjo made a fork: https://github.com/johannesjo/electron-prebuilt

              But what I did was to downgrade the extract-zip:

              pi@raspberrypi:~$ cd MagicMirror/
pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror$ cd node_modules/
pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror/node_modules$ npm uninstall extract-zip
.
.
.
pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror/node_modules$ npm install extract-zip@1.6.0
.
.
.
pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror/node_modules$ npm install electron

              As a result of all this:

              pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror$ npm install

> magicmirror@2.1.1 install /home/pi/MagicMirror
> cd vendor && npm install

magicmirror-vendors@ /home/pi/MagicMirror/vendor
├── font-awesome@4.7.0
├── moment@2.18.1
├── moment-timezone@0.5.13
└── weathericons@2.1.0


> magicmirror@2.1.1 postinstall /home/pi/MagicMirror
> sh installers/postinstall/postinstall.sh

MagicMirror installation successful!
pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror$

              Hope it helps

                      I ran into some trouble myself after installing the MMM-PIR-Sensor (the whole MM is not starting :D )
                      Mental Note: Remember to BackUp stable builds!

                      I don’t see the need of using sudo for npm install.
                      I’ve tried to replicate your error(took a while to undo the fixes):

                      npm list

npm ERR! extraneous: gulp-stylelint@3.9.0 /home/pi/MagicMirror/node_modules/gulp-stylelint
npm ERR! extraneous: stylelint@7.8.0 /home/pi/MagicMirror/node_modules/stylelint

npm purge

npm WARN grunt-stylelint@0.8.0 requires a peer of stylelint@^7.8.0 but none was installed.
npm WARN stylelint-config-standard@16.0.0 requires a peer of stylelint@^7.8.0 but none was installed.

npm rebuild
got this: coffee-script@1.10.0 should be installed with -g // npm WARN prefer global jsonlint@1.6.2 should be installed with -g

cd /MagicMirror/node_modules/
npm install  coffee-script@1.10.0 -g
npm install jsonlint@1.6.2 -g
npm install stylelint
npm install colorguard@1.2.0 -g

npm list (again yes)

                      you will get an error: npm ERR! extraneous: stylelint@7.10.1 /home/pi/MagicMirror/node_modules/stylelint because we instaleld manually.

                      Give it a try and let us know.

                        Holy crap, that worked. I’m back in business!

                        1000 camels to you, good sir!

                            They fixed the issue with extract-zip. Thanks.
