Sorry, I made a lot of mistakes on the README it seems.

Instead of

accessToken : "http://etc"

use

httpRequestURL: "http://etc"

apologies

no problemo,

with this config, black screen

modules: [
	{
		module: 'MMM-HTTPRequestDisplay',
		position: 'bottom_bar',	// This can be any of the regions. Best results in left or right regions.
		header: 'MMM-HTTPRequestDisplay', // This is optional
		config: {
			httpRequestURL: 'http://192.168.1.248:8889/status.xml',
			// See 'Configuration options' for more information.
		}
	},

Make sure that you’re not just copy and pasting blindly into your config file.

After each

modules: [
{
etc
},

Note the comma , after the module. That comma should only be there if there are more modules.

Likewise, if you’re pasting it last, you need to make sure the module before it has one, to let the script know there are more modules after the previous one.

So the pattern is

modules: [
{
   module: ‘firstModule’,
   config: {
   option : ""
   }
}, <<< COMMA HERE

modules: [
{
   module: ‘middleModule’,
   config: {
   option : ""
   }
}, <<< COMMA HERE

modules: [
{
   module: ‘last module’,
   config: {
   option : ""
   }
} <<<<< NO COMMA

hope that makes sense. hopefully that’s the problem.

Can you Zip up and upload your config file somewhere I can download it and I’ll take a look? Somewhere like pastebin.

Hey @acdacd2, please use proper Markdown when posting code. It really isn’t that hard to do and it makes it so much easier and pleasant for others to read, and possibly find errors quicker. Specifically you need to use back ticks before and after your code:

     ```
     like so. Note that a back tick is not the same as the normal apostrophe, ` versus ' .
     ```

@KirAsh4 can you confirm MM startup with my module with this config file?

The module won’t show any results but MM should boot?

The file ‘status.xml’ doesn’t exist on my system, so it gets a 404 returned, however it does load up, and it does work.

I have the same message with my environment.
In a browse it’s ok
