@ionut322 take a picture? What do you mean?

I’m with @Sean, need more info to help you…:winking_face:
-
Followed your guide to install on my windows 10 - 64 bit machine.
Installation went OK, but when I start mirror I just get a black screen.This is the error message
Launching application. Whoops! There was an uncaught exception... { Error: listen EADDRINUSE 127.0.0.1:8080 at Object._errnoException (util.js:1024:11) at _exceptionWithHostPort (util.js:1046:20) at Server.setupListenHandle [as _listen2] (net.js:1351:14) at listenInCluster (net.js:1392:12) at GetAddrInfoReqWrap.doListen [as callback] (net.js:1501:7) at GetAddrInfoReqWrap.onlookup [as oncomplete] (dns.js:97:10) code: 'EADDRINUSE', errno: 'EADDRINUSE', syscall: 'listen', address: '127.0.0.1', port: 8080 } MagicMirror will not quit, but it might be a good idea to check why this happened. Maybe no internet connection?
Hope you can help me out.

@johans said in Complete Walkthrough - Install MagicMirror on a PC - Windows 7/10:
Error: listen EADDRINUSE 127.0.0.1:8080
at Object._errnoException (util.js:1024:11)
at _exceptionWithHostPortThis typically means that another application or program is using the port (8080) that MagicMirror uses. You would have to resolve that issue

Thanks for the info, can’t find out who is using port 8080, but I changed in the config to use another port.
Now all is working. :thumbs_up_light_skin_tone: -
Well done, mate. :thumbsup:
-
@mykle1 FYI
Meanwhile I found the problem of port 8080, due to some malware on that PC, the proxi settings where modified, only option was to re-install OS. Lucky I had some backup so that didn’t took so long.
Now proxi settings are no longer hi-jacked and I can run MM normally.
Problem solved! -
Ahh, Windows. I no longer use it for MM. I’m strictly a ubuntu 16.04 LTS guy now.
-
Hi. quick question. the MM work with the basic modules. as soon as i try to install a 3rd party module i have a syntax error. Checked and rechecked the code and there is no error. is there special thing to add code thant im not aware of
