Blank black screen | Noob
-
Alright so I fixed the problem of the two instances opening but when I run ‘DISPLAY=:0 npm start’ It’s still blank.
Any ideas on how to fix this? Like I said before it works when I use "node serveronly’
-
Go back to the beginning. Move your current
config.jsto something else, likeconfig.js.backup. Then grab the originalconfig.jsand try running that, see if it comes up.You only need to set the
DISPLAY=:0if you are connecting remotely. -
Did it using the sample config and renaming it to config.js. I still get a black screen, but if I do “node serveronly” with the same files it works in my browser.
I’m getting no errors besides the “No helper found for module” (all of them)
-
With the default
config.jsyou get a blank screen when you try to run'npm start'? If so, what’s the hardware? Have you updated the OS? All variables. -
I used the automatic installer located here, https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror, and followed every step.
I’m using a Raspberry Pi 3 Model B.
I’m running Raspian Jesse 4.4, Node v4.4.3.
The MagicMirror is up-to-date -

THIS is the setup that worked GREAT for me:
https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/236/complete-setup-tutorial(Surprised KirAsh4 did not mention it. Follow it step by step; first time around will take you 30 min, but after that you will fly through it). Work. It really does.

@Arod192, that’s a rather old version of node. When you run the automatic install from MM², it installs a more recent version automatically. You shouldn’t have to do that manually.
-
@amanzimdwini, I didn’t mention it … yet … because I like to figure out where the problem is, before I tell someone to start from scratch. :)
-
@KirAsh4 Update Node.js and I’m still having the problem
-
@KirAsh4 Okay I just changed the language from en to nl (just to see what’ll happen) and now it works!
But now everything is in the “nl” language but when I change it back to “en” the screen is black again
