Thanks in advance

@Brian2312 A couple basic questions, if you don’t mind:
- What version of Raspberry Pi are you using? (or other hardware)
- Which installation path did you follow (such as the installation command from the GitHub page, or the complete startup tutorial, or other)?
- Is this a new installation that has never worked or is this a previously working installation which has somehow stopped working?

Hi,
I’m using the Pi3 with complete new installation. Raspbian Jessie is installed with additional ioBroker installation for some overviews of the hardware in the complete system.
For the MagicMirror installation I’ve used the automatic installation line from the magic mirror page. So there was no manual installation from my side for the MagicMirror itself.
I’ve updated the NPM and Node versions manually.Thanks in advance

It looks like you installed Magic Mirror as root. I would start by removing the Magic Mirror directory, switch user to the Pi user account, change to the home folder and then re-run the installation command. Hopefully that will solve it.

Hi,
thanks for this. I will try this today evening and let you know if this was working.
Thanks
