config error somewhere, need help
-
I ran it through a syntax validator and everything checks out with that, but I’m still getting the Please create a config file error. I was modifying the MMM-iFrame module and hit a wrong key and the config closed. after bringing it back open i saved and reloaded and now nothing. I cant figure it out. Thanks for any help. Here’s my config file:
var config = { port: 8080, ipWhitelist: ["127.0.0.1", "::ffff:127.0.0.1", "::1"], // Set [] to allow all IP addresses // or add a specific IPv4 of 192.168.1.5 : // ["127.0.0.1", "::ffff:127.0.0.1", "::1", "::ffff:192.168.1.5"], // or IPv4 range of 192.168.3.0 --> 192.168.3.15 use CIDR format : // ["127.0.0.1", "::ffff:127.0.0.1", "::1", "::ffff:192.168.3.0/28"], language: "en", timeFormat: 12, units: "imperial", modules: [ { module: "alert", }, { module: "updatenotification", position: "top_bar" }, { module: 'MMM-GoogleMapsTraffic', position: 'middle_center', config: { key: 'AIzaSyAQ7aXDzoA9IPfkxFmsl-V2HAat_vU0LhE', lat: 41.5670065, lng: -87.160403, height: '300px', width: '500px' } }, { module: "clock", position: "top_center", timezone: "America/Chicago" }, { module: 'MMM-iFrame', position: 'bottom_bar', config: { url: ["https://app.actiontiles.com/panel/a8583a72-680a-47ea-8f51-7264b23617df"], updateInterval: 0.5 * 60 * 1000, width: "100%", height: "510px" } }, { module: "calendar", header: "US Holidays", position: "top_left", config: { calendars: [ { symbol: "calendar-check-o ", url: "webcal://www.calendarlabs.com/templates/ical/US-Holidays.ics" } ] } }, { module: "compliments", position: "lower_third" }, { module: "currentweather", position: "top_right", config: { location: "Portage", locationID: "4925006", //ID from http://www.openweathermap.org/help/city_list.txt appid: "6666861a53a2f121c1e1f0f76accef00" } }, { module: "weatherforecast", position: "top_right", header: "Weather Forecast", config: { location: "Portage, IN", locationID: "4925006", //ID from http://www.openweathermap.org/help/city_list.txt appid: "6666861a53a2f121c1e1f0f76accef00" } }, { module: 'MMM-Nest', position: 'top_right', config: { token:"c.iaFlhM5fBxDothVhOjhmeYA4ETBv0wCk175fAjgyfGZlXTvFGjOTdbzRG1zF117wqzduags7XigHcP4Lxb4t18g6YkVxmm7z0IbaHGYvLNFoO5zFgxe3k0Z3oDhsGL9LhBglQVohNeEUYQOc", displayType: 'visual', displayMode: 'nest' } }, { module: "newsfeed", position: "top_bar", config: { feeds: [ { title: "New York Times", url: "http://www.nytimes.com/services/xml/rss/nyt/HomePage.xml" } ], showSourceTitle: true, showPublishDate: true } }, ] };

@TaylorTech22 do you have the following line at the bottom?
/*************** DO NOT EDIT THE LINE BELOW ***************/ if (typeof module !== "undefined") {module.exports = config;}
also is your config file named correctly
-
@strawberry-3.141 yes i do i just didnt include in the copy-paste
-
@strawberry-3.141 config/config. js is what I enter
-
@TaylorTech22 Did you to remove the modules one by one to see which one is going wrong ?
-
My suggestion would be start over… use the standard config and add one thing at a time…see if it works then add the next until you get to what’s not working…
-
@TaylorTech22 said in config error somewhere, need help:
@strawberry-3.141 config/config. js is what I enter
What do you mean?
-
another thing I could spot from viewing your config is that the timezone for the clock module should go into a
config: {}
, but this will not help you out with the black screen. -
Somebody should make EASY configuration system, or… all module developers should provide DEFAULT ACTIVE SAMPLE CONFIGURATION.
Or, at least, neater JSlint parser should be supported. -
@Sean all you mentioned exists ;)
