Starting MagicMirror v2 beta

MichMich

There seems to be an issue with electron on your RPi. Are you sure you are running it on a Pi 2? (And not a B+, they look very much alike…)

If so, I suggest you open an issue in the electron repository.

I raised a ticket for m’y issue with electron-quick-start… hope it will be quick…

Still don’t have any news… from electron-quick-start, so still can’t use MagicMirror v2-beta :'(

While You’re waiting, You could start the app using ‘node serveronly’ in this case you’ll have to use an other browser.

Hi there,
got it running using the serveronly feature… on my laptop, not with my “old” RPI1… (display is weired)
But on my laptop, got some NULL lines…

I got also issues with calendar and news while Mirror v2-beta was using wifi connection, since i moved it to a wired connection, i got calendar and news… if that helps…

Got the same problem.
Had MMv1 running for some months, now wanted to update to v2.

Yesterday i installed it manually and it worked from the beginning.

After that i thought about a clean Jessie Install because of the autostarting stuff from MMv1.

Today i installed Jessie and MMv2 manually again, but now i got the same error msg :(

I already tried the electron-quick-start and it worked.

Have you tried using the automatic installer? A week ago I cleared my Pi model b 3 and used the auto starter. Note: you need to copy the config sample to js.

WoW. after i deinstalled all node stuff with this

apt-get --purge remove node
apt-get --purge remove nodejs
apt-get autoremove
reboot

reinstalling node 4.0.0 with this

wget https://nodejs.org/dist/v4.0.0/node-v4.0.0-linux-armv7l.tar.gz 
tar -xvf node-v4.0.0-linux-armv7l.tar.gz 
cd node-v4.0.0-linux-armv7l
sudo cp -R * /usr/local/

and THEN installing it with the autoinstaller, it works.

Thanks :D

I think skipping the node 4 part would have worked as well. Since the installer installs node for you.
