Setting up Magic Mirror remotely?
-
@navyvette87 said in Setting up Magic Mirror remotely?:
throw new Error(‘Electron failed to install correctly, please delete node_modules/electron and try installing again’)
Terminal is telling what happened and you what to do here.
Go into your MagicMirror folder, then into the node_modules folder, then DELETE the electron folder.
Then run
npm installagain in the MagicMirror directory -
ok read some on the repository, was able to run the serveronly and got this
Magic Mirror2
Please create a config file.
See README for more information.
If you get this message while your config file is already
created, your config file probably contains an error.
Use a JavaScript linter to validate your file.what next?

I got it to work, but then I went through the pi setup stuff to turn on the screensaver and wifi sleep, now when i tried to reboot, it says
[FAILED] Failed to start Light Display Manager
SSH is enabled and the default password for the ‘pi’ user has not been changed. This is a security risk - please login as the ‘pi’ user and type passwd to set a new password.
pi@raspberrypi: $How do i get it to continue to the desktop screen?
-
I’ve never encountered that before. Maybe, revert the changes you just made, get your mirror running, then try them again, 1 at a time

fixed the light display thing by rebooting with hdmi unplugged, then repluging it in, then rebooting, but the ssh message still there

It means as written. Change your password with commandpasswd.
just trypasswdin your terminal. -
@Sean It ended up being one of the changes I made to set up the pi for the screensaver edit. I did try passwd though. thanks eveyone. I got it up and running. I have another post for a module problem, once I get that figured out, I will start on the hardware.
