We would have to know the error message to attempt to help you. So, run the mirror and make note of the error message, in its entirety. Then post it here in a code block using the

Try
rm -rf /home/pi/MagicMirror/node_modules/electron. Then runnpm install electron. -

The error message is telling you what you have to do. So, in your GUI, you can navigate to your MagicMirror/node_modules/ folder and delete the electron folder. Then open a terminal and
cd MagicMirrorandnpm install -
I removed the folder and this happened

pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $ nmp install

Sorry if this sounds a bit harsh, but to be honest, that’s an easy one that you can answer yourself with all the information you have in this thread already. You’re making the same mistake as yesterday.
Hint: Check where you are. Use “ls” (list content of current directory) and “cd”. Learn to read the path to know where you are.

pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $ nmp install

pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $ ^C
pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $u used “nmp install” instead of “npm install”
do exactly this:
cd
cd MagicMirror
npm installwait for Installation complete. This will take a while. Just wait UNTIL u see the “pi@raspberrypi:” again and u are able to type new commands. Even if u can’t see an installation progress bar.
then typenpm startor if u use ssh:DISPLAY=:0 npm start -
thanks you it has worked up until it said I need a config file
-
I guess you have to create a config file. ;) Did you read the Readme @ https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror (scroll down a little)?
The MagicMirror, as the readme points out, comes with a config example. Create a config file by copying the example file with this command:
cp config/config.js.sample config/config.jsUse this command from the MagicMirror folder!
(The way this works is: copy | original/file.js | target/file.js) -
thanks, I think it works I will try now I really appreciate your help
I will put the code down belowpi@raspberrypi:~ $ cd MagicMirror
pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $ npm run config:checkmagicmirror@2.2.2 config:check /home/pi/MagicMirror
node tests/configs/check_config.jsChecking file… /home/pi/MagicMirror/config/config.js
Line 96 col 5 Label ‘file’ on statement.

Did you copy the config.js.example to config.js with the code above? Have you made any changes inside config.js yet?
Can youcdinto the config folder and tell us whatls(list) is showing? -
-
follwed your guide still got the same messsage
-
In the sample config there is no line 96 !!!
don’t know what u did, but maybe u should read a little more accurate as doubleT said before. I don’t want to attack you.
Just delete your config file, copy this here and rename it to “config.js” and put it in your config folder. This should work
