v6.12.3
Not workingbtw that command if anyone else needs to look it up is just
$ node -v@Cyberwrights thanks for that … I just used ‘dpkg -l | grep ii | less’, and that took forever to find node … lol

My first thought there is an issue with electron. Looking into it.
-
Could someone try the following in the MagicMirror folder:
npm install electron@1.4.15If this works, please state your Node version as well. (
node -v) -

npm install electron@1.4.15
pi@ham-raspi:~/MagicMirror $ npm install electron@1.4.15
electron@1.4.15 postinstall /home/pi/MagicMirror/node_modules/electron
node install.js- @types/node@8.10.1 node_modules/@types/node
magicmirror@2.3.0 /home/pi/MagicMirror
└── electron@1.4.15 invalid
Node v6.12.3
- @types/node@8.10.1 node_modules/@types/node

Uhhmm… thats odd. It’s just a command to downgrade electron.
-
It seems to fix the issue for others. Not sure why you are unable to downgrade electron.

Yep. Reboot helped.
Rebooted, stopped MagicMirror and then the downgrade worked.
MagicMirror is up and running again!Thanks a lot!

@MichMich well-done.

Solution in this thread https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/issues/1243
in MagicMirror Folder
npm install electron@1.4.15 -
You guys should probaly do
pm2 stop mm; pm2 killto make sure it’s not running in the background.Also, AFAIK, I think if you do
git reset --hardyou’d loose all your old config settings and other changes you’ve made?"Everything I do (here) is for free – altruism is the way!"

@E3V3A The Config & Modules folder are not part of the Git repro. All other changes are overwritten.
-
I’ve released an update: https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/releases/tag/v2.3.1
-
Just to say it…
It seem that many people having problems, are running something out dated.
Either: nodejs, npm, or pm2.Because of the incredible dependency chain involved for node packages, I can only assume that using a newer versions of one package, will also require a newer version of the package depending on it, and possibly vice versa. Of course when things are working, it all beautiful, but it seem very easy that it doesn’t.

Just updated the new repo.
It’s alive again.
Thanks great job

@MichMich Thanks very much for the easter gift!

Same with me. I was not at home over Easter, had switched off the raspberry 3 days. Launched yesterday and just a black screen. :(
After that I read this with the new update and executed it, unfortunately without any changes. The downgrade of electron described above also brought no change. Still a black screen and no display via ip:8080. -

I followed the usual update routine.
I don’t have any logs, as I’ve restored MM from an earlier SD card backup.MM working OK everywhere, it’s just telling me I’m 150 commits out-of-date.
I’ll live with that until the electron black screen issue is resolved. -

It is resolved in V2.3.1
