Installed MM2.3.1, still got black screen
Installed earlier version electron, still got black screen.Shutdown and restarted.
Now nothing on :8080 either :(
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logs, as I’ve restored MM from an earlier SD card backup.MM working OK everywhere, it’s just telling me I’m 150 commits out-of-date.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

Hello,

@surger13 Did you read the text?
Make sure you have the latest version of node.js and npm installed.
– That’s exactly what it means. -
@E3V3A
I thought I tried both. But it doesn’t matter now, I’ve redone everything. It’s back on now. Thanks for your help. -

Dude -
My magicmirrior is DEAD !!! HELP !!! HELP !!!
This is STILL an issue … had the BLACK SCREEN after the npm pull && install npm
Now the mirror does not even start and I get a Javascript error !!!
I also got the 4 vulnerabilities (1 low, 2 high, 1 critical) after the install

-
@chef use my upgrade script

Must be some of my modules but with your default config mirror works but with my config I get a BLACK SCREEN.
BTW, I did not upgrade (was a bit worried)… not sure if should do that !
-
@bitfit2020 it gives u that control
but glad u got it working
-
@bitfit2020 i dont have a config in any of my scripts
i used the sample doing install,
config.js for upgrade
and no confug for the screen saver and pm2 scripts at the endupgrade does what u are supposed to do manually, but breaks running systems with lots of none-base modules
upgrade tries to detect and fix the breakage
run 1st time it will just check if its possible upgrade would work
second time with ‘apply’ parm will do the upgrade process. a log is kept of the process
