MMM-AssistantMk2 problems when using electron-rebuild

Xintium

When I start my magic mirror I get node version error so I did as the instructions told me and tried using electron-rebuild. But when I use electron-rebuild I get this error:

Excuse the Swedish parts.

What do I do to make it work?

@xintium

It seems you’ve missed some dependencies or mismatched version (especially node-gyp)

First, To make things simple, do these before install,

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

and try rebuilding again.

If fails, remove whole MMM-AssistantMk2, and resintall from scratch.

Xintium

@sean should I run

npm install --save-dev electron-rebuild
./node_modules/.bin/electron-rebuild

In MMM-AssistantMk2 or in MagicMirror directory?

A Former User

@xintium
In MMM-AssistankMk2 directory.

@sean I get the same error as I shared abow

@sean This is what I get when I run magic mirror

MagicMirror will not quit, but it might be a good idea to check why this happened. Maybe no internet connection?
If you think this really is an issue, please open an issue on GitHub: https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/issues

@xintium
You need module to rebuild.

npm install --save-dev electron-rebuild
./node_modules/.bin/electron-rebuild

If you tried already, something was wrong so rebuilding process might have been failed.
Have you any suspicious messages during your rebuilds?

@sean I get this message when trying to use electron-rebuild

@xintium
For confirmation,

Did you update & upgrade dependencies?
After that, did you remove MMM-AssistantMk2 directory and reinstall again?

Your error shows some of your dependencies are not updated to rebuild.
In that case, usually above steps are enough to fix.

Maybe this might be a help, but not sure.

sudo apt-get install build-essential 
sudo npm install -g node-gyp

Hello!

I have this error, when trying to run the node_auth_test.js

Error: /usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.21’ not found (required by /home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-AssistantMk2/node_modules/grpc/src/node/extension_binary/node-v48-linux-arm-glibc/grpc_node.node)

Can you give some advise how to solve this?
Thanks

A Former User

@logen563
Your GCC seems out of date.
Which RPI and OS are you using?

Try this, then reinstall again.

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

logen563

Thanks for the quick replay!
Will try the reinstall, the update/upgrade didn’t solved the issue.
I’m using rpi3, with raspbian jessie light.

A Former User

@logen563
I have no experience about Jessie Lite. But by some researching, I’ve found this;
https://github.com/doublethinkco/cpp-ethereum-cross/issues/79

Suggested solution is to upgrade your gcc-5

And, As I know, Raspbian Stretch (next version of Jessie) has no problem about this.

logen563

Thanks for the replay, I will try that and will let you know :)

logen563

Thanks for the link! After updating with the stretch gcc-5, its working:) but I see I have to move on to the Stretch distro.

@logen563
If you leave details here, I’ll add it to github repository for others. Thanks.

Hi, im not expert!
Someone can help me?
Thanks!

I have downgrade node js and npm;
pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $ node -v
v8.11.4

pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $ npm -v
5.6.0

pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $ node-gyp -v
v3.8.0

Then
npm install --save-dev electron-rebuild
./node_modules/.bin/electron-rebuild

Then -> Error!

Dear buddy,
After some research, I’ve found something. a few days ago, grpc was updated, but proper binaries are not provided yet. That’s why rebuild-from-source doesn’t work.

Here is an urgent but experimental fix.
I cannot give a guarantee to work, but think there is worthy of trying.

first,

cd node_modules
rm -rf grpc
cd ..
npm install @grpc/grpc-js

I wish grpc release proper target binaries ASAP.

Here is the answer from grpc-node community

So, wait for a while… It’s not the fault of my module… T_T
