<![CDATA[Magic Mirror not booting up]]>Guys I’m becoming mad, I have spent last two days configuring my smart mirror with google assistant, Spotify and other. Finally today everything was working more or less (just minor adjustment to be done).
Unfortunately now it doesn’t work anymore, it doesn’t even boot. I can guarantee that before booting I changed just two things:

  • I removed this line
    display_rotate=1
    from
    /boot/config.txt
  • I removed
    -nocursor
    from
    xserver-command=X -s 0 -dpms -nocursor
    in
    /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf

Here is a screenshot:

All I get now is this:

While exiting from /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf I pressed inadvertently option+x instead control+x and I added “†” in the file without realising it.
Thank you guys for helping me out

My config file is ok, I just checked it

It seems your config.js is missed or have something wrong.

stop pm2 and try this and watch which error is shown.

cd ~/MagicMirror
npm start dev

you can check your configuration with;

npm run config:check
