      have you tried a sudo apt-get update ?
      It might be worth giving that a try - afterwards, reboot then try re-running npm start again

            I lost count on how many times this has come up already. You can not start the mirror using that command when you are remotely SSHd into the rpi. The rpi simply does not know what monitor to use, yours, or the one connected to it. You have to tell it that:

            DISPLAY=:0 npm start

            Use the correct command, and then figure out what the problems are.

            A Life? Cool! Where can I download one of those from?

                While I find it humorous please be careful with replies… we don’t know how many youngsters we have roaming around here. Appreciate it! :)

                      With me still the same error synonymous with the command DISPLAY =: 0 npm start but the same error

                        @moris do you tried it from the terminal on raspberry or via Mac or Windows? Try this command only in raspberrys terminal…
