Installing on a Pi Zero
-
@big11 this goes to my forked repo. Are you booting through to the desktop or to the console?
-
so since yesterday i installed many times from Scratch but without success……
With your script i ran into Troubles with a lot of Errors…
missing dependencies….
so i suggest to do more steps after “sudo apt INSTALL --fix-missing” -> “apt UPGRADE --fix-missing” does not work…
sudo dpkg –configure -a. and. sudo apt install -f.at npm install a lot of Warnings e.g.
npm WARN grunt-stylelint@0.10.1 requires a peer of stylelint@^9.0.0 but none is installed. You must install peer dependencies yourself. npm WARN acorn-jsx@5.0.1 requires a peer of acorn@^6.0.0 but none is installed.

it won’t start …
as done in the guide i created a mm.sh script und configured this for autostart with pm2
at next start Nothing happens to start MagicMirror localy
a “pm2 logs mm”
Shows a loop of “sh run-start.sh”

but electron.js isn’t installedtrying manually install this with
sudo npm install electron -gended again in Error-Messages

does anybody know where my Failure is ??
Thank you

@big11 I did a test install today, so I’m really not sure what you are doing.
You will notice that the missing dependencies are installed in subsequent steps (e.g. there’s a problem with style lint and acorn. This is then fixed (see where it says
+ stylelint@9.9.0and+ acornlower down in your warnings).This installation is completely different from the MM-Wiki. It does not use
sh run-start.shat all. Therefore there may well be problems.Can I ask, are you doing your installation over SSH/Telnet? or on the Pi itself? because you keep mentioning ‘locally’ and I just want to make sure I know what you mean by that.
Edit: Also, don’t use npm install in sudo; it should be run as the normal user
-
as for your Question
i’m installing over SSH but start it then directly on the Pi0…
i will i try a new Installation by now…
normally i don’t run “npm install” as root…
don’t know if i wrote so… -
thats my “achievment” from last night…

finally full success!!:)
@big11 install directly from raspberry terminal not via ssh.
After few fresh installation and hundreds errors last time tried install usingbash -c "$(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ac2799/MagicMirror/master/installers/raspberry.sh)"from raspberrypi terminal.There were some errors but finally worked.
if you want, I can make a image of my card and share it. -
you made my day…
it works…
the first differences i encountered was the Installation of electron …
this i didn’t found at all the others…and i thought before, that this will be the quest…
regarding to the warnings installing npm
you could fix that with “npm Audit fix” or “npm Audit fix --force”
as suggested…i did this also, so maybe this could be an error too…
and if it works but this warnings, who cares…. :-)
have a great day…
thank you -
Awesome write up. Super helpful!
-
Thank you very much for this work! The tutorial works perfectly. I just installed it in a rpi zero W. Highly recommended for anyone who wants to install it on this SBC.
-
Many thanks Andrew - worked well for me (other than first step: connecting to wifi with WPA2 needed some minor tweaks.)
