auto-booting but no modules (no warning with config file)

will23110

So I turned off my mirror last night as per usual and turned it back on this morning to find that the modules aren’t loading, I don’t have a notification saying that I had an error with the config.js folder, the thing autoboots then shows absolutely nothing, I am running the latest version, I ran npm audit which showed 7 low, 1 medium, 1 high, so I ran npm audit fix, now I only have 5 low… but it still isn’t working… Any suggestions where to look or what to potentially do that doesn’t involve starting again??

@will23110 from the console of your pi, or over ssh, run

npm start dev

from the MagicMirror folder
open the console tab, and look for errors, red text

usually when a module crashes, the mirror will go black

so I’ve run that and in the top right corner it says 3 errors and 2 warnings, I just don’t understand why it would do this overnight, it was working perfectly last night

@will23110 select the console tab to scroll the list

no idea, something changed

will23110

yeah, shame though I’d only just perfected it ahah, so the three errors are

Uncaught SyntaxError: Invalid or unexpected token (translator.js:1)
Uncaught SyntaxError: Invalid or unexpected token (loader.js:1
Uncaught ReferenceError: Translator is not defined (misn.js:452)
at Object.init (main.js:425)
at main.js:580
and then a couple of security warning that I can probably (hopefully) fix.

@will23110 said in auto-booting but no modules (no warning with config file):

Uncaught SyntaxError: Invalid or unexpected token (translator.js:1)
Uncaught SyntaxError: Invalid or unexpected token (loader.js:1

so, I would use some editor to look at these two files in

MagicMirror/js

line 1 of each is a comment (/* */)

maybe there was an error on the memory card when u rebooted…

Uncaught ReferenceError: Translator is not defined (misn.js:452)

this error is because of the prior error on the translator.js file

will23110

so I’ve got translator.js open, it says at the top

/* global config, vendor, MM, Module */
/* MagicMirror
 * Module and file loaders.
 * Etc...

should it be

 /* global config, vendor, MM, Module */
 /* MagicMirror*/
 /* Module and file loaders.*/
 /* Etc...

but in the repository for MagicMirror on github its the same, how do I quickly check for differences instead of having to go through the entire thing and comparing to another file

@will23110 no, 1st is ok

sdetweil

@will23110 compare, i do not know
