Can I check the errorlog over the commandline somehow?
If I google the “Black screen” problem with the Pi zero W, there are a lot of questions but now solutions.
Someone said ist maybe because of the ARM6 Arch. on the Pi Zero!?
Should I buy a Raspi3 to save my nerves ^^?
@Mykle1 said in Problem after installing MM on Pi Zero W:
Are you running npm start from your MagicMirror directory?
pi@magicmirror~/MagicMirror
no I didn’t , now there are no errors. Thanks.
But now the screen is black again.
npm start works, … hmm …is the configsample.js maybe not working with the Pi Zero ?
Is there a way to test the MM with an other method ? ( I’m using Midori, like in the tutorial)
Ok I was a bit too fast.
After installing the libaries no errors occur, but after rebooting the PiZeroW this happens:
pi@magicmirror:~ $ npm start

I did not search for this in the forum yet, maybe you have a quick answer for this again.
(maybe this is easy again, but I’m not good at debuging this error output)
Hey @Ultimatum22 ,
thank you very much.
I was missing two libaries as you said :
no errors occur after installation.
Hey ,
I have installed MM on mir Pi Zero W with this tutorial :
after that my Pi output is :
pi@magicmirror:~/MagicMirror $ npm start

But the Midori starts and says that there is no config.js file. So it seems to be running ?!?
If I move the config.js.sample to config.js the Midori screen ist completley black…
Could please someone help me
