@harney These look great. I have built something similar on larger screens.
Can you please let me know what models of the 5 and 7" screens you are using.

Thanks
carltonb

Very nice looking.
I have never used the navigation buttons. Can you please explain what each one links to.
Thank you

Thanks so much.
Worked fine.
I had to tweak the code to this to make a difference.

.clock .time span {
  margin-left: 100px;
}

Cock Module.
My design is working fine but I am having a heck of a time formatting one component.
Currently my time for example reads the following in a 12hr format
12:28PM

Is there a way to add a space between the 8 and PM so it looks like
12:28 PM

Can not find in the css where I can change it if it is possible.
Thanks
carltonb

Thank you for the reply.
Can you tell me what I MIGHT BE LOOKING FOR.
There is a lot of code with errors and warnings both in the developers window and the pm2 logs.

I do not know what is a valid error and not.

Again thank you.

I am attempting to use this module but am having a probably basic problem.
The module works for about 10 minutes before the screen goes blank with my cursor arrow showing.
I am using this as a clock on a refurbished laptop screen. On the left I have a date/clock heavily modded with css. On the right I have the darksky weather module. All works for days without activating the background module.
Using the background module in which the jpg files are loaded in a separate directory and the script looks like this…

  {
    module: 'MMM-BackgroundSlideshow',
    position: 'fullscreen_below',
    config: {
      imagePaths: ['modules/images/'],
      transitionImages: true,
      randomizeImageOrder: true,
      backgroundSize: 'cover',
      slideshowSpeed: 60000
    }

After about 10 minutes the images stop and I have a blank screen with the cursor. I either have to do a reboot or an npm restart to get it going again, and then after another 10 minutes it stops. I have tried various pictures with the same problem happening.

Does anyone have a possible solution.
Thanks
Carltonb

Love what you have done. When finished can you post the modified css please.
Thanks

Is there a guide on how to do this.

Latest saga, though I am getting frustrated I am learning a lot about the process. I have looked at all the errors that are being given but do not know where to start.
If I do a pm2 start mm.sh system gives me a report but nothing happens on my screen.

Running 2017-07-05-raspbian-jessie. Desktop image.
Going to start again and see where I screwed up.

Just discovered that I have two installs of MM one in /home and one at /home/carltonb. Have to figure out why it is installed twice. When I did the bash for the install command I may not have specified directories. I will try again in a few hours.

Back home and started again.
Ran npm start in the /home/carltonb/MagicMirror directory here is the result

Followed cowboydude instructions for installing. This time it took about 10 minutes to install MM.
What is my next step.
Also thank all of you for taking the time to help a poor soul out.
carltonb

@cruunnerr Tried your method on step 10 it took almost 90 minutes to finish!!!
I then went to the page on Auto Starting. Followed the directions. Rebooted.
MagicMirror screen flashed for about 3 seconds, then it went to the desktop for another 3 to 4 seconds then it stopped at the command line.
If I run the logs it tells me

What step did I miss. It seems not to find the sh run-start.sh file. I am now so confused.
I will see how this sorts out over the weekend and will wait until Monday to try again.

@cruunnerr said in Failed at the magicmirror@2.2.2 start script ‘sh-run-start.sh’:

VNC

No NPM install or other necessary pi setup as listed on the site at Configuring the Raspberry Pi?

I too am keeping abreast of this. I have had 5 installs that went so well that after the update, I can not get it installed.
Are we the only ones having problems.
Do the install directions need to be changed. Luckily I have backed up every sd card so I am safe, but need to figure out if I do anything to them now (besides the MM upgrade) will they crash.

I too have the same problems. In another thread started a few days ago because I have the same issues.
Started with Stretch, then went back to an old Jessie Lite version.
I have done the automatic install, the manual install, as root and not as root.
All fail at the same place. I currently have 5 MM running on PI3, then the update came and tried on one device when it crashed. I will not touch the others until this is resolved.
If someone fixes this can they post the steps they used and a link to the image that they used as well.
This is getting very frustrating. All my mirrors went together in a matter of an hour or so with no problems. Setting the modules and css is another thing though.
Any help is very much appreciated.
carltonb

@Mykle1 Since as you said the OS makes no difference to me. So …
This is the file I d/l
2017-07-05-raspbian-jessie.zip 05-Jul-2017 13:05 1.5G
Install went fine, but again crashed when I tried to use this command. It crashes at the same point every time. See the file generation after I start the installer in the first post.

Get and install MagicMirror with the Automatic Installer:

curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/master/installers/raspberry.sh | bash

Might there be something wrong script that is trying to install it.
Is there another way to install it without using the Automatic Installer script.

carltonb

@Mykle1 Thanks, I will give it a try. Interesting that I have used the stretch version on 4 setups with no problem. Must be with the new version 2.2 that it has issues.
I will let you know the results.
carltonb

After a bunch of searching I finally found it at https://downloads.raspberrypi.org/raspbian_lite/images/raspbian_lite-2017-07-05/
Had to do a lot of digging. Seems it is outdated by strech.
Thanks

Pardon my ignorance but where would I find Jessie Lite. On the Pi website download all I am offered is this RASPBIAN STRETCH LITE or the version with the desktop.
