Hey everyone,

I did a fresh, clean install using the automated script and on first time startup, MM worked with the default modules. Then I tried adding MMM-DailyXKCD and on restarting, I found that something went wrong. I’m only presented with a fullscreen black window titled “electron”, but apart from that, nothing ever happens. This is the terminal output when launching from there:

pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $ DISPLAY=:0 npm start

> magicmirror@2.9.0 start /home/pi/MagicMirror
> sh run-start.sh

MagicMirror will not quit, but it might be a good idea to check why this happened. Maybe no internet connection?
If you think this really is an issue, please open an issue on GitHub: https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/issues
Launching application.

Any ideas as to what’s happening here?

That seems to have been a copy/paste-error. My terminal history shows it with the underscore. To make sure, I tried it once again, but still get

pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Sunrise-Sunset $ cp node_modules/jquery/dist/jquery.js .
cp: cannot stat 'node_modules/jquery/dist/jquery.js': No such file or directory

@sdetweil: Thank you so much for your help here. I’m having the exact same problem as @pugsly did, but unfortunately your suggestions seem to not do the trick. I was wondering if you could help me out, too. So far I got:

                        {
			module: "MMM-Sunrise-Sunset",
			position: "bottom_bar",
			config: {
				apiKey: "xxx", 				
				latitude: "xx.03586",
				longitude: "xx.06379",
				timezone: "Europe/Berlin",
				layout: "inline"
				}
		},

My screen stays black, though, and the developer console is giving me this:

Uncaught ReferenceError: $ is not defined
at Class.updateSun (MMM-Sunrise-Sunset.js:33)
at Class.start (MMM-Sunrise-Sunset.js:12)
at startModules (loader.js:55)
at loader.js:40
at HTMLLinkElement.stylesheet.onload (loader.js:200)

I even tried executing your suggestions as root, thinking that I must’ve done something wrong, but I got the same error messages as before:

root@raspberrypi:/home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Sunrise-Sunset# npm install jquery
npm WARN saveError ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '/home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/package.json'

What am I missing here?

Hey, total newbie to everything coding- and mirror-related here. I tried to get suncalc to work while also trying @retroflex 's suggested layout, but whatever I do, nothing ever show’s up on my MM screen. The module just doesn’t do anything. Do I need to also clone the original suncalc repository? Where to, if so?

So far, what I got is this:

{
			module: 'mmm-suncalc',
			position: "lower_third",
			//classes: "default everyone small dimmed",
			header: "Sonne",
			config: {
				latitude: 51.03586,
				longitude: 7.06379,
				text: "Aufgang: <dawn> - <sunrise>. Untergang: <sunset> - <dusk>"
				//'<table>' + 
				//'<tr><td>&#9728;</td><td>Går upp:</td><td><dawn> - <sunrise></td></tr>' +
				//'<tr><td>&#9790;</td><td>Går ner:</td><td><sunset> - <dusk></td></tr>' +
				//'</table>'
				},
		},

Does that look alright?
