I started from scratch, loading MMM-Spotify first to my mirror and it works with no issues… sorry I didn’t try that sooner. Thanks again!

@Sean Thanks.

I’ve tried a couple things…

through ssh i tried the link on my laptop browser, and I got an error displayed on the page of “INVALID_CLIENT: Invalid client”.

And on my Mirror, through the command line i executed node first_auth.js and the browser opened up to login to Spotify (this is a good sign, haven’t got this far yet), however, when I enter my Spotify Acct info I get the same error as above, Invalid Client.

@Sean I really appreciate the reply.

Im new so maybe I didn’t convey my issue/logs correctly. As I mention above, when I try to execute Step 4, I get the error below…

pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Spotify $ node first_auth.js
[SPOTIFY_AUTH] creating server { USERNAME: 'MyName',
  CLIENT_ID: 'My_ID',

  AUTH_PORT: '8888',
  SCOPE:

  TOKEN: './MyName_token.json' }

At this point the terminal just stalls out. Hope this clarifies the above, my configs are still above. Thanks again

Hi!

I have been trouble shooting an install of MMM-Spotify for a few days now and I can’t seem to authorize/authenticate the token…

When executing Step 4 of the install Get Auth;

cd ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Spotify node first_auth.js

My terminal hangs up and I need to CTRL-C to get out.

pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $ npm start dev

My 8080 port is already in use causing an error? I’ve followed the installation procedure and verified my callback in Spotify Dev is copy and pasted as http://localhost:8888/callback
