@Anhalter42 Ok, it’s all good, I just took the ipWhitelist section from the sample pasted it in and now I have a working mirror that sporadically gives me game of thrones quotes! My office at work is now much brighter!

@Anhalter42 I’ve got it mostly up and running on Pi 2 now, my only issue now is it’s loading a black screen with no info, the terminal says launching application and then access denied to IP address 0.0.0.0/0 I have no idea what’s going on now!

@Mykle1 I’m wondering if the problem was actually that I was using a Pi 0, I’m testing now on a Pi 2 and I’ve run the automatic installer, though it is now just sitting doing absolutely nothing, the last thing it said is:

>node-gyp rebuild > build_log.txt 2>&1 || exit 0

And now it’s just sitting there. It hasn’t bought the prompt back up yet so maybe I’m being impatient.

@Mykle1 said in Config.js file Syntax:

Your installation of MM belongs as follows, and so the path to your config.js file

pi@raspberry ~/MagicMirror/config/config.js

When I first started using Linux I was taught the very bad habit of switching to the root user and doing everything as root, so I moved the file into where it needs to be in /home/pi but I still have the same problem

var config = {
    port: 8080,
    ipWhitelist: [],

        {
            module: "calendar",
            header: "CWG  Pi",
            position: "top_left",
            config: {

                    }
                ]
            }
        },
        {

            }
        },
        {
            module: "currentweather",
            position: "top_right",
            config: {

                locationID: "2652381",  //ID from http://www.openweathermap.org/help/city_list.txt
                appid: "39ab36a3fa513354fbe406263f175c07"
            }
        }
    ]
};

Everything is ok according to jslint but something has got to be not working. Incidentally if I use the sample file and don’t change anything I have the same problem.

I’m having this exact problem, but I’ve used a linter to check for errors and there are none, and my file is in /var/www/html/MagicMirror/config/config.js, I have no idea what I’m doing wrong!
