@Stacy you have a synthax error in the config. Just check it by running

npm run config:check

from the magicmirror directory.
OR post your compliments part of the config here.

@MadScientist I have now ordered the Mirastar from Brigla for a really great price of 40 €. Had to cut one side by 0.5 cm to get the lower freight fee :-)
I chose this one with lower transmission because the mirror will be in a room without windows, only one LED ceiling light.
Let’s make a comparison when we have them.

@carltonb said in Failure of v2.2.0:

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.

Where exactly does it crash? I can’t follow you. I also can’t find the error in the pasted code above.
Does it just stop where the code stops and not go on?

Thanks Tom for the Tip. I think I will also order from this site, since the local glazier wants to have more than 100€ for a quite small mirror.
The question now is, which one is better for which lighting?

Mirastar:
Thickness: 4mm or 6mm
Reflection: >58%
Transmission: 3%

Mirropane:
Thickness: 6mm
Transmission: 8%

I would assume with lower lighting you’d need a lower transmission value?

Shouldn’t the Mirastar transmission be dependent on the thickness?

@illskool

How long ago was your last update?

Just to be sure, have you tried @Mykle1’s solution, which seems to help in most of the cases this has happened in recent months?

var config = {
    address: "0.0.0.0", 
    port: 8080,
    ipWhitelist: [],

adding the “address” part on the top of the config? This seems to be mandatory for the newer versions of MM.

Also, be sure to have no syntax error in your config.
Run

npm run config:check

from your MM directory and see of there are no errors.
Done all that?

@Mitch1138 said in After upgrade (v2.1.1) multiple calendars not displaying:

Edit this file:
/home/pi/MagicMirror/node_modules/rrule-alt/lib/rrule.js

• Go to line 56 or search for the first occurance of “ORDINAL_BASE” and change this line:
  ORDINAL_BASE: new Date(1970, 0, 1), ORDINAL_BASE: new Date(1000, 0, 1), (set it to a lower year like 1900, I used 1000)
• Then restart your magic mirror

This resolved the same problem for me. Thanks!

@cirdan

Hi cirdan,
I’d like to say THANK YOU for the module. I was searching for this for about a year now, also made a thread here asking for it.
Let me also say, this also works for parts of Germany close to the Netherlands (I live close to Duisburg).

I would suggest to present this in the “modules” section for more recognition.
I’d also like to contribute to it, thinking about the possibility for users to show bar graphs or line graphs.
Will send a pull request on github when successful.

Great idea Mykle1! Thanks in advance for the effort :-)

The function is not that new.
I’m using it for a few months now, I’d guess.

Hi red43,
You should at first try to have a running system WITH a proper internet connection before installing the mirror.
I would highly suggest to first read through the setup of a wifi connection. There’s tons of material to learn this on the internet.
It’s advisable for beginners to setup wifi in the pixel desktop environment and not in the console.
Theres much that can be broken when setting up wifi in the console. I have quite some frustrating experience with that.

So:

• set up a system.
• boot, and in the pixel desktop go to the wifi symbol (upper right corner) and setup wifi.
• update and upgrade the system
• install the mirror via the console.
• Have fun!

That’s how I would do it.
Beginning from scratch now is supposedly faster than trying to repair the situation from here on, although you’d learn more with the latter :-)

Without being able to give the reason (since I haven’t tried stretch), I’d suggest to try out what the system asked of you.
You want to learn, after all:-)

So go ahead with

sudo apt --fix-broken install

What does that give you?

For the next time: I’d suggest, after setting up a new system, at first do a

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade

to get your system up-to-date.
