@rkorell Again, thank you Sam.
I know what you mean, I usually act as you said.
I like to help other, in the subject where I have knowledge.
So, thank you again

@sdetweil Ok but I wanna just offer a coffe for your kind and your time spent with that.

Do you suggest me to fix the old magic mirror folder or just rm it?

@sdetweil
Sam… I don’t know how to saying it.
I figure out the issue.

After your last message I tried what you suggest.
With the default cfg I had no errors, with mine I had errors.

So I checked again and again the config…
and I find an underscore _ right at the start of the config

npm config:check told me “no syntax errors” and that confusing me.

When I edit it I use nano editor
I do “sudo nano config.js” and I press CTRL + _ to jump at the 250 line.
Might be one of the latest time I opened it and press _ a bit faster than CTRL and I add it for error.

In addition I notice that when I open config.js with nano editor the green cursor is, clearly, at the start of the first line… EXACTLY on the undescore _ and it hides it.

I’m really sorry for bothering you with that.
How can I buy you a coffee ?
Thanks

@sdetweil

That’s incredible… I did it, everything goes good… no issues but when I start it

npm start

npm run start:x11

@sdetweil
Before writing here I made backups, locally and on github, like you taught me in the past :)

Now I’ll try

@sdetweil
I’m sure.I don’t think SolarPicture could be the problem.

Yes, the error keep showing

@sdetweil

@sdetweil

which node gave me
/home/MYMIRR/.nvm/versions/node/v22.15.0/bin/node

n gave me
node/20.18.1

Use up/down arrow keys to select a version, return key to install, d to delete, q to quit

nvm gave me

Node Version Manager (v0.39.5)

Note: refers to any version-like string nvm understands. This includes :

• full or partial version numbers, starting with an optional “v” (0.10, v0.1.2 , v1)
• default (built-in) aliases: node, stable, unstable, iojs, system
• custom aliases you define with nvm alias foo

followed by a lot of options

@sdetweil I’m sorry :(

I did it what you suggest and config:check gave me a module error again. Different than one before

npm run config:check

magicmirror@2.31.0 config:check
node js/check_config.js

node:internal/modules/cjs/loader:1404
throw err;
^

Error: Cannot find module ‘ajv’
Require stack:

After “require stack” there are other lines, if you need it, tell me.
Thanks
