Have you tried accessing the MM-interface on an other device? So if you enter “http://IP_OF_YOUR_PI:8080” in the browser of your computer for instance, does it work? I had a similar problem, where the interface only worked on other devices…
But you know that electron is not working on the RPi 1 right? So you will probably have a hard time trying to get this to work yourself on a Pi1…

Alright, initially I wanted to setup the MM next to Jasper [1] for TTS and STT, but then again I cannot find any use-case for that when the mirror already displays everything relevant by itself XD… Therefore, I decided to kill the whole Jasper stuff and made a clean install. With this it worked like a charm now. Should have taken a look at the modules in advance. I was not a ware of such an active community. Awesome stuff, thx a lot!

@KirAsh4: Your instructions work perfectly for the RPi2 as well ;)

Wow haven’t come across these instructions yet. Seem quite detailed. I will give it a try as soon as possible and will let you know if it worked.
Thanks for the quick reply :)

Hi!

I have a problem when trying to display the MM interface on the RPi. The server is up an running (no problems) and I can access it from any other machine in the network. Interface works perfectly there. However, when i try to access it locally on the RPi, all i get is a white blank page. Tried two different browsers now, Epiphani and Midori, both show the same blank page. I tried to access it using “localhost” as well as the actual private IP-Address directly (and the correct port => using the default port 8080). No luck.
When using electron I get the error EADDRINUSE for address 0.0.0.0 (in this [1] file, line 70)… But I guess that’s not the actual problem because I cannot even access it, using the browser. However, I checked whether there actually are other programs blocking the socket using “lsof -i TCP:8080”. No entries there before pm2 starts (unless i acces sthe page with another machine of coarse)…
I’m slowly running out of ideas now. I guess that there are maybe some compatibility problems between the server and the browsers on the RPi. Otherwise I cannot explain why it works on other machines.

Is there maybe somebody who had the same (or a similar) issue, that can give me advice?

I’ve found one post of a guy (Timo Pak) that had the same problem 2 years ago in the comments of this article [2]. He wrote about a zip-file he got from somebody that worked (very detailed haha).

My platform is a RPi2 running Jessie.
