MM reports being 119 commits behind. OK!
Went to https://docs.magicmirror.builders/getting-started/upgrade-guide.html
Did the suggested backups OK
Went to :~/MagicMirror $ entered git pull && npm install --only=prod --omit=dev

Got this: fatal: Unable to read current working directory: No such file or directory

Looked at sdetweil’s script, not sure from the instructions if it need to be
run from :~/MagicMirror $ or elsewhere?

Thank you.

@sdetweil

renamed MM to MM.JAN22

renamed MM.save to MM

All good, thank you.

@sdetweil

That’s working good too.

Do I keep MM, or MM.save?

@sdetweil

That’s given a very basic, but working MM

bash: zip: command not found

Zipped it on Windows, renamed and emailed.

@sdetweil

That’s a huge file, what’s the best way to send it?

@sdetweil

Ok, I’ll do that then.

Do we know what the cause of all this was, was it something to do with a mismatch in versions of node and npm?

@sdetweil

Good morning Sam.

Tried that late yesterday, and yes, it works.
And this morning, I copied

custom.css

from

/home/pi/MagicMirror.save/css   

to

/home/pi/MagicMirror/css

This too is working perfectly.

Is there anything else to do, housekeeping maybe, or is that it now?

@sdetweil

Trying to rename config.js to sample,

Error when getting information for file “/home/pi/MagicMirror/config/config.js”: No such file or directory
Error renaming file /home/pi/MagicMirror/config/config.js: No such file or directory

Yet I can see it, I can query it for permissions…

Back tomorrow.
Richard.

@richard238

I have to leave shortly Sam.

Thank you for all your help with this today, I’ll try again tomorrow.

Richard.
