@chris1971 Your welcome. It felt good to be able offer some help instead of always asking for it. Good luck finding your problem.

@sdetweil Sam, Thanks for the pointer. I looked for the instructions but missed them some how. Tried to install a different image yesterday but it crashed with missing files. I’ll let you know how this works out for me. I’m practicing right now before I try to do it on my RPI5.

There are at least four modules on the list dealing with the DHT-22. J0n4e
MMM-DHT22, ckoutavas MMM-DHT, cslev MMM-loldht22. Just do a search for dht and they will pop up.

Good luck

Yes, that fixed it . Thanks for the help.

I thinks these should help you.

Restarting your MagicMirror²
pm2 restart mm

Stopping your MagicMirror²
pm2 stop mm

Show the MagicMirror² logs
pm2 logs mm

Show the MagicMirror² process information
pm2 show mm

Sam, thanks for the info on the developers window. I’ve looked at it briefly for a couple other issues but had not thought about it for this. I’ll give it a look. The only problem with it is that I need a microscope to read anything.

Thanks

I’m trying to position MMM-RAIN-MAP so it does not cover part of the module above it. I have tried 3 suggested custom.css entries with no help.

.MMM-RAIN-MAP {
  margin-top: 20px; /* Move down by 20px */
  /* or */
  top: 20px; /* If positioned relatively or absolutely */
}

.MMM-RAIN-MAP {
  position: relative;
  top: 20px; /* Moves the map down by 20px */
}

They do not seem to have any affect on the position. When I start mm MMM-RAIN-MAP seems to be lower on the screen and then it jumps up to cover the bottom part of the calendar module above it.

What else can I try to get it to position where I want it?

TIA, Ron R

I’m not sure you will be able to do that easily. I’m trying to get a browser to load on a PI zero 2 W because Firefox and Chrome take up too much room to fit in the tiny 512MB Ram. Even running ssh and not using the GUI it is taking close to an hour to install Midori but that may be their server because other things have worked much faster.

Good Luck with your project.

My whole life in computers, 50 years, has been with weird problems. I just try to plug along and ask questions when needed. Thanks for your help.

@msimon360 To pull the window in from the sides I grabbed the right edge of the window and dragged it to the left. The pictures started to change from the wide format to their original dimensions. I was setting it up to run all day with family on Thanksgiving and that was not a viable solution for each frame.

So I changed to MMM-ImagesPhotos. Had a problem with it to start with where it did not display anything. I am running it is ‘fullscreen-under’ it presents smaller format pictures in their actual size instead of enlarging them to full screen and cutting off heads. The problem with no pictures was when I set the path to the ‘uploads’ directory in config.js the system concatenated the string three times and could not find the path, I wonder why? :) I found that problem by going back into the logs to find the error in the module setup. I went back into config.js and deleted my entry for the path and left it with an empty string “”. Then all my pictures popped up like they were supposed to.

Yes, Sam, I had to manually go into the config.js because MMM-Config/configure would not reset it when I cleared the entry on the form.

I am really happy with MMM-ImagesPhotos. I was going to suggest putting an option to display the file name on the picture but I got around it by annotating the pics with names for family that has not met those in the pics. It worked much better than depending on the file name.

Discovered that if I pulled the window in from the side it would change the size of the picture back to it’s original size and things looked normal. It’s not a good fix but it makes the pictures look much better.

Ran git checkout on the one file listed in the error, “module_installer/install_module.cmd”. Results below. Then ran git pull again and it said everything was up to date.

Thanks for your help.

ron@ron-16-U:~/magicmirror/mounts/modules/MMM-Config/module_installer$ git checkout install_module.cmd
Updated 1 path from the index

I have recently done 3 module updates and all of them threw an error when I did the ‘git pull’
Below is the output of the last upgrade. It indicates I have made changes to files I have never touched intentionally. I have done the “git stash” to clear the error and completed the upgrades. I went looking for a file that may give me an idea of what was changed. With my limited knowledge that led nowhere.

This is on MM 2.33 running in docker. It has happened on both my laptop and the RPI 5.

I appreciate any info someone has.
Thanks, Ron R
