the next release will upgrade electron and a bunch of other components, and the staging is starting now.

so, any pulls of the develop branch will get the next electron update…

@sdetweil can you give me a screenshot where I find the solved-button?

Edit: Sorry, first I had to mark the question as question. Than there was the solved button. Well, this is kind of hidden 🙂

I use a samba share from a linux box to all my devices and systems… window, pi, mac.

i have access to the share on my mac… BUT not if pm2 starts MM… I get access denied…
if I stop the pm2 instance and then start MM with npm start it works fine… this is the
MMM-ImagesPhotos module, with a soft link (ln -s) to the share from the module folder.

in 2.13 we changed over to the node-ical calendar parser to fix a bunch of problems, and add support for microsoft timezone names…

we didn’t know if this would impact other calendar modules, as we left in the ical (ical.js) calendar parser.

we intend to remove the ical parser on the next release…(Jan 1 approx)

in 2.13 we are fixing the calendar handling for multiple timezones and non IANA timezone names.
but to do this we are switching the library we use from ical.js to node-ical.

currently in the develop branch the ical.js library is removed…

any non-default calendar modules using the ical library will fail…

are there any? CalendarExt2 uses its own copy of ical.js
MMM-MyCalendar uses vendor/ical (which is broken already in 2.12)

2.13 is coming next week… help

see https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/13669/new-test-calendar-ics-parser-available

anybody that know anything about mac file system permissions might be able to help me…

I have samba server share that is connected on logon to my catalina box.
using the login items page

if I open a terminal window, the share is there and usable

I also have MM installed and the MMM-ImagesPhotos module. which has symbolic links to folders on the samba share

if I start MM from the command prompt, via npm start, all works ok,
if I start MM with pm2, (which does an npm start from the batch file), the share is not accessible…

with this error reported from my code

exception=Error: EPERM: operation not permitted, scandir '/selectedpics' exception=Error: EPERM: operation not permitted, scandir '/sp'

this link seems to say if I could find ‘the application’ I could enable access
https://osxdaily.com/2018/10/09/fix-operation-not-permitted-terminal-error-macos/

I cannot find pm2 (it is outside my user space) /usr/lib/bin/pm2
I tried making the electron.app thing as the application, but still doesn’t work.

the share opens correctly at login
pm2 starts MM correctly at login

SO close…

@sdetweil said in white screen flash on startup:

electronOptions:{backgroundColor:’#00000001’},

Not working for me either 🙂 But thank you for trying. Hopefully we will see a solution, my mirror is only on between certain times (with a Google Home routine and Sonoff switch) and the white bg is super annoying.

as part of every update, we run some automated tests… one step is to check if all the terms used in the default modules have translations for all the supported languages… we have not kept up with the overall updates

so, any of you that have the skill and energy can update a language file in the MagicMirror/translations folder
here is the list reported , as reported in issue https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/issues/1843

for example
Missing Translations for language fi: PRECIP,UPDATE_INFO_MULTIPLE,UPDATE_INFO_SINGLE

so, stuff (3 things) is missing from MagicMirror/translations/fi.json
if u look at en.json, u will see the base list, and how they are coded.

so, u can update as many files as u like and send them to me (same userid as here on gmail)
and I will collect them and make a pull request. with your name next to all that you provide.
or u can fork the repo and edit as many files as u can, and create your own pull request back.

thank you for all who can help

@lavolp3 one could just erase the files… its just a lot to learn for the newer folks, who are already swamped…

@sdetweil

Glad it was that simple a fix and not the Pi itself. 👍

I added a check for textmode os config (no xwindows)

try the updater script… lets get it tested

https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/10859/new-update-upgrade-script-ready-for-testing

watchdog has a problem… removing… have not crashed since increase swap space…

will close for now as I work on the watchdog socket problem

@mieserwicht yeh, had to escape the - on -dpms… try again

adding again, yes, it got an empty result due to the error
