@sdetweil I did this. Nothing changed.

cd ~/MagicMirror
git fetch origin pull/3679/head:_fix_clipping
git switch _fix_clipping
npm run install-mm
# if you get an error error, rm package-lock.json
# and repeat the git switch
restart MM

@sdetweil I switched to the branch described in the other post and nothing changed. I switched back to main and I give up. Thanks very much for the help. I really appreciate it.

@sdetweil OK, so in the console I do see the message below over and over and over. That is the only thing that appears odd to me.

slicing events total maxcount = 10   Calendar_js:744
sorting events count =0 Calendar_js: 704

@sdetweil I am only using ssh. I will plug a keyboard into it.

I removed all calendars but the work one. It just says “Loading …”.

@sdetweil Thanks for the reply. Nope, not old events. 2 of the calendars have loaded. The work calendar just says “Loading …” on the Pi.

I made the changes here disabling IPV6 and they seem to work now.

disable IPV6

However I have one calendar that just says loading on the mirror and it doesn’t change. The log thinks it has pulled the calendar but it never displays.

I have 2 different Caldavs that I pull from the same server. One works fine the other always displays “loading …”. I have looked in the output from pms logs and I don’t see any errors relating to the calendar. It just says:
Calendar-fetcher: Broadcasting 64 events
I was wondering if there is anywhere else that I can look to find more errors that might explain what is happening. This has worked in the past and for some reason now it just won’t. I was thinking that perhaps there could be some character or entry in one of my calendar events that is causing an issue. But I don’t know where to go to find specific calendar errors. The mirror is running on a raspberry pi 3B

@theaddies I got it. VS code was a big help to see my errors. Also, for anyone else that stumbles upon this, you need to copy the permalink, paste that into the browser and then click raw. The link you get just clicking raw will not work.

@sdetweil Thanks for the reply. I saw that and fixed it. It still doesn’t work.

Re: Need more compliments? compliments.json

I have the following link:
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/theaddies/compliments/21e818b6d12a1b8f7e6328808946ce18b6bd3e02/text.json
and my config.js file looks like the following:

{module: "compliments",
                      position: "lower_third",
                              config: {
                              remoteFile :  "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/theaddies/compliments/21e818b6d12a1b8f7e6328808946ce18b6bd3e02/text.json"
                              }
              },

I cannot for the life of me figure out what is wrong. Please help.

I just updated my mirror today. It now fails to load. The log file output is below. I would appreciate any help.

@sdetweil OK So I went ahead and did the whole thing over again for the fourth time with the exact method you outlined. It works. It would be nice to somehow let the next poor sod who wants to waste 2 days of their life of the right way to do this on a pi2.

@theaddies

@sdetweil I am loathed to start the pi2 over again for the fourth time. here is what I have right now. I think I got MagicMirror and mm removed from the pm2. I installed mm when I thought things were not working.

The HDMI output still does not work. I was thinking now I would run the pm2 startup command although I am sure I already did it and then I would run fixuppm2.

@sdetweil I just followed the procedure on a pi4 and everything worked great.

@sdetweil I cannot get the pi to display anything via hdmi. my only access to it now is via ssh.

@sdetweil The screen has been black for an hour. When i reboot, the first thing I see is the MagicMirror logo. That is different than before. Before it booted into the raspian desktop and then the magicmirror loaded. It did take a while. Now, as I said above, I see the MagicMirror logo it seems to be loading and then the screen goes blank. It does not come back. ssh works, but the keyboard and mouse on the pi itself will not wake it up.

I did see the correct screen after I ran the command below, but I can’t do that now.

DISPLAY=:0 npm start
