Every few hours I get "ERROR:network_service_instance_impl.cc(916)] Network service crashed, restarting service"

@TvE it’s been running for 25 hours so far:

I am still tweaking my config, however, my approach was the following:

1. I updated from Rapbian Buster to Bullseye
2. That broke my Raspberry Pi 3b+'s WiFi connection (seems like a known bug https://forums.raspberrypi.com/viewtopic.php?t=325484), so I removed connman package and installed network-manager and connected to the WiFi. If you install network-manager, you will also want to disable the MAC randomization:
   To disable the WiFi MAC randomization, create the following file using the this command:

sudo nano /etc/NetworkManager/conf.d/100-disable-wifi-mac-randomization.conf

and paste the following content inside:

[connection]
wifi.mac-address-randomization=1
[device]
wifi.scan-rand-mac-address=no

Save the changes and continue.

3. I backed up my MM config and modules folder and started with a fresh install of MM 2.18
4. I started MM with the default config - no luck, it was crashing every minute
5. I started removing the default modules and installing the ones that I had before
6. I was observing the same behavior as you did - the default modules that needed network connection, when fetching data were breaking the network stack somehow … I edited the config to enter my calendar and newsfeed URLs and that seemed to fixed the issue. It might be something in the response of the default calendar and/or newsfeed … but that is just my speculation.

I also have pulled all the latest updates for every module that I had installed previously just to make sure that I am all up to date.

Ever since as you can see, my MM has been running steadily. Definitely not an SoC temp issue, since I never had anything than the stock aluminum radiators on the Pi and it has been running for 3-4 years 24/7 already.

I wouldn’t have decided to upgrade to bullseye if it was not a requirement for the new version of MMM-GoogleAssistant.

Anyways, I hope that this helps.

P.S. I am in Sofia, so the date/time in my log is GMT +02:00

@TvE I was jumping for joy way too soon. I took out my SD card to make a backup of it and when I put it back in, MagicMirror started restarting every other minute just like before. No changes were made whatsoever. I am now very confused …

Today I got a new error message “GPU process isn’t usable. Goodbye.”:

@Ivanov_d got no idea, but try this from web search

edit package.json

edit the “start” line

after electron add

--no-sandbox

with a space around it

I usually don’t do this and dig to the bottom of the problem, but this time I gave up and reverted back to Raspbian Buster and all my issues were solved. It seems that there are still some issues with RPi3b+ and Bullseye.
