Magic mirror is not showing up

[CoopDog1712]

@sdetweil after i installed electron@17.2.0 then started it, this came up

then i did start pm2 start 4, and it started, but was still a blank screen

[sdetweil]

@CoopDog1712 says something is still running…

you didn’t do pm2 stop all

after doing test

ps -ef | grep -i magicmirror

should return nothing

[CoopDog1712]

@sdetweil whoops…
ok is did pm2 stop all and then entered that line of code you gave me and got this

[sdetweil]

@CoopDog1712

ok do

we will delete 1 entry so you don’t have 2 trying to run at the same time
and then reboot

pm2 delete  1
pm2 save
sudo reboot 

[CoopDog1712]

@sdetweil k i rebooted, then i started it up. nothing came up, still a blank screen so i did pm2 stop all and then did pm2 logs --lines=50 and these came up

[sdetweil]

@CoopDog1712

pm2 status again

also, how did you install mm? manual or my automated script?

did you setup MM autostart before adding pm2?

ps -ef | grep -i magicmirror

[CoopDog1712]

@sdetweil i installed it manually, and no it didnt

[sdetweil]

@CoopDog1712 what is the output of pm2 status?

[CoopDog1712]

@sdetweil

[sdetweil]

@CoopDog1712 ok, pm2 flush

then

cd ~/MagicMirror
npm start 

[CoopDog1712]

@sdetweil k i did that and it was still a blank screen, so i stoped it and did pm2 logs --lines=50 and got this

also would it be worth a try to just completely delete everything and then start from scratch?

[sdetweil]

@CoopDog1712 yeh, I don’t know whats going on

do

pm2 delete 4
pm2 save -f
rm -rf MagicMirror

then run my install script

see
https://github.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts

it will prompt if u want pm2 again
and for turn off screen saver

does everything

[CoopDog1712]

@sdetweil do you mean 0 in stead of 4?

[sdetweil]

@CoopDog1712 whatever the number is . it was 4…

or use the name
MagicMirror

whatever shows in

pm2 status

[CoopDog1712]

@sdetweil do you mean 0 in stead of 4

[sdetweil]

@CoopDog1712 come on man…

whatever the number is or use the NAME of the entry instead of the number

[CoopDog1712]
