Even this tread is old, but i have an issue with the starting of mm:

Everything worked well, then i installed MMM-CECControl.
I saved my config.js file bevor i entered the module line in there. But not as usual mm didn´t restart. Not even after a reboot of my raspberry.

Also when i start mm with
pm2 start mm
and
pm2 start MagicMirror
nothing happened.

i don´t know what i should do to start my mm as bevore…

@Seregeth

ok let’s start at the beginning

pm2 status

will show you the names and numbers of the managed apps. you can use either the name or number

now, let’s see if it’s a MagicMirror problem

do

pm2 stop all
cd ~/MagicMirror
npm start

if mm comes up but the screen is not correct, ctrl-m will minimize the mm screen
