MagicMirror no longer launches

@RIKKO14 How do you start MagicMirror?

[RIKKO14]

@mumblebaj with pm2

[mumblebaj]

@RIKKO14 You should then be able to run pm2 logs --lines 50 and that should return the details from the pm2 log. Hopefully it has any error details.

@RIKKO14 because MagicMirror now uses a pm2 library inside, we have a version conflict…(I think)

do

sudo npm install pm2 -g

then reboot

[RIKKO14]

@sdetweil So, I do :

sudo npm install pm2 -g

then I reboot my Pi but the problem stile the same, I Have this screen :

[sdetweil]

@RIKKO14 your second screen is only the top.
open a terminal window and
do

pm2 stop all
pm2 flush 
pm2 status

should show MagicMirror as the pgm to run

then do

pm2 start MagicMirror 

wait

does it appear on screen?

if not do

pm2 stop all
pm2 logs --lines=50 >somefile.txt 
 ctrl-c to stop log output

show content of somefile.txt here

BR CAREFUL some log info will expose your calendar url…
edit somefile.txt and xxx out the private part.of url
