@binderth said in Problems restarting MagicMirror (Port 8080 in use ...):

Do I need pm2?

Is optional. If you installed by script and choice. After that you can configurate mannually.

@ostfilinchen That version don’t have the feature for use pm2 for process control by installer script. What is your problem in 2.1.0?

@roramirez my Problem is this error

@ostfilinchen What pm2 version are using?. There are other process to start control of MagicMirror?

Please, send some log lines of pm2 and what show you
pm2 status

[ostfilinchen]

@roramirez i think the Problem is the pm2. My in Memory Version is 2.0.19 and my local Version is 2.3.0.

if i do pm2 update it updates the Version, but if i restart the pi, i have 2 Versions again.

[roramirez]

@ostfilinchen So stranger. What is for you memory version?

Note: The last stable release of pm2 is 2.2.1.

I recomend use the last version stable. In my case, the 2.1.5, work fine the restart action.

[ostfilinchen]

@roramirez thanks for the Information. how can i update to 2.1.5?

[roramirez]

@ostfilinchen by npm

sudo npm install -g pm2@2.1.5

First remove previous version installed
