[ERROR] unable to write js/positions.js

Although it’s not related to your problem - I have a lot of trouble getting MM to run on the 512MB Pi3 A+.

It freezes often - possibly it’s bad h/w or sd card although it all tests fine - but after several days of running and it ends up frozen and inaccessible. (ie can’t ssh to it, etc unless I restart it)

I tried using some of the lower memory options instead of using electron without much success. It runs for a little longer but eventually still dies. None of my Pi3 B models with the 4GB RAM have had similar problems - so I tend to think it is something related to RAM

Just to say that you may find the experience in running on the Pi 3 A+ to be “complicated”

@emlowe what os level are you running?
i recommend the 32 bit legacy image

if you use my install script i will increase the swap spacr

@emlowe yes, i would try the 32 but legacy image on bullseye

bookworm seems about 500m bigger

sdetweil

@emlowe out of memory

I have had that problem before and it was a bad card. One other time it was a bad USB drive… Might try a different sdcard.

sdetweil

@plainbroke good point, I have had a number of sd card failures over the years, and they have all become read-only
