MMM-Pages module all showing on one page

hahawoooooo

@sdetweil Good catch on that one - there are two MMM-Pages listed in the third party module website, and I was using your fork which is at 1.0.0. I uninstalled that version and installed the 1.3.0 version, but still having the same issue with all modules on one page.

I need to get a bit more sleep and look again just to make sure I did everything correctly after the changes.

One thing I noticed is I’m getting socket.io connection errors in the logs. where it repeatedly tries connecting and then fails. I can grab the log texts when I get back home tonight if that’s anywhere related to the problem.

@hahawoooooo I think this is a totally different problem…

are you using node 22.18.0 on the system?
node inside this electron version is 22.18

are you using a browser or is this the electron page started by npm start?

hahawoooooo

Node version is 22.18.0, and I’m using pm2 to start it. I changed the mm.sh file to open it via firefox.

sdetweil

@hahawoooooo so you are doing npm run server and then launching firefox…
or is this my runstart.sh and u set the env variable for firefox as the browser over server

hahawoooooo

@sdetweil To be honest, I need to get a bit smarter about the difference between the different start options (npm, pm2, mmpm, running over server). I’m currently just running pm2 start locally and not running a server.

@hahawoooooo

MM is a server with a browser auto started (npm start, electron is the browser), and with any browser connecting too
or
MM can be a server (npm run server) with any browser connecting from anywhere

MM is just an app…

you can configure the system to start an app on boot multiple ways

you can edit the system startup settings,
different on window, mac, linx (and diff linux versions)

OR you can run ANOTHER app, that does all that work for you
pm2 (node process manager v2)
it can start many different apps (mm , mmpm, and any other tool you like,

I have a spotify plugin on another mirror app, it can use the spotify api to play, pause, blah blah
if I install and start the spotify player daemon… (librespot or raspotify on pi)
I use pm2 to launch that too , and I can play on this machine.

the cool thing about pm2 is YOU don’t need to know HOW the system autostart works,
pm2 handles all that for you…
