MMM-PIR-Sensor restart problem

[trividar]

Now i have disconnect the cables from pir sensor and restart my pi. After reboot my pi my Magicmirror start automaticlly normal and after 2 seconds they got again black. That crazy thing is, I press ctrl+w and the blackscreen goes away and the the Magicmirror works “under” the blackscreen well…

@trividar try changing the port in the config.js from 8080 to 8888 and reboot.

[trividar]

@paviro I have now the same error just with 8888.

How do you start your Mirror?

[trividar]

with autostart (from wiki).

[MichMich]

It somehow probably starts multiple instances. Disable the auto start and try to get it working manually first.

[trividar]

how can I do that?

[MichMich]

@trividar pm2 stop mm

check if it’s running pm2 list

No instances should be running at that point. then start the MM using npm start from your MagicMirror folder from a terminal running on your PI (so not via SSH)

Moved this part of the topic into a new thread since it has nothing to do with the module.

If i stop with pm2 stop mm and start my MM with npm start from terminal everything works fine, but without the PIR sensor. If i connect the sensor to my pi i get the blackscreen.
