MagicMirror Autostart Error

qqqqqqqq

I’m trying to make MagicMirror Autostart at boot, by following the guide on github using pm2.
I worked once, but now I get this error.

Also, I tried starting it using npm start; the mirror worked fine, but this is the error.

MagicMirror will not quit, but it might be a good idea to check why this happened. Maybe no internet connection?

Inspite of this, the mirror showed me the latest news, but not the calendar. :/

Any help on this?

EADDRINUSE means there is another process running on port 8080

Please run netstat -lntu on your raspberry in terminal and check what processes are running on port 8080

@yawns said in MagicMirror Autostart Error:

EADDRINUSE means there is another process running on port 8080

Please run netstat -lntu on your raspberry in terminal and check what processes are running on port 8080

maybe the MMM-Remote Control ?
I’ll try the command when I get home.

Btw, what does this mean? Is there something wrong?

ERROR! Could not find main module js file.

I’m just guessing, but I imagine that since the bootup ran into an error (address/port in use) it could not load its files and as such could not continue proper boot.
