    I also am having issues with auto start of the script.

    New install on raspberry pi 3 B.

    The manual start, stop and restart commands all work and when I run the pm2 save command, it does not error.

    After a reboot the mm.sh does not autostart.

      Also having this issue. pm2 start mm.sh works. MM2 boot up screen appears on start up. But loads to desktop.

        I am having this problem too. This is the 4th time I’ve installed MM on a RPI 3 and I don’t know what’s changed recently, but it’s not loading at boot. I followed the AutoStart wiki to the T but it won’t autostart.

        @MichMich @KirAsh4 @cowboysdude @ianperrin @yawns @Jopyth @morozgrafix - can any of you guys weigh in on this? This is kind of a big issue that it seems many folks are having.

          I have the same issue, i did put java scrip on startup, i did look on the forum and #sebzx10r, suggest the same solution.

          https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/1094/pm2-mm2-not-starting-on-start-up/15

          In Raspian click Menu,Preferences,Main Menu Editor
          Click Preferences and check Default applications for LXSession
          Click OK and close main menu editor
          Now click Menu and Under Preferences click on Default applications for LXSession
          LXSession configuration opens
          Click Autostart
          Under Manual autostarted applications paste in your java command line
          click add
          close the LXSession configuration application and reboot your pi
          your java app should run after reboot
          

          Hope this help.
          Cheers,

              I have the script working, but the only way to start mm on boot, was set

              pm2 start mm
              

              on LXSession, but yes now once i boot my Pi, mm start without any problem.

                @mpires so in the LXSession configuration menu under ‘autostart’, simply add the line ‘pm2 start mm’ and it’ll run at boot?
