Nothing showing but app is running
-
Hi,
I have just installed MagicMirror with all the guides. Also installed PM2 and fixed the scrips. Anyway. When I am trying to start MagicMirror nothing happens. It says it is running but nothing is showing on the screen. The only thing that happens is that the CPU goes from 0-3% CPU load to 25%. So I guess the app is actually running but not showing anything.
What could be the cause? I have tried both my 7" LCD-screen and my TV through HDMI.
Best regards

Well, I did a reinstall and now the mirror starts when executing command. It does NOT start on boot tho, so main problem gone but we got a new one…
I guess I use VNC? SSH on Putty!

Have you saved the current state of the PM2?
Run
pm2 start mm.sh pm2 save sudo reboot -
@mortenbirkelund Actually I have. Still doesn’t work. The only way I made it finally work was to add “@pm2 start mm.sh” in "/home/pi/.config/lxsession/LXDE/autostart "
I guess that is a OK solution?
-
@fiskaren Then i dont know what could be wrong. Perhaps someone else will see this post and can point you in the right direction.
Your solution will start MM each time the computer is started, where pm2 will only start MM, if it was running when the reboot was initiated. But if it works for you. -
updated today and now I have a similar issue. App is running but the screen is black. Ran apt-get update & apt-get upgrade in the hopes it would fix itself, but nope :)
