Mirror turning black after a while

[retroflex]

Short lived happiness it seemed… After a few minutes CPU is now back at 100% and memory use increasing. :(

Also tested after reboot of my Pi3 with the same results.

This is my config:

		{
			module: "MMM-ResRobot",
			position: "top_right",
			header: "",
			config: {
				routes: [
					{from: "740015970", to: "740015568"},
				],
				updateInterval: 2 * 60 * 1000,	// Update every second minute.
				maximumEntries: 6,  // Number of departures to show on screen
				truncateAfter: 5,   // A value > 0 will truncate direction name at first space after  characters. 0 = no truncation
				apiKey: "*******"  // Your ResRobot apiKey
			}
		},

But still, I am not using ResRobot,. and do have the same problem, from time to time,…

@retroflex
I will dig up another respberry pi and try it out. My test environment is a dietpi vm which runs on a pc so I wouldn’t expect the cpu load to be representative of the load on the pi.

I also dont think the issue is with ResRobot itself. But it is great that you are looking into it @Alvinger

[cyberdie]

no ResRobot running on my setup. Think the problem is electron itself.

[Alvinger]

I agree with others that the problem is most likely related to Electron and not module-specific but rather related to which module dependencies it has.

A solution, (not perfect) is to use MMM-WatchDog, it keeps an eye on your UI and quits app in case the UI crashes, combined with the PM2 process manager, MM2 will automaticly restart after a UI failure.

The problem still seems to persist also with the newest version of MM. Maybe someone has found a real solution?
I will try out MMM-WatchDog meanwhile.

@kuhlemann a cron job is the only way think it seems that it taxes the Pi too much after 8hours or so hence Cron Job every 8hours or so

@dazza120 what are you doing with cron to resolve the issue mate?
