Failed at the magicmirror@2.2.2 start script 'sh-run-start.sh'

Just discovered that I have two installs of MM one in /home and one at /home/carltonb. Have to figure out why it is installed twice. When I did the bash for the install command I may not have specified directories. I will try again in a few hours.

Well, what should i say…

I installed the MMM-Podcast a few days ago and had some trouble with it, since it didn’t download newer videos…
However, i tried a little bit to get it working (don’t know exactly what i did) and since there i thought it is running like it should.
But wrong… it was only working, cause my MMM-watchdog module restarts the mirror automatically 1-3 times a day (Heartbeat timeout).
Why am i telling this?
Cause i got the exactly same message as you … o.0

But different than you, my mirror is working at all except that it restarts some time.

First i did what is showing in the message… i updated node and npm Version.
node from 6.12.2 to 9.2.1
ppm from 3.10.10 to 5.5.1

I flushed pm2 logs and now i am waiting if the problem comes up again.

Sorry that i can’t help you at all, but i am also trying to figure out what that could be.

what OS are you running? Jesse or stretch? lite or desktop version?

Running 2017-07-05-raspbian-jessie. Desktop image.
Going to start again and see where I screwed up.

Latest saga, though I am getting frustrated I am learning a lot about the process. I have looked at all the errors that are being given but do not know where to start.
If I do a pm2 start mm.sh system gives me a report but nothing happens on my screen.

I had this problem to but i fixed it with npm install electron in the MagicMirror directory.

I had this problem the last two days – out of the blue, the MM2 was running for over a year with no problem. I know the thread is old, but it pops up when searching here or on google for this error, so I wanted to add how I was able to solve it:

I backed up the config, my modules and my custom css.
Then I deleted the MagicMirror-Folder, keeping pm2 and everything unchanged. I cloned MM2, ran “npm install”, brought back the config, modules and custom css and ran “pm2 start mm”.

Seems so easy now, but for two days I tried everything – except deleting the folder.
