MMM-BackgroundSlideshow

CyruS1337

Sorry, it’s me again.

One of my PI’s actually ran for months without any problems. I updated the module MMM-BackgroundSlideshow 3 days ago. Since this update, my mirror is about 10min always dunek. When I enter pm2 start mm in the console, the picture comes back. I have also run the dependency in module folder npm install, without success.

What could be the reason for this?

@CyruS1337 show us pm2 logs

that would be the log files

make the swap space bigger

CyruS1337

@sdetweil Ok, I did. I’ll watch that. Can you explain in one sentence what I just did here or where the mistake was?

sdetweil

@CyruS1337 by default, the raspberry pi OS uses physical memory… if it runs out, it will try to swap out things not being used to make room for current work. but… the swap space is very small, only 100 meg…
so the swap out fails, and the current process is killed

CyruS1337

Ok, thanks for the explanation :) I can understand that reasonably. You are a genius

sdetweil

@CyruS1337 no… it happened to me!

CyruS1337

Now I thought it was solved, but after about 1 hour the screen was black again. I had to stop the MagicMirror with pm2 stop 0 and then restart it with pm2 start 0.

I also changed the size from 100 to 1024.

What else can it be?

sudo dphys-swapfile swapoff
sudo nano /etc/dphys-swapfile / (changed size 1024)
sudo dphys-swapfile swapon

sdetweil

@CyruS1337 and rebooted after changing swap file
