      I think I spoke too soon. I removed the DarkSky, Remote Control and Home Assistant Sensors modules and it still crashes on start up. The system load is high but after a while it decreases. I think I will try to a fresh install and see what happens.

        I did a fresh install and installed the modules one at a time. I commented out the modules I already added in my config file. I did notice there is a thread going on regarding MMM-Remote-Control module not working with latest update. So I removed it because I don’t use it that much anyways.

        Then I un-commented all the modules in my config file and it crashed again. I think it has to do with Electron. But I am not a professional and I am only doing this for fun. The CPU load is huge when it starts up. I don’t think this will work on RPI 3 anymore.

        I reverted back to 2.10.1 and everything seems to work fine.

          @joberbroeckling i have it running on pi 0, pi 3, pi 4, odroid, nano, ubuntu, and Mac catalina

          no issues…

          I don’t use remote-control or pir, or buttons

          there is a fix for the remote-control in that topic (u have to change the code)

          so, fresh install, no additions/changes, does it run ok?

            If I do a fresh install and add the same modules (except remote-control) I had before it crashes. So I am not sure how to test which module is causing the issue.

              @joberbroeckling disabled all the modules u added,

              add

              disabled:true. 
              

              to each module section

              module:?????,
              disabled:true,
              

              pm2 stop 0
              one at a time, change true to false, restart mirror

              npm start dev

              if it works, ctrl-c to kill mirror, edit config, enable next
              and repeat

              if it fails, see the terminal window and developers window, console tab for errors
              ctrl c on terminal window to exit

                I think I figured out what the issue is. It has to do with the MMM-WatchDog and the interval was too low. It was previously set to 10s. I upped it to 30s and it hasn’t restarted since.
