Trouble with modules
-
Hello,
I am new to programming and having trouble installing new modules. I have only been able to get the doomsday countdown timer to work successfully. I am currently having trouble with NJ Transit Bus module. I have installed the module, changed directory to the module folder and installed the dependencies by following the readme file. The module seems to load into MM but never actually loads any data or seems to connect to any service. This module does not require an API. I have failed to get the MMM-NycTransit module or MMM-Traffic module to work correctly so I figured my problem was API related? I get the same result from both these modules as well, the module seems to work but doesn’t get any information. I figured this module without an API was a good place to start troubleshooting.
I’ve checked for syntax errors. Here is my NJTransitBus config:

@nipper2000h the second means u already have mm running. did u select pm2 during the scripted install?
dopm2 status pm2 stop 0then restart mm again

@sdetweil Yes, this worked. Thank you so much, it fixed my issue on all the modules I was having problems with. I didn’t realize anything was wrong because weather was working twice. MM was running from pm2 already when I used npm start. Restarts didn’t fix my issue but this worked for me. Thanks again!
