"Out of memory" issues - where do I begin?
-
@ember1205 what do you mean ‘updated’? if u just did a git pull, then u updated to the same level of electron
new release coming this week (1/1) which moves up to electron 8. 5.3
if u want to test it today, use the develop branch
both still use only electron, you can reinsert run-start.sh to use chromium
-
@sdetweil I used your upgrade script on my mirror. During the upgrade, it reverted the configuration back to using Electron instead of retaining the run-start.sh directive that would launch Chromium.
I wiped out the entire MM directory and copied back the working one that wasn’t upgraded. Unfortunately, it now seems that it is refusing to run the upgrade script and I’m wondering if it’s a certificate issue and I need to update the Pi itself first…
-
@ember1205 the upgrade doesn’t know about your local change to use run-start… but all u had to do was restore that one line in package.json
it now seems that it is refusing to run the upgrade script
show me the ~/MagicMirror/installers/upgrade.log
-
@sdetweil This is all that it spits out on a test run (and MM no longer shows that it is out of date but it is):
Upgrade started - Mon Dec 28 09:07:08 EST 2020 system is Linux raspberrypi 4.19.75-v7+ #1270 SMP Tue Sep 24 18:45:11 BST 2019 armv7l GNU/Linux the os is Distributor ID: Raspbian Description: Raspbian GNU/Linux 10 (buster) Release: 10 Codename: buster doing test run = true, NO updates will be applied! saving custom.css Unable to determine upstream git repository restoring custom.css removing git alias Upgrade ended - Mon Dec 28 09:07:09 EST 2020I tried connecting to a couple of web sites via CURL and it throws errors about loading certificates and these sites should work fine. So, the combo of everything is why I’m suspecting that there is a certificate issue due to an older OS on the Pi. I’m doing an upgrade on it now…
-
@ember1205 when u made your backup, how did u do it? you may not have backed up the git repo
from the MagicMirror folder
do a git status
and ls .git (notice the leading dot) -
@sdetweil I honestly don’t recall if I renamed the original folder MM-backup/ and then did rsync back to MagicMirror/ or just did rsync to MM-backup/. My rsync would have been with flags ‘-vaPHSx’, so either way it should have gotten everything.
I’ll check for the .git directory…
-
I can’t seem to get the system to tell me that it’s out of date again (even though I know it is). That’s ok for now, though… New problem…
Chromium is crashing, and I have a guess as to what might be going on. I have been searching and can not find anything related to a log file for Chromium, though, and I would need to be able to see that to understand if my suspicion is correct. Am I just completely missing it?
