MM crashing (after pi os update?)

wmx

Hi folks,
I’m running MM for a while now with 2.15.0 on a raspi 3B without problems. Since last weekend I discovered several reboots. On weekends the raspi is automatically updating via cron.
I did not change the config or something else.
Now the MM does not start any more. I always get these crashes:

pi@mirror:~ $ ./mm.sh

> magicmirror@2.15.0 start /home/pi/MagicMirror

I did reinstall of npm in MM dir but always end up here.
Does anybody see the problem?
How can I solve this?
Any help is welcome.

Second part:
What’s the problem with getting data from git?
There is no blocking firewall rule between.

@wmx how old is your sd card? and how big?

the sd card limited lifetime is because the technology used is write once… so when u write again, different unused bits have to be used, over and over… the filesystem however does not KNOW that some bits will not take another write… so things get weird… these DS card are great for low write environments, like cameras and music players, where its write once and read a lot of times…
but they fail in computer environments with logs and paging and all other write behavior…
I have had 10 fail in the last 3 years…

I now boot from sd, run from ssd (which has the SAME problem, but lots more bits available)

wmx

@sdetweil

The sd card is about one year old and half a year in use in the raspberry pi. It is a 16GB card.
So you think I need to replace it? I have to do a complete new install?

sdetweil

@wmx u might be able to copy your config file and the modules folder.

once the card is full, all the bits written, it is dead. no repair.

weird things starting to happen is an indicator.

weekly updates is a space consumer.

wmx

@sdetweil
I do NOT think the sd card is the reason here. I tried the following.
Took a completely new second 32GB card, on which I installed MM 2.13.0 in december 2020. This card did only run for some hours in december. Pi came up and MM runs manually started with

DISPLAY=:0 npm start

for about half an hour.
Then I decided to update MM (this was the fault here… :-( )
After Upgrading MM to 2.15.0 (and updating all modules) the same problem occurs with this card!

Sorry, but this is no accident.

Is there a way to go back to MM 2.13.0?

sdetweil

@wmx did u use my upgrade script?

see

https://github.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts

wmx

@sdetweil
No, this time i did it manually. I used it for upgrading my first card (from first post).

Can I use it now for a second time now?

sdetweil

@wmx u can try, use the force parm instead of apply

wmx

@sdetweil reran script with force, but still same issue

sdetweil

@wmx weird.

if u install 2.15 by itself does it run?
then copy your module over and config.js
