      I don’t have nvm installed. The command ‘which nvm’ command returned nothing.

      If I clear the pm2 logs and immediately look at them, I’m seeing something odd. It appears I have 2 processed controlled by pm2. Here’s the output:

      pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $ pm2 logs --lines=100
      [TAILING] Tailing last 100 lines for [all] processes (change the value with --lines option)
      /home/pi/.pm2/pm2.log last 100 lines:
      /home/pi/.pm2/logs/MagicMirror-out.log last 100 lines:
      /home/pi/.pm2/logs/MagicMirror-error.log last 100 lines:
      /home/pi/.pm2/logs/mm-out.log last 100 lines:
      /home/pi/.pm2/logs/mm-error.log last 100 lines:

      I think the MagicMirror references are to my initial installation from a year or two ago. The references to ‘mm’ are what I attempted to do this morning.

        @bugsounet said in Trying to update node.js fails:

        sudo apt-get --allow-releaseinfo-change update

        That made a big difference! The script that updates node.js now runs properly! Thanks.

        I’ll keep playing and see if I can get this thing running again.

          Thanks for your help. This has me running again. I need to work on the weather module some more. I have the current weather working, but the forecast is hung on ‘loading’. Thanks again for the super quick responses!

                Thanks. I was able to remove the entry I created this morning, to there’s only one. I’m still having issues with pm2. If I start MM using pm2 after a couple of minutes it restarts. The pm2 log shows:

                PM2 | pm2 has been killed by signal, dumping process list before exit…
                PM2 | Deleting process 0
                PM2 | Stopping app:MagicMirror id:0
                PM2 | App [MagicMirror:0] exited with code [0] via signal [SIGTERM]
                0|MagicMirror | /home/pi/MagicMirror/node_modules/electron/dist/electron exited with signal SIGTERM
                PM2 | pid=1386 msg=process killed
                PM2 | Exited peacefully
                0|MagicM

                For some reason this keeps cycling. At the moment I’ve started MM using the run-start.sh script and it appears to be stable.

                    I don’t have any cron jobs running. A crontab -l says there’s nothing for user pi.

                      @thad ok, lets see if we can start over on pm2

                      do

                      pm2 unstartup
                      

                      it will give u a command to issue to remove the pm2 hooks
                      then do

                      sudo npm uninstall pm2 
                      

                      then run my fixuppm2.sh script again … it will redo all the setup

                        Looks promising! MagicMirror has been running with the same pid for 5 minutes now!
