Problems with starting pm2 start mm.sh

[mumblebaj]

@Raksasas My mm.sh resides in my /pi/ folder and not in the MagicMirror folder so should work. It might be that there was an error while you were setting up pm2 or setting up the autostart perhaps?

@Raksasas it was the

pm2 start installers/mm.sh

That needed to be done from the MagicMirror folder.

Cause I ‘ASSUMED’ if u were working on mm, you would always be in that folder.

installers folder is in mm, not in user home

Part 1:
@sdetweil

Just tried the

pm2 start installers/mm.sh
pm2 save

From within the “MagicMirror” folder and no change. MagicMirror starts and at reboot it does not automaticly start

See below for my fix

Part 2:
@mumblebaj
This seems possible. So i re-ran

sudo npm install -g pm2
pm2 startup

After running “pm2 startup” this time I noticed the following:

To setup the Startup Script, copy/paste the following command:
sudo env PATH=$PATH:/usr/bin /usr/lib/node_modules/pm2/bin/pm2 startup systemd -u pi --hp /home/pi

So I ran that and followed with the “pm2 start mm.sh” and “pm2 save”. Well now it is auto starting on reboot.
