        I solved the same issue by using the command:
        sudo pm2 startup systemd -u pi --hp /home/pi

        And then using pm2 save to save the state.

                @shbatm said in PM2 MM2 Not starting on start up:

                sudo pm2 startup systemd -u pi --hp /home/pi

                Can also confirm this worked for me, too.

                Thank you @shbatm

                  @shbatm I’ve tried the following steps but it still doesn’t work, can you help me?

                  • sudo pm2 startup systemd -u pi --hp /home/pi
                  • nano mm.sh
                  • cd ~/MagicMirror
                    DISPLAY=:0 npm start
                  • CTRL-O
                  • Enter
                  • CTRL-X
                  • chmod +x mm.sh
                  • pm2 start mm.sh
                  • pm2 save
                  • sudo reboot

                  Thanks in advance.

                    @pum there is an existing script provided by MagicMirror now, please try deleting everything on your ~/.pm2 directory, then using:

                    sudo su -c "env PATH=$PATH:/usr/bin pm2 startup linux -u pi --hp /home/pi"
                        pm2 start ~/MagicMirror/installers/pm2_MagicMirror.json
                        pm2 save
                    

                    You may have to use systemd instead of linux in the first line if you get an error.
