      @Ety60 use the install script command from here

      https://github.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts

      if this is a pi0, electron is no longer available, but I set the system up in split mode the run chromium instead

        I did it and it was successful. But what do I do now to restart the MagicMirror software? It still doesn’t work with this:

        cd MagicMirror
        
        npm run start
        

        I’m using an rpi 4 for this project.

          @Ety60 when u did the install, did u say yes to pm2?

          if so, then pm2 start 0 should work, also npm start should work

          if you did use pm2, then it will start at boot, so npm start would try to start a second copy.

          pm2 status will show u what is running

            The program did not ask me to install pm2.

                yes ~·install.log exist. So I think I used your script.

                  @Ety60 and it should have prompted you, “Do you want to use pm2 to autostart your MagicMirror”

                  if u said n, and want to fix it, you can use the fixuppm2.sh script

                    @sdetweil I tried to run the entire script again and this time asked me for pm2. It worked and MagicMirror now works. Thank you very much for your help!
