      @beth black screen is another problem… (but pm2 launched MM on boot, so pm2 is ok)

      typically it means a library needed by one of the MM modules you are using is missing
      (we removed some dead libraries, in 2.16 and 2.17, but many modules didn’t document needing them, so oops…)

      SO, you need to look at the logs

      minimize MM, alt-spacebar, n

      then open a terminal window

      ctrl-alt-t

      then type

      pm2 logs – lines=100

      and look for module not found

      we know about

      request
      rrule-alt
      valid-url

        i can’t “minimize” mm2 it is just a black screen with a terminal window it just shows the mm2 logo and to the left a terminal window (it is rlly weird and looks the same as the backround all black)on the bottom left (below the terminal window) it says dphys-swapfile.service

              @beth I think that is hung before mm gets running. the bottom message is a boot time message
