MMM-GooglePhotos - Reaching quota but don't know why

@sdetweil That was my thought as well.
I initially tried re-installing MagicMirror using the official manual steps, configured PM2 and I couldn’t get it to work. I then used your script and that worked wonders :) Thank you for that.

I don’t have anything in crontab
Where else can I check to see if there’s another instance running?

sdetweil

@bhaules I meant from another machine, windows PC looking at the mm web page

bhaules

@sdetweil Not as far as I’m aware.
My current setup is a rpi connected to a tv and that’s it.
Is there a way to check to see if there are other external connections?

sdetweil

@bhaules not that I am aware of

what is the address: setting in config.js?

if ,“localhost” then only apps inside the same machine can connect

bhaules

@sdetweil I really appreciate you giving your time to help me:

I have whitelisted in the past my local network ips to be able to connect to the MM instance (for troubleshooting). Not using it any more in any other browsers.

 10 let config = {
  11     address: "localhost",   // Address to listen on, can be:
  12                             // - "localhost", "127.0.0.1", "::1" to listen on loopback interface
  13                             // - another specific IPv4/6 to listen on a specific interface
  14                             // - "0.0.0.0", "::" to listen on any interface
  15                             // Default, when address config is left out or empty, is "localhost"
  16     port: 8080,
  17     basePath: "/",  // The URL path where MagicMirror is hosted. If you are using a Reverse proxy
  18                     // you must set the sub path here. basePath must end with a /

  22                                                             // ["127.0.0.1", "::ffff:127.0.0.1", "::1", "::ffff:192.168.1.5"],

  24                                                             // ["127.0.0.1", "::ffff:127.0.0.1", "::1", "::ffff:192.168.3.0/28"],
  25

  27     httpsPrivateKey: "",    // HTTPS private key path, only require when useHttps is true
  28     httpsCertificate: "",   // HTTPS Certificate path, only require when useHttps is true
  29
  30     language: "en",
  31     locale: "en-US",
  32     logLevel: ["INFO", "LOG", "WARN", "ERROR"], // Add "DEBUG" for even more logging
  33     timeFormat: 24,
  34     units: "metric",
  35     // serverOnly:  true/false/"local" ,
  36     // local for armv6l processors, default
  37     //   starts serveronly and then starts chrome browser
  38     // false, default for all NON-armv6l devices
  39     // true, force serveronly mode, because you want to.. no UI on this device

What I find curious is that it almost looks like there are 2 streams of indexing running in the same time:

other than looking at the PM2 not sure where else to look at to see if there is another instance running.

Although I haven’t changed the configuration, I have recently re-installed everything so I’m thinking it’s related to the re-install rather than the config:

MMRIZE

@bhaules

Just memo;
It seems Indexing 50 photos took around 3~4 seconds. (It is too slower than I expect) 5000 photos will take 3000~4000 sec, = around 50 ~ 60minutes.
But your scanInterval is 10 minutes. It might be the reason? Before finishing the previous scanning cycle, a new cycle might begin.

As I mentioned earlier on github, scanning 5thousands photos every 10 minutes to show random 5 pictures in that 10 minutes, seems not so much efficient.
