      what is your setup (e.g. pi version, os version (buster), docker)?

      which modules are running?

        OS is Buster
        Raspberry Pi 3 Model B Rev 1.2
        MagicMirror Version 2.18.0
        Running as a client with PM2 on startup.
        Connecting to your MagicMirror Docker on a Synology as a server.

          so here the client is crashing.

          But may because the server crashed, can you take a look at docker ps on the synology if in the status columm is something like restarted. And may examine the logs with docker logs mm if you find the starting sequence Starting MagicMirror: v2.18.0 more than once?

          The docker setup has restart: unless-stopped (if not changed by the user) so the container will restart automatically after a crash.

            docker ps
            

            the status says “Up 3 days”. This is due to Watchtower I think as the container got updated.
            When this happens and the screen gets black, I do restart the client which continues to produce black screens.

            Here is the output of

            docker logs magicmirror
            

            I can only find one starting sequence.

              then it’s no server problem, no idea why the client crashes. Is this new with mm version v2.18.0 (because it contains new electron version)?

                    @karsten13 unless he is running mm client on the other machine, vs running chrome to the server

                      I am running the client on a Raspberry Pi. There I do get the electron errors and the screen goes black.
                      I think it might be in correlation with 2.18.0 of mm or with updating the containers with watchtower?!
