      Can’t start MagicMirror

      I tried to install autostart using PM2 information in the documentation. I was starting MM manually with pm2 start MagicMirror.
      Now I can’t start MagicMirror no matter how I try to do it… I try using my old pm2 start MagicMirror and it doesn’t start then I use the new pm2 start mm.sh and it won’t start. I make sure that I stop all the processes are stopped before I try it but it doesn’t do any good.
      Any suggestions?
      Dennis

        @n6ng use my script, fixuppm2.sh

        do
        pm2 stop all
        pm2 delete 0

        then run my script
        see https://github.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts

        mm.sh is in the installers folder

          followed your instructions but when I get to the fixuppm2.sh it says command not found
          And yes, I used your script to install it to start with.

              @n6ng ok, another thing is it’s got an error.

              pm2 stop all

              pm2 logs --lines=50

              cd MagicMirror

              npm start

              see the error
              ctrl-c to exit mm

                Ok Sam… thanks
                I resolved the problem by renaming the MagicMirror to oMagicMirror
                I then ran the install script again and moved my modules and config directories over from the oMagicMirror to my new one and its working again… If I run into the problem again, I’ll cp the log information to solve it… Right now it’s running ok again…
                Thanks
                Dennis

                BTW… what does the Reputation -1 listing on my homepage mean… it doesn’t sound good… What caused that and how do I fix it?
                Thanks again…

                    Ok… thanks a lot… Believe it or not, I’m actually learning a lot by being in this group… Not bad for a 76 year old guy… Wish I had started this when I was 50 instead of 74… I’d be very smart now… Well thanks for everything. I’ll now find out how to mark this solved and put that under my belt…
