      when i try to start the magic mirror using pm2 start mm.sh, it says “Starting /home/pi/mm.sh in fork_mode (1 instance)”
      and then it says
      “Done”
      and then table that this looks like this shows up
      id │ name │ mode │ ↺ │ status │ cpu │ memory │
      ├────┼────────────────────┼──────────┼──────┼───────────┼──────────┼──────────┤
      │ 0 │ mm │ fork │ 0 │ online │ 0% │ 2.4mb

      then nothing happens. I have watched countless videos about the whole prossess and i do everything that they do, but after the enter pm2 start mm.sh the table shows up and then the magic mirror page shows up. i dont know what to do

        @CoopDog1712 ok, best thing is to use my script to set it up…
        see
        https://github.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts
        last script on the page

        but in the meantime

        pm2 stop all

        pm2 logs --lines=50

        to see what is going on

        does executing mm.sh work by itself?

        pm2 is really picky… if there is a batch (bash) script, then it MUST be named mm.sh just mm won’t work.

        then pm2 delete 0
        pm2 save -f
        then run my fixuppm2.sh script

          @sdetweil thank you so much for replying I really appreciate your help.

          On the table that shows up, I see that one of the names is just mm, how would I change it to mm.sh. Also when I run your script all it does is create a new Id on the table, called MagicMirror and it dosent seem to do anything

              @CoopDog1712 you can’t change and entry, but you can delete it

              pm2 delete 0 or pm2 delete mm

              pm2 logs --lines=50 might tell us what us going on

              pm2 is a command
              pm2 --help will show you all the things you can do

              ps, you can attach pics here… the third icon from the right above the editor here

                  after typing in pm2 logs --lines=50, all that is coming up is a repeating of these couple lines

                    @CoopDog1712 yes, sometimes, the install messes up

                    pm2 stop all
                    cd ~/MagicMirror
                    npm install electron@17.2.0
                    

                    to test

                    cd ~/MagicMirror
                    npm start
                    

                    if all looks good
                    ctrl-c to stop
                    then

                    pm2 start MagicMirror
                    

                    I should have asked, what pi is this on ? not pi 0 w, right?
