Magic mirror is not showing up

sdetweil

@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

@sdetweil

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

sdetweil

@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?

CoopDog1712

@sdetweil no its a pi 4

@sdetweil so it works now, and after i enter pm2 start MagicMirror, it loads the software for the magic mirror, the only issue is that their is nothing only a blank screen, no time, weather, nothing. all that comes up is a blank screen. any suggestions?
