Autostarts but doesn't run, will run on restart

sdetweil

@ember1205 whatever script…

if you used my setup script it uses the one already in installers

ember1205

Ok… Modified the ~/mm.sh script

pm2 restart mm failed to start Chromium correctly - landed on the Chrome Desktop.
Purged the config directory and started mm without issue.

Restarted the mirror and everything came up clean multiple times, but there is clearly still something weird happening with Chromium in that I have to continue wiping the config directory before it will start up correctly.

@ember1205 the new script wipes the config folder already

@sdetweil

Whatever it’s doing, it isn’t doing it correctly. “pm2 restart mm” lands me on the Chrome Desktop every time. I have to wipe the config folder by hand.

@sdetweil

Its trying to wipe a non-existent directory

0|mm  | + rm -rf /home/pi/.config/chromium-browser

sdetweil

@ember1205 ah. I ‘assumed’ folder name matched executable…doah…

ember1205

@sdetweil said in Autostarts but doesn't run, will run on restart:

cd ~
rm -rf .config/chromium
rm -rf .config/electron

This was what you had mentioned earlier in the thread and worked, and it’s what I built my config wipe based on.

@ember1205 do the curl again

ember1205

@sdetweil

Seems to be working reliably. Even why I simply do a “shutdown now” without any of my shutdown process items, it starts up correctly.

@ember1205 cool… thanks for the feedback…
i merged the changes into the master branch for all updates from now on

ember1205

@sdetweil

Now I have to find something else to break… sigh… :)

sdetweil

@ember1205 thanks!.. this exposed another problem , using the script on an ubuntu system it opened the MM page in the running chrome instance and THEN DIDN’T WAIT… so the script ‘failed’ and pm2 restarted it , over and over and over…

So, i just fixed THAT too… (didn’t break the prior! lol)

@sdetweil

As long as you got it all fixed, then it was a good day!
