      @sdetweil No, I re-flashed the SD card and could now reinstall the Magic Mirror software. Should I access my Pi and run this?

      bash -c “$(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts/master/raspberry.sh)”

      Or do I have to do something else beforehand so that the Magic Mirror software is installed correctly?

          @sdetweil That worked very well this time. Magic Mirror finally starts. Thank you very much for your script.
          I would now like to know whether I can install my modules normally like before, or whether there are still difficulties with calendar modules (I have often read this week that calendar modules cause problems)?

          I had these modules on it before and would install everything again, or should I leave some out because there are problems with the new MM update/version?

          Edit: After I rebooted, Magic Mirror doesn’t start automatically, then I entered this command:

          bash -c “$(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts/master/fixuppm2.sh)”

          It then starts immediately, but after restarting the Pi starts without MM.

            @sil3ntstorm yes the pm2 script has done trouble

            do this

            pm2 startup
            

            it will output a command, copy paste that

              Did I do it right? If so, it will appear as a message

                @sil3ntstorm need all of the command everything that it outputs, you didn’t copy about 30 characters

                then

                pm2 start ~/MagicMirror/installers/pm2_MagicMirror.json
                pm2 save

                  Wooooooooooooow it works, thank you very much

                  This worked after I typed this:

                  sudo env PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin /usr/local/lib/node_modules/pm2/bin/pm2 startup systemd -u pi --hp /home/pi

                  then that:

                  pm2 start ~/MagicMirror/installers/pm2_MagicMirror.json
                  pm2 save
