Brand New Install works until I enable PM2 Autostart

cowlam

pm2 start mm.sh
Magic Mirror launches successfully

pm2 save
pm2 restart 0 (can confirm that is the correct id from pm2 status - only one entry which is mm)
Magic Mirror is closed down… and an black Electron window opens and does not change ever after several minutes.
If I right-click the Electron window and close it, after a few seconds the Magic Mirror launches successfully again on its own.

@cowlam weird…

@sdetweil
After my last post I ran pm2 restart 0 and it restarted MM correctly.
But after I rebooted it was back to launching the black Electron screen.

mm.sh looks like this:

cd ./MagicMirror
DISPLAY=:0 npm start

@cowlam can u change the cd line to

cd ~/MagicMirror

the one u have is MagicMirror from here (.)
not MagicMirror from user home (~)

also the pm2 status line has a column with a circled arrow header, that is restarts
and after 5 rapid it stops

I suspect the cd doesn’t work, mm doesn’t start,
but the saved info says u need electron started.

@sdetweil Sam: Just to let you know, if PM2 is not running any tasks, it won’t save with a plain pm2 save - you have to use pm2 save --force to clear the list after deleting everything.
