Hi,
I did what you asked:pm2 start MagicMirror [PM2] Applying action restartProcessId on app [MagicMirror](ids: [ 0 ]) [PM2] [MagicMirror](0) ✓ [PM2] Process successfully started ┌─────┬────────────────┬─────────────┬─────────┬─────────┬──────────┬────────┬──────┬───────────┬──────────┬──────────┬──────────┬──────────┐ │ id │ name │ namespace │ version │ mode │ pid │ uptime │ ↺ │ status │ cpu │ mem │ user │ watching │ ├─────┼────────────────┼─────────────┼─────────┼─────────┼──────────┼────────┼──────┼───────────┼──────────┼──────────┼──────────┼──────────┤ │ 0 │ MagicMirror │ default │ 2.26.0 │ fork │ 4369 │ 0s │ 0 │ online │ 0% │ 2.8mb │ pi │ disabled │ │ 1 │ mm │ default │ N/A │ fork │ 0 │ 0 │ 1 │ stopped │ 0% │ 0b │ pi │ disabled │I wonder why “watching” is disabled.

@kupperma and did that bring up MagicMirror?
if so, you can delete the mm definition
pm2 delete mm pm2 savewatching
the system maybe doesn’t that support… in my json file I request it -
I deleted mm
But no, MagicMirror does not appear.
pm2 status looks like that now:~/MagicMirror $ pm2 status ┌─────┬────────────────┬─────────────┬─────────┬─────────┬──────────┬────────┬──────┬───────────┬──────────┬──────────┬──────────┬──────────┐ │ id │ name │ namespace │ version │ mode │ pid │ uptime │ ↺ │ status │ cpu │ mem │ user │ watching │ ├─────┼────────────────┼─────────────┼─────────┼─────────┼──────────┼────────┼──────┼───────────┼──────────┼──────────┼──────────┼──────────┤ │ 0 │ MagicMirror │ default │ 2.26.0 │ fork │ 4369 │ 6m │ 0 │ online │ 0% │ 2.8mb │ pi │ disabled │ -
@kupperma where are you doing the pm2 start?
on the MM system screen in a terminal window
over ssh
over vnc
???lets try this, without pm2 involved
pm2 stop all cd ~/MagicMirror npm start -
Here is the output:

@kupperma cool… thats good… tell me about the physical system hookup
where is the physical display? -
Sorry forgot to answer:
I am on the raspberrypi over ssh.The Display is connected directly via the HDMI Port of the pi . All equipment is right at arm distance, because I’m setting it up first before staching it behind the actual mirror.
But I am on the pi via ssh so that later I can do updates and probably adding new modules .Manfred
-
@kupperma which kind of pi? if Pi 4/5 is the port on the left (closest to power) hdmi port?
-
This is an pi 3 Model B V1.2
the HDMI is about 2 Centimeters right to the MicroUSB Power input.I updated to raspianOS bookworm first.
Manfred -
@kupperma weird…
do you have keyboard to pi system desktop?
if so, ctrl-alt-t to open a terminal window and do
echo $DISPLAY
-
Yes I have_
Ok this does not work.
So it seems to be raspianOS failure. -
@kupperma I ONLY use SSH to install MM… never use the actual display.
have pi 0w, 02w, 3, 4,5 odroid, jetson nano, chromebox, chromebook,
and multiple virtual machines under vmwareNEVER seen npm run start say successful but not see it on screen…
also, on the screen if u can,
ctrl-c to stop the in ssh version
on screen
cd ~/Magicmirror
npm start -
@kupperma said in New installation but even default is displayed:
Ok this does not work.
what does not work?
-
The display does not react to ctrl-alt-t and there is no terminal visible.
-
@kupperma ok, on the menu bar there is a terminal window, click that
-
I know what you mean:
in an earlier installation I could move the mouse and the menubar got visible or I could press F11 and the menubar got visible. But now nothing works.
So should I reinstall raspian and start from the beginning or is there a work a round? -
@kupperma can u reboot? does anything change? again weird…
did you have MM running before? what would you lose starting over?
IF you start over,
new flash
boot, skip updates,
reboot turn on sshthen run my install script… it will update system, install node, then mm…
-
I start over!
Thanks for the checklist.
I wont loose much for my custom.css , config.js I have the code copied in a textfile. The modules I would have to reinstall but thats ok.Thank you for your time.
Manfred -
@kupperma run my backup/restore script… it saves all that and can be loaded up to github and versioned and restored from there
https://github.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror-backup-restore
it saves links to all the modules and restores from the links
-
Thank you again.
MM2 is up and running.
