Installation issues - pm2

[joebowers]

@sdetweil I tried to follow the tutorial step by step. I’m not sure if that has be installing as root.
This is what I see when I look at the log.

This was the most I could screen shot, this log was very long.

[sdetweil]

@joebowers /home/joe/MagicMirror/mm.sh no such file

is that where the file is?

does it have permission to execute?

ls -laF mm.sh

so,

chmod +x mm.sh

[joebowers]

@sdetweil I was fooling around before coming to this forum for help. I believe I copied the mm.sh file into that folder, then later removed it. I put it back and saw this in the log:

Then I realized I have a space after DISPLAY =, and there is no space between the two in the tutorials.
So I fix that and tried running again, I see this:

But no mirror software on the screen…

[sdetweil]

@joebowers ok

pm2 stop all
pm2 flush

then execute mm.sh

cd ~
MagicMirror/mm.sh

[joebowers]

@sdetweil Okay I did all that and the Magic Mirror software starts.
Should I try:

pm2 start mm.sh
pm2 save

As stated in the tutorial?

[sdetweil]

@joebowers we should clean up the other entries

I think it

pm2 delete row_number

(you could use name if the names were unique)

pm2 --help 

will tell you the command syntax

pm2 start mm.sh 

if you are in the folder w the mm.sh

[joebowers]

@sdetweil Okay I deleted all the rows, there were 4 of them.
Then I run

pm2 start mm.sh

No mirror software but I see this

[joebowers]

@sdetweil In case it helps, I’m seeing this in the pm2 logs

[sdetweil]

@joebowers why are you running at root?

[joebowers]

@sdetweil I have no idea. This is where I end up when following this tutorial step by step.
https://www.raspberrypi.com/tutorials/how-to-build-a-super-slim-smart-mirror/
Sometimes I I get this message:
So I type in what is suggested to continue, I assume that makes me root??

I assume the tutorial, if followed exactly, should work.
Either it’s not fool proof, or I missing an important step.

Everything I’ve done is on a new raspberry pi.
