Need Help with magicmirror

WM1600

@sdetweil thank you,
I have re-installed Magic Mirror and chose to disable screen save and to start magicmirror on boot-up.
the install worked for magicmirror and and when I go to the magic mirror folder in terminal and type “npm run start”, magicmirror will start.

when I turn the terminal off and boot it up, It comes up with a magicmirror boot screen, but then the terminal continues to the normal start-up.
At this point, I can still go to terminal and type npm run start and run magicmirror

Am I missing a step to transition fully into magicmirror?

@WM1600 can you do this

pm2 flush
sudo reboot

then
pm2 logs --lines=50

WM1600

@sdetweil
ok,
I have done those.
no change

sdetweil

@WM1600 what is the output of the pm2 logs command? I need to see

WM1600

@sdetweil

the terminal looks like this

will@raspberrypi:~ $ pm2 logs --lines=50
will@raspberrypi:~ $

I do not see it doing anything.

[pm2.jpg](Input file contains unsupported image format)
I tried to upload the PM2.log but it says I can only upload picture files.

so I changed pm2.log to pm2.jpg. dont know it that will work.

@WM1600

ok, let’s do.

pm2 status to see what apps it is managing

WM1600

@sdetweil

when I type in pm2 status

I dont see anything

this is the terminal copied:

will@raspberrypi:~ $ pm2 status
will@raspberrypi:~ $

@WM1600 hmmm weird

run the fixuppm2 script from here
https://github.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts

WM1600

@sdetweil

I ran the following in terminal

will@raspberrypi:~ $ bash -c “$(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts/master/fixuppm2.sh)”
the log will be saved in /home/will/MagicMirror/installers/pm2_setup.log
/usr/local/bin/node: 1: Syntax error: “)” unexpected
/usr/local/bin/node: 1: Syntax error: “)” unexpected
will@raspberrypi:~ $

I have seen “Syntax error: “)” unexpected” before but that is the first time I have seen it twice

here is the log file:

it is saying the user is not pi, but this is on a rasberry pi

sdetweil

@WM1600 yes, your username is will, not pi

can you do

uname -a
file $(which bash)

I think you have a hybrid system
64 bit kernel
32 bit runtime

and you have the wrong (64 bit) node installed
