MagicMirror Autostart Error

qqqqqqqq

I’m trying to make MagicMirror Autostart at boot, by following the guide on github using pm2.
I worked once, but now I get this error.

Also, I tried starting it using npm start; the mirror worked fine, but this is the error.

MagicMirror will not quit, but it might be a good idea to check why this happened. Maybe no internet connection?

Inspite of this, the mirror showed me the latest news, but not the calendar.

Any help on this?

EADDRINUSE means there is another process running on port 8080

Please run netstat -lntu on your raspberry in terminal and check what processes are running on port 8080

@yawns said in MagicMirror Autostart Error:

EADDRINUSE means there is another process running on port 8080

Please run netstat -lntu on your raspberry in terminal and check what processes are running on port 8080

maybe the MMM-Remote Control ?
I’ll try the command when I get home.

Btw, what does this mean? Is there something wrong?

ERROR! Could not find main module js file.

I’m just guessing, but I imagine that since the bootup ran into an error (address/port in use) it could not load its files and as such could not continue proper boot.
