@sdetweil Oh, nice. That’s a good tip. Thanks!

@sdetweil said in Fork Mode:

That doesn’t seem to work:

It is still returning all the reporting to Terminal.

@davidgagne yes, as the starting shell is still open, output is spooled there,
BUT you can exit the window AND it will stay running… the output will be lost…
(thats the value of pm2 spawning… it captures the output)

if you get it running in the background, without pm2, then two ways to kill it

reboot
or run a kill script like this

ps -ef | grep MagicMirror  | awk '{print $2}'| xargs sudo kill -9

for info , the steps
list the processes and their program path
find the ones with MagicMirror
print out just the process number
sudo kill -9 the process number

[davidgagne]

@sdetweil Oh. So just close that Terminal window and ssh into it again, you mean?

[sdetweil]

@davidgagne yes
