After update 2.29.0 PM2 does not work

butchkemper

I am in the same boat with you. After update to 2.29.0, the ~/.pm2/logs/MagicMirror-error.log has this block of messages continually repeating:

[ERROR] TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'disableHardwareAcceleration')

I made a backup of the MagicMirror directory before updating to the new version. To return to the old version, I deleted the updated MagicMirror directory and restored the backup MM directory but the error persists with V2.28.0. Something outside of the MM directory must have been updated.

I tried restarting the system but the error continues.

@butchkemper can you do to show the nodejs version
node -v

butchkemper

pi@MagicMirror:~ $ node -v

VERSIONS: electron: undefined; used node: 20.9.0; installed node: 20.9.0; npm: 10.1.0; pm2: 5.4.2

for whatever reason MM doesn’t recognises your electron version

sdetweil

@MarcLandis yeh weird.

@htilburgs can you do
grep version node_modules/electron/package.json

grep version node_modules/electron/package.json

This is what I get:

pi@MagicMirror:~/MagicMirror $ sudo grep version node_modules/electron/package.json
  "version": "31.1.0"
pi@MagicMirror:~/MagicMirror $

sdetweil

@butchkemper which is the correct value

Sam, did you see where I mention the problem continues even after I deleted the 2.29.0 MM directory and restored the 2.28.0 directory?

Also, I am in the DFW area and available by phone if you would like.
