@jefftse said in Electron quit periodically:

0|mm | ### SYSTEM: manufacturer: ; model: ; virtual: false
0|mm | ### OS: platform: linux; distro: Debian GNU/Linux; release: 12; arch: arm64; kernel: 6.6.62+rpt-rpi-v8

0|mm | ### OTHER: timeZone: America/New_York; ELECTRON_ENABLE_GPU: undefined

that is what I needed

@jefftse ok, this is related to the Wayland compositor

can you switch back to X11

use the raspi-config app

sudo raspi-config

advanced

Wayland

X11

you will have to reboot after that

[jefftse]

@sdetweil ok, i just did it and will report back. I guess i lost VNC from switching.

@sdetweil it did just crash with this

0|mm | /home/jeff/MagicMirror/node_modules/electron/dist/electron exited with signal SIGSEGV
PM2 | App [mm:0] exited with code [1] via signal [SIGINT]
PM2 | App [mm:0] starting in -fork mode-

@jefftse different vnc setup on x11

i use ssh to avoid all this graphical crud.

what was before that line?

[jefftse]

@jefftse ok, the issues I found referencing that problem all resulted in app code failure (using parms wrong, not freeing memory, a faulty image format, …) not electron problems…

I don’t see an module doing graphics in your setup… but I don’t know what they all do exactly…

[jefftse]

@sdetweil my setup is pretty simple and its freshly built yesterday. here is my config…

[sdetweil]

@jefftse please use code marker around logs and config

paste the text into the forum editor, blank line above and below
select the text you pasted
push the </> button

as I said, I don’t SEE anything causing this…

but…

only way is to disable one module at a time to see if we can find it

add

disabled:true,

after the module: line
