Magic Mirror continuously resets when I view from browser

[sdetweil]

@Dexter1088 like to see the output at npm start on the crash

sounds like you are using pm2 as it restarts after crash

pm2 logs --lines=xxx
xxx is number of most recent lines, default 15

[sdetweil]

@Dexter1088 i deleted your post, as it exposed the calendar urls

please check and repost

maybe better

pm2 stop all
cd ~/MagicMirror
npm start &>somefile.txt

then ctrl-q to stop MagicMirror

edit the somefile. txt

[Dexter1088]

@sdetweil
No worries I had the calendar URL changed in the last one
this one they are Calendar 1,2,3,4.

pm2 shows no instances running

[sdetweil]

@Dexter1088 do you have the fix on?

https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/19282/version-2-30-0-calendar-fix-for-clipping-broadcast-events

i dont see server restart

[Dexter1088]

@sdetweil
I do, after some troubleshooting I think the error is with how I have the Calendar ext3 config setup.
Soon as I take this code out, everything works fine from browser and no resets.
I will look it over make sure I’m not doing something wrong.

/*/ CALENDAR EXT3
	
        {
            module: "MMM-CalendarExt3",
            pages: {
               
                calendar: "middle_center"
            },
            config: {
                mode: "month",
                instanceId: "Main_Calendar",
                locale: "en-US",
		maxEventLines: 5,
                firstDayOfWeek: 1,
                monthIndex: 0,
                calendarSet: 
		[
                    'Calendar 1',
                    'Calendar 2',
		    'Calendar 3',
		    'Calendar 4'
                ],
		
                fontSize: "18x",
		eventHeight: "22px",
                useSymbol: true,
                displayLegend: true,
                cellDateOptions: {
                    month: "short",
                    day: "numeric"
                },
                headerWeekDayOptions: {
                    weekday: "long"
                },
                eventTimeOptions: {
                    timeStyle: "short"
                },
                animationSpeed: 1000,
                skipPassedEventToday: false,
                showMore: true,
                useMarquee: false,

 refreshInterval: 1000000 ,
    scanInterval: 100000,                      
    broadcastPastEvents: true
            }, 

[sdetweil]

@Dexter1088 broadcastPastEvents is a default cal parm

what is the pages:{} thing

not in ext3

[Dexter1088]

@sdetweil

https://github.com/edward-shen/MMM-pages

[Dexter1088]

@sdetweil

That’s the problem though, soon as I take out the pages, the web view works fine. something fishy with it. Weird it works on the Raspberry Pi directly just fine.

[sdetweil]

@Dexter1088 ok. thats not the correct config

if you use the classes approach
classes: at each module

otherwise the module names are in the page definitions

[Dexter1088]

I’m an idiot, sorry its not MMM-Pages its MMM-Page selector…

https://github.com/Veldrovive/MMM-Page-Selector

I’m working with it now to see if I have it in the wrong spot, but it’s defiantly what is causing the constant reboots/refresh’s. Thanks!

[Dexter1088]

Does anyone know or have an alternative module to MMM-Page-Selector?
The problem is defiantly with that module, and I can’t seem to find a good work around. Soon as I view it from the browser it goes nuts and refresh’s over and over.

I’m just looking for something that will allow me to set different pages I can view like “Home, Calendar, tasks”

Thanks!

[sdetweil]

@Dexter1088 i’m leaving off the mmm

pages, carousel, modulesrotation

see the third party list linked in the top menu here

pages lets you use arbitrary names for the pages

[Dexter1088]

@sdetweil
Thankyou, went with MMM-Pages and no more refresh issues, thanks!

[sdetweil]

@Dexter1088 awesome
