MMM-GooglePhotos suddenly stopped working this morning
-
@Jabl0 did you add
debug:true,to the module config, and add MMM-Logext
you should see logging where npm start is done
-
@sdetweil yes I did. That’s where have been checking the past few days and all the images load just fine, even when it goes black which why im baffled. Is there anything else I should be looking for in the logs?
I use pm2 logs to see the logs btw.
I also check in dmesg
-
@Jabl0 ok, good. ill relook thru the code, i had a similar problem with a similar module on another mirror platform, was an out of memory problem.
wont be able to get to that til this afternoon.
-
@sdetweil I appreciate it. It’s late my side anyway. I will check back in tomorrow.
-
@sdetweil just to give you an update. I increased my swap space from 512 to 2048.
Still same issue.
I am using a different module all together, MMM-BackgroundSlideshow.
Still same issue.
I am running my pi caseless now to stay in the normal temp range.
Still same issue.
I’m yet to monitor my RAM and CPU usage when it crashes, but I’m suspecting my Pi is not powerful enough to run these modules.
So I do not think there are any bugs in your code causing the black screen.
I will keep digging to see what is causing this. It was working fine when I was using the Google Photos module.

@Jabl0 thanks for the info,
there were two issues in older code
- loaded too many images into browser, slow creep. this is working storage size. i think this is fixed, but the failure seems indicative
- a bad image, which caused a hang but not black screen
i will add the memory space debugging to this module, will let you know for update
-
@Jabl0 well, making the debugger part work is a lot harder in this env…
but I can take memory snapshots thru the dev window UI and don’t see any dangling images…
I have it on 5 second cycle going thru 600 images… -
@sdetweil yeah i dont think its your code. I think its something else as its doing the same with the MMM-BackgroundSlideshow module.
I’ll check my RAM and CPU usage.

@Jabl0 weird
