      @pat59 so, you already have an instance running, probably under pm2

      when I said stop MM I meant in whatever way running…

      pm2’s JOB is to start and KEEP MM running… no matter what
      you ctrl-Q
      pm2 says, oops, app crashed, restart…

      so, you have to use the pm2 commands to tell it what to do

      pm2 status

      will show the managed apps, one line per
      you can control the app, by using the name or number of the app in a row

      pm2 stop 0
pm2 stop MagicMirror

      could both be for the same app

      once stopped, THEN you can go to the MM folder and do the npm start to see the possible errors easier…

      once you fix the errors, you can stop the temp MM with ctrl-q (as you started it manually)
      and then tell pm2 to manage it again

      pm2 start 0/MagicMirror

                  Did you stop it manually ctrl-q
                  Yesterday after we finished testing?

                  pm2 status

                  Is anything listed as running?
                  If not then do this

                  ps -ef| grep MagicMirror

                  You should only get one line of output
