(Solved) PM2 does not start on reboot

@xbmcnut took me a good 10 seconds to find pm2-pi.service for the raspberry
And another 5 to change it.

YOU ARE A GENIUS!
thanks

@xbmcnut Hello

@rmohsen Do you know how to access your mirror with either PuTTy or WinSCP?

rmohsen

@xbmcnut yes. Tried winscp but couldn’t edit the file , no permission

I managed to change it from 8 to 15 with another command on terminal but still not working

@rmohsen Apologies. My install has died over the weekend and MM will no longer run. Getting to Desktop login screen on reboot and that’s it even though I told it to auto login, the desktop will not start. Have popped in ‘too hard bin’ for the moment, sorry.

Thats my pm2-root.service:

ExecReload=/usr/lib/node_modules/pm2/bin/pm2 reload all

@Sandy2503 I believe in the latest version of PM2, this was removed.

Sandy2503

today is install a fresh version of raspian pixel on my raspi 2 with the new version (2.1.1) of MagicMirror and the actual version of PM2 (2.4.5)

But the autostart function themes not to work and in the pm2-root.service is no part to set the idle time.

How can i fix the idle Problem ?
