[Remote-Control] Shutdown, Configure and Update your MagicMirror

@pepemujica should be yes. When you enter from a device which gets blocked through the ipwhitelist you get a message in the logs

@strawberry-3.141 Still can’t find the way, the whitelist is empty, I can access from the browser where it is installed the MM, but outside that I can’t, even being at the same wifi network :(

PM2 restart won’t work.
Could you have a look, please.
Thanks a lot

@kurt looks like there is currently no instance running that can be restarted so just start a new one by doing pm2 start mm

@kurt [PM2][ERROR] script not found

did you follow these steps to create the script? https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/wiki/Auto-Starting-MagicMirror

kurt

@strawberry-3.141
yes I did it following the steps in that wiki

Shouldn’t pm2 start mm be executed in ~ and not in ~/MagicMirror ? The tutorial said to create mm.sh in ~

So please go back one folder with cd .. or directly with cd ~ and try again

kurt

@yawns
this is what I get,
do you think it is a good idea to start the install routine once again from the beginning? pi@raspberrypi:~ $
in my modules folder there is no PM2 folder. Should there be one?
Thanks a lot for help

If you want to start the process with npm start then you have to do that inside ~/MagicMirror
However if you want to use pm2 then I would advise following the instructions again: https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/wiki/Auto-Starting-MagicMirror

pm2 seems to be working fine on your raspberry, so I would start here:

Make a MagicMirror start script. To use PM2 in combination with MagicMirror, we need to make a simple shell script. Preferable, we put this script outside the MagicMirror folder to make sure it won’t give us any issues if we want to upgrade the mirror.

cd ~
nano mm.sh

Add the following lines:

cd ~/MagicMirror
DISPLAY=:0 npm start

Save and close, using the commands CTRL-O and CTRL-X. Now make sure the shell script is executable bij performing the following command:

chmod +x mm.sh

You are now ready to the MagicMirror using this script using PM2.
