Magic Mirror Blanks Several Hours

hrjmsh

@striiker I am having the exact same problem. Screen goes black every 6-8 hours with just the pointer showing. I have to reload/restart the Magic Mirror then. This started to happen after upgrade to version 2.4.0
I have upgraded to 2.5.0 but the issue remains the same.
I am still trying to figure out the solution; just wanted to share with you that you are not the only one facing this problem!

Same here as well. Would love to hear if anyone got this one sorted.

Has anyone found anything interesting in the logs? pm2 status MagicMirror?

@striiker said in Magic Mirror Blanks Several Hours:

When I experience this condition, I see no slowness while connected to ssh.

That makes me think it’s an electron problem. If you have no slowness during an SSH session, I would try the pm2 command above and see if something is kicking out error messages. Likewise, try the top command and see what your processor utilization level is, plus see if something is taking up an inordinate amount of resources.

Not a solution to the root problem, but you can add the WatchDog module to automatically quit MM when UI freezes:

Hi everyone,

I have experienced this problem for several months now and tried every hint I got from the forum. Nothing helped. After setting up the Raspberry from scratch with the new Version 2.6.0 the problem still exists. I checked the logs and got this from kernel.log:

It looks to me like a bug in MagicMirror. Should I make a bug report with the log?

After disabling every single module I found the one which makes trouble: MMM-GoogleMapsTraffic. When it is disabled MagicMirror runs for weeks without problems. I will start a new thread with the errors of the module.

I had a blank screen for the first time when I got home today. System had been running for a couple of weeks without an issue.

I’ve now added a cron job to restart every sunday…
