      Hello everybody

      I have the following problem. My two MagicMirrors (RPi2 & RPi3) work smoothly throughout the day. However, the MagicMirror V 2.6.0 hangs up overnight. The Pi is still running every morning and with pm2 restart MagicMirror can i restart the MagicMirror. Memory and CPU are not overloaded. Somebody can help me with this problem?
      The following modules are installed:

      MMM-bernwordclock
      MMM-Carousel
      MMM-Cursor
      MMM-GoogleMapsTraffic
      MMM-page-indicator
      MMM-pages
      MMM-Remote-Control
      MMM-SimpleLogo
      MMM-SwissCommute
      MMM-SwissStationboard
      MMM-SystemStats
      MMM-WatchDog

        Edit:

        I found a solution for me. I have generated a daily task with crontab (https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/linux/usage/cron.md), which restarts the MagicMirror with pm2 restart MagicMirror.sh every morning at 5 o’clock.

        open crontab with crontab -e add 0 5 * * * pm2 restart MagicMirror.sh to the end off the file.

          I had the same Problem. I disabled all Modules and Test which one make the problems. It was the Google Maps Traffic Module.

            @pakmann Thank you for testing and sharing your results. I already had the suspicion that it was the MMM-GoogleMapsTraffic module as it was used by a lot of users that faced the very same problem.

              Hi I’ve had/have the same problem with MMM-GoogleMapTraffic module I think it uses too much ram, I’ve got a cron to run every 12hrs to get round it

                  @skorpionbird after about 12hours memory says it’s only got 2/3 percent left so I suspect it to be a memory leak issue with module as when MM first starts it says I have 32-38 percent ram free
