        Thanks I’ll try in the morning. If I can somehow get to config.js I’ll undo what I did. Appreciate all of your help!

          @motdog always make sure u have an alternative way into the system. Like ssh from your PC.

            @sdetweil I use VNC viewer pretty much all of the time to access this and nothing happens. I do see the green light occasionally flash on the pi when I try with the keyboard hooked up to it & my tv.

                So I am still getting this about every 3-5 days. I have now playing on spotify and am wondering if that is the issue. Dark Sky is my weather app but the issue I had with the number of requests is not an issue any more. Curious as to why this happens. At the same time I can see the screen via my remote module

                        @motdog so, some module crashed… the old updateNotofication module might still be the cause… is that enabled in config?
