I will grab that next time it locks up. Thanks!

Good Day,

I’m using MMM-RAIN-RADAR on my MM, and it’s great. Family loves it, and even though support for it has been suspended, we’ll continue to use it. One of the issues I notice with it, though, is that the module stops updating after a couple of hours. The module is still there, but the radar content disappears. I’ve setup a cron to run “pm2 restart mm.sh” every four hours, but that seems to be a bit overkill, and I’ve recently discovered the 4 hours interval isn’t even enough. We still find it stops updating radar content.

Which brings me to my question. I’ve read there is no way to “reload” individual modules, but is there anything faster / more efficient to update / reload MM without restarting the whole service? Something I could potentially cron to run every hour or so?

Thank you!

@sdetweil No luck on this side. I may just do a reinstall at this point. Not sure what’s causing the hangup

@ultimatum22 I’m not sure what you mean. Doesn’t 'DISPLAY=:0" mean the attached display? I’ve got the Pi hooked up to a 24" TV display.

Hello,

I recently installed MM on a Pi 3, and for some reason I can’t make it past this point. I tried removing the NYT module and it got stuck on the holidays iCal. Do I need to adjust the interval to force it sooner? I wouldn’t think so, but I’m not sure. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Edit: I should add, this is with default config.js file (after renaming from config.js.sample)

Edit 2: ran the check_config.js and it says my configuration file doesn’t contain syntax errors.
