      @izanbard
      Thank you. I did the chmod to make it executable but using the ./update.sh worked. Thank you again for your help.

      @Snille
      I am new to Linex and I have copied your script exactly and I get the following error.
      -bash: update.sh: command not found

      I called the script update.sh and I was going to use it in a cron job after I tested it to make sure it worked. Can you tell me what I might have done wrong. Thank you in advance for your help.

    • RE: Motion Detection with RaspiCam, Non-Module version

      @bhepler I copied and pasted exactly what you wrote for the command to make sure I didn’t mistype something.
      Yes there are two processes running when I type pm2 status. One is MagicMirror and the other is motion.

    • RE: Motion Detection with RaspiCam, Non-Module version

      @bhepler The motion works only when MagicMirror isn’t running. I have it starting with pm2. When MagicMirror is running the motion doesn’t work. Any suggestions?

      I feel I am so close I followed the instructions exactly and I have motion started in pm2. it still doesn’t work. As I checked the motion-error-2.log I am seeing the following;

      Error: Cannot find module '/home/pi/motion'
          at Function.Module._resolveFilename (module.js:469:15)
          at Function.Module._load (module.js:417:25)

          at run (bootstrap_node.js:383:7)
      

      This is displayed over and over. I have checked for the directory /home/pi/motion and it is there. What am I missing?

      How would I set it up in pm2? I’d like to try it.

      I did get a picture when I typed that in so I know my camera is working.

      Here is the link to my config stuff.

      config stuff

      it sits there and my screen never blanked out, but I did notice that when I moved the block in front of the camera it did do something and when I put it back it did shut off the monitor.

      @jasonarends
      My motion.conf is located in my home directory. I looked for /etc/motion and I don’t have a directory called motion in /etc. So I made one and put motion.conf in there. My screen still doesn’t shut off. I did look over my motion.conf file and all my settings were exactly like yours. I did follow all the steps at the beginning of this post. I can also type in vcgencmd display_power 0 and it turns off the monitor and vcgencmd display_power 1 turns it back on. This is really getting frustrating. Thank you for your help.

      I also copied your updated_motion.conf.sh and double checked it and they match with the exception yours has a .sh at the end where mine does not. Is it supposed to have the .sh on the end of the file name or did it get added due to it being uploaded?

      How long does it take for the screen to blank out? So far the screen has stayed on and hasn’t even flickered. I have something in front of the Pi camera so it doesn’t pick up any movement and it has been over an hour now. Please help.
