@lavolp3 starting it manually does work. but with PM2 not.

@lavolp3 The Mirror does start if i start it manually.

this is the whole error log:

These are the logs of pm2.
The Mirror does not start if i start it from pm2.

thanks for helping! :)

@lavolp3 this was in the LOG of pm2:

Error ENOENT no such file or directory, open ‘packages.json’

I think the command was open packages.json

Hi!

I recently wanted to build a magicmirror.

I installed the Magicmirror software and also automatically pm2.

Everything worked fine. The Magicmirror came up.
Then i rebooted the Raspberry.
From there on pm2 didn’t work anymore.
This was in the log:

:::

//Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open 'package.json'

:::

Does someone know what i have to do?
