@sdetweil Thanks Sam! I clearly need some education. Do you have a favorite set of training documentation for newbies

Problem resolved! Outstanding.

My thanks to all who responded.

My mission now is to research the provided solution and try to understand why it worked. Clearly the devil is in the details.

Thanks again to all of you

@sdetweil
Thanks for the quick reply. I changed the crontab. I actually changed it to PM2 START MagicMirror.

The process I used was to , via the terminal, pm2 stop MagicMirror. This worked and MagicMirror was stopped sucessfully.
Crontab was updated as above PM2 START MagicMirror.
It did not start.

Here are the entries from the log file

Nov 27 13:44:01 raspberrypi CRON[3620]: (pi) CMD (SUDO PM2 START MagicMirror)
Nov 27 13:44:01 raspberrypi CRON[3618]: (CRON) info (No MTA installed, discarding output)
Nov 27 13:55:01 raspberrypi CRON[3661]: (root) CMD (sudo pm2 restart MagicMirror)
Nov 27 13:55:04 raspberrypi CRON[3659]: (CRON) info (No MTA installed, discarding output)
Nov 27 14:17:01 raspberrypi CRON[3772]: (root) CMD ( cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.hourly)

I have researched all of the documentation I can find but have failed to resolve this problem.
I can create a Crontab entry as follows 44 * * * * PM2 restart MagicMirror

I created a second entry to put a date entry in a file each minute in the same crontab . This one works as expected.

My research has exposed this kind of issue using pm2 and I’ve attempted to implement suggested resolutions. All were ineffective.

Forgive me if I missed a posed solution but would greatly appreciate any assistance.

Thanks

I changed the Hello Lucy with Pages keyword to activate listening to any entry other than HELLO LUCY and the on screen display still indicates Hello Lucy. Is there any way to change it so it matches the keyword to activate listening entry I made??

Thanks for any assistance.

{
disabled: false,
module: “AnyEntry”,
position: “top_center”,
config: {
keyword: ‘HELLO LUCY’, // keyword to activate listening for a command/sentence
timeout: 15, // timeout listening for a command/sentence
standByMethod: ‘DPMS’, // ‘DPMS’ = anything else than RPi or ‘PI’
microphone: “0,0”,

As with most things in life it will take two things to get you in trouble. In this instance I experienced The Part 5 errors noted here. I spent a couple of day researching NPM before doing as indicated in the install error messages ( Change Production Value ). That change produced other warnings and I attempted to test but failed. In the end the install and Hello-Lucy worked as advertised. The second problem was a mini microphone.

Thanks for the help!

Thanks for the quick Response. I followed the install process from
github mykle1 /Hello-Lucy . The steps I followed areshown below.

3 Step Installation
Please complete all 3

git clone https://github.com/mykle1/Hello-Lucy into the ~/MagicMirror/modules directory
cd Hello-Lucy/installers
bash dependencies.sh

Thanks Desert Rat

Re: Hello-Lucy installation troubles
I’m new to the Forum and a have a problem installing Hello Lucy. I receive error messages, shown below, when running part 5 of the install.

I followed all install instructions and verified my microphone and sound were working.

Would appreciate any assistance on how to proceed to complete this installation.

Thanks Desert-Rat
