@Ivanov_d pm2 stop 0 Then pm2 remove 0

Hello, unfortunately I have a problem with my PIR-Sensor. I followed the instructions of MagicMirrorCentral (https://www.magicmirrorcentral.com/pir-sensor-raspberry-pi-magic-mirror/). Now the PIR sensor also works. But after I installed that and restarted the Raspi, my desktop is black. But only the desktop. The application, MagicMirror, is displayed. When I minimize MM with Ctrl + M, I only see a black desktop. The mouse pointer is displayed and can be moved. But I can not click on anything. Of course I already tried the option with “vcgencmd display_power 1”. Unfortunately with the same result. I would really appreciate, if you could help me. Thank you in advance. Lars

Hello, thank you for your help. The changes works. Lars

Hello, I have a problem with my two MMs. Both runs independently. For both MMs, the monitor always turns off at the same time (MM one every day at about 8 a.m., MM two every day at about 21:30 p.m.) and stays off until the PI is restarted. The monitor one turns off after about 3 hours after reboot, the other after about 16 hours after reboot. For both PIs I installed the XScreensaver and deactivated the screensaver. Monitor one has an installed PIR sensor but the other one does not. When I connect via VNC, I can see the MM display. But not at the monitor. I have unfortunately no idea, why the monitor turns off. I would really appreciate if anyone have a good advice for me. Thanks in advance. Lars

Hello, currently I am building a new MM and have at the beginning unusual problems. I installed the MM blank and take my old config.js from my old MM. After that the MM starts normally via pm2. As soon as I installed the first module, the MM does not start anymore via pm2. The pm2-Logs are pi@raspberrypi:~ $ pm2 logs MagicMirror [TAILING] Tailing last 15 lines for [MagicMirror] process (change the value with --lines option) /home/pi/.pm2/logs/MagicMirror-out.log last 15 lines: 0|MagicMir | All module helpers loaded. 0|MagicMir | Starting server on port 8080 ... 0|MagicMir | Server started ... 0|MagicMir | Connecting socket for: calendar 0|MagicMir | Starting node helper for: calendar 0|MagicMir | Connecting socket for: newsfeed 0|MagicMir | Starting module: newsfeed 0|MagicMir | Sockets connected & modules started ... 0|MagicMir | Launching application. 0|MagicMir | Create new calendar fetcher for url: https://calendar.google.com/…/…/private-xxxxxxxxxx/basic.ics - Interval: 300000 0|MagicMir | Create new calendar fetcher for url: https://calendar.google.com/…/…/private-xxxxxxxxxx/basic.ics - Interval: 300000 0|MagicMir | Create new news fetcher for url: http://www.tagesschau.de/xml/rss2 - Interval: 300000 0|MagicMir | Shutting down server... 0|MagicMir | Stopping module helper: calendar 0|MagicMir | Stopping module helper: newsfeed /home/pi/.pm2/logs/MagicMirror-error.log last 15 lines: 0|MagicMir | { Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open 'package.json' 0|MagicMir | at Object.fs.openSync (fs.js:660:18) 0|MagicMir | at Object.fs.readFileSync (fs.js:565:33) 0|MagicMir | at Object.<anonymous> (/home/pi/MagicMirror/js/app.js:15:32) 0|MagicMir | at Module._compile (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:654:30) 0|MagicMir | at Object.Module._extensions..js (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:665:10) 0|MagicMir | at Module.load (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:566:32) 0|MagicMir | at tryModuleLoad (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:506:12) 0|MagicMir | at Function.Module._load (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:498:3) 0|MagicMir | at Module.require (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:598:17) 0|MagicMir | at require (internal/modules/cjs/helpers.js:11:18) 0|MagicMir | errno: -2, 0|MagicMir | code: 'ENOENT', 0|MagicMir | syscall: 'open', 0|MagicMir | path: 'package.json' } When the MM start via pm2 the package.json file seems to be corrupt. When I start with DISPLAY =: 0 it works. I would be grateful if someone could help me. Thanks in advance.

@Klinge For using Paviros module MMM-PIR-Sensor your config is wrong. Instead of module: 'MMM-PIR', you have to use module: 'MMM-PIR-Sensor', Also the options “delay”, “turnOffDisplay” and “showCountdown” are not part of the module MMM-PIR-Sensor and so there are not working. AxLED

Oh my god. What a stupid error. I installed the module in den /MagicMirror folder. Again a Layer 8 problem. Excuse me for wasting your time. But I’m so thankful to you. :-)

@rts58 That worked. Thank you very much.

Yes, that´s it. Thank your for this great tip.

Its about using the hdmi output of the pi. And it looks you’re doing that. But you can try hooking up the pi to another monitor, e.g. a tv to rule it out?

The PIR-Module doesn’t work correctly. I got a tip to change in the module directory and enter npm install. I did it, the module was rebuild and so the MM works. Thank you.

Please note this module was migrated to use the Dark Sky API and is now available as “MMM-DarkSky24Hours” under https://github.com/thobach/MMM-DarkSky24Hours.

I have had exactly the same mistake on my side, wiring was wrong. It did not kill the sensor but it’s output status was always high. Also I had the mixed up SensorPin and the acutally Pin Number on the Pi.

Ah, ok! I misunderstood the logic of appid. Now it works! Thanks for your help!
