@humdinger44 can’t do that. Have to stop other 1st. Only one copy running at a time

@humdinger44 that says u are trying to run two copies on the same port. No can do do u have 2 entries for pm2 startup?

@humdinger44 note, this is in the terminal window where u issue npm start…

Or it should appear in the pm2 logs

I changed my key so it was invalid, and see an error in the terminal window

[MMM-DarkSkyForecast] 15-May-19 09:11 ** ERROR ** null

the ‘loading’ problem is typical of a module that displays a default message (‘Loading…’)
which is replaced when the data arrives. So, the data did not arrive…

can u open the developers window and select the console tab and put DarkSky in the filter box. to remove any other messages…

there should be some message about the api usage, key, … something

@poopyurinal also use the MMM-Alexa module

@poopyurinal no problem… let us know either way

i use the assistantmk2 module… don’t need that py file

once u create the service… make sure assistant.py is not running already

ps -ef | grep assistant 

the 1st number on the output is the process id
pi xxxx yyyy etc…
then

sudo kill -9 xxxx

then do

sudo systemctl start GoogleAssistant

then

ps -ef | grep assistant 

to insure assistant is running
then start mirror manually with npm start

if all is good, reboot

service will start the assistant.py script
and pm2 will start mirror app

in the link it asks for ‘your service name’ make that GoogleAssistant
the command is ‘/home/pi/MagicMirror/modulesMMM-GoogleAssistant/python3 assistant.py’

@poopyurinal cool now follow the link i gave about creating a service that will autostart and make it start the assitant.py

I don’t understand why the MMM-GoogleAssistant module doesn’t do this… it would be so easy…
