@sdetweil Thank you for your advice and apologies for the delayed response - I need to enable email notifications or something…

I will try your suggestion. Much appreciated.

Thanks Sam. Any pointers would be good. It’s a fairly minor thing but it just seems a bit odd that after a single fetch error it just gives up forever (until restarted).

I’ve discovered the pm2 log so I will try and remember to have a look at that next time it throws the error.

I changed the config to update once every hour when I initially set it up:

updateInterval: 60 * 60

Hello. I have the MMM-MealieMenu module configured and working on an RPi5 but I run into a recurring issue where it will display a fetch error periodically.

I’m not sure what causes it to be briefly unable to get the meal plan but the “bug” in my mind is that once the module hits that error it will just stop trying to refreshing the data forever, until I restart the Magic Mirror service. Once I restart the service it will get the meal plan and be happy for a few more days.

I’m wondering if someone with more coding skills than myself can suggest a tweak to (presumably) the node_helper.js file so that it will allow the module to either try again at the next configured refresh cycle, or wait a period of time and retry repeatedly. Lines 120 to 126 seem to be the code block that deals with this particular error.

I’m not sure where I might find log information to troubleshoot why the fetch error occurs in the first place but it appears to just be temporary as the meal planner remains accessible at it’s URL when using a browser, despite the error on screen. It’s all hosted on the Pi using the docker image.
