Set up with PM2 - webhook call script, script calls PM2 - now I have two PM2 God Daemons running!

[Req]

My GH webhook call on push works and it calls update.sh . The update script contains pm2 restart all. This causes the following journalctl log:

[2024-12-04 14:32:03] Restarting PM2 services
[PM2][Initialization] Environment variable HOME (Linux) or HOMEPATH (Windows) are not set!
[PM2][Initialization] Defaulting to /etc/.pm2

However, in my script I do have HOME=/root along with PATH=... to make the pm2 binary work! Everything is running with the root user. Here's the two PM2 instances;

# ps aux |grep pm2
root        2959  0.0  1.9 858720 77440 ?        Ssl  Dec03   0:39 PM2 v5.4.3: God Daemon (/root/.pm2)
root       31383  0.0  1.5 781696 61320 ?        Ssl  14:32   0:00 PM2 v5.4.3: God Daemon (/etc/.pm2)

Have I set something up wrong here? Is there another approach?

Can you paste the entire contents of your update.sh script?
