Why does my Mac mini reboot almost every night?

iI get a big long report but the first few lines should be enough to post here. Apple support had me reinstall the os but that didn't help. It is up to date with all updates. I leave it on 24/7 and nothing has changed with my attached peripherals. panic(cpu 2 caller 0xfffffe002c4e1bec): "AppleT8112DPTXPort(dptx-phy)::deactivateTimeoutOccurred(0x100000389): deactivate() incomplete 10 seconds after displayRelease()! (check DCPEXT)\n" @AppleT8112DPTXPort.cpp:574

Create a new Administrator user, and then let it set for the night, seeing if this stops. If so, then it is an issue with your current user. If not, then it is an issue with the entire macOS.

The latest macOS versions are having issues with the automatic computer sleep settings.

Some crash and force a restart, others just freeze up and are unresponsive.


As a test:

Turn On "Prevent automatic sleeping when display is off" and only allowing the display to turn off.


Then just leave the Mac On with display Off and/or shut down for longer periods of non-use.
