I was trying to read values from a BACnet gateway(nothing but a Raspberrry pi board). Below error is faced when reading the BACnet read mode. So please help in fixing this issue which is the cause of frequent restarts of Node red because of which other flows are not accessible/executing  
"[error] Error: bind EACCES 0.0.0.0:1000 in ". The node red log file is also attached herewith for your ready reference

That's a very strange IP address and port combination - 0.0.0.0 could be used for monitoring all network traffic or as a broadcast by some systems but I would normally expect a routable IP address to be used (e.g. 192.168.1.1 etc).

Sorry but that's all I've got as I do not know BACnet at all.

Often to listen on ports below 1024 you need privileged ( root) access. Are you able to choose a port greater than 1024? If not you can try running as root but that brings other security concerns.

If the flows are deleted using Delete Project option in Node Red-Project Files then, can you please confirm if all the keys & certifications need to be re configured again when a new flow is created or backup flow is imported
