Hi, I've setting up Homebridge for a pal of mine. He's got a RPi 4 running latest version of HOOBS. They helpfully provide an install script to run to install NodeRED to run alongside it. Installed it and it confirmed it was done successfully and I could access at hoobs.local:1880 (or :1880). I've rebooted the Pi a few times after install to see if it would help but, so far, nothing has. Basically, I cannot access NodeRED! If I do hoobs.local:1880 the progress bar hangs and nothing happens. If I try the IP address route I get a screen telling me it's unable to connect to the server. As a side note, I have my own HOOBs and NodeRED installations running (albeit on individual RPi 3's) and I can connect to NodeRED via IP address:1880 route. I presume there is no conflict happening because of this? Any help would be greatly appreciated. ---

I don't understand, first you say you could access it, then you say you can't. Please explain in more detail what the problem is. ---

Why have you posted your original message again after saying it was solved, or is the forum doing strange things? ---
