Hi community,

First of all: sorry for my english…

i got a Problem with my Dashboard, after i finished programming some Nodes and adding their data to the Dashboard, i shut my raspberry down.  
After i reboot it this morning again and wanted to check my Dashboard, it doesn t worked any longer.  
There is always this message:  
Welcome to the Node-RED Dashboard  
Please add some UI nodes to your flow and redeploy.

but i already added some ui Dashboard notes…

could any one help my to fix this Problem?

It would be useful to see the log that Node-RED prints when you start it.

Also have you installed any other nodes that include the word “dashboard”? If you have these unfortunately stop the node-red-dashboard from working. You should delete them and then restart Node-RED

Do you need the following nodes that you have installed?

They are for use in Bluemix but you have it installed on a raspberry pi. Try deleting them and restarting node-red.

So that suggests you are using the mongoldb nodes. If you are definitely not…

In a terminal  
`node-red-stop`

`cd ~/.node-red`

and then

`npm uninstall node-red-bluemix-nodes`

then restart Node-RED

If you look at the menubar in Node-RED there is a “Search flows” option and see if you can find it

Otherwise look at “Configuration nodes”

probably it was a configuration node which blocked my Dashboard ui. So i deleted all background nodes and stuff i don’t needed any more and now it works.  
I hope it is still working tomorrow
