pls help me  
hi I cant deploy any flow  
I see this Error in Editor  
`Deploy failed {"code":"unexpected_error","message":"Cannot read property 'rev' of null"}`

## **Dockerfile**

```auto
FROM nodered/node-red

# Copy package.json to the WORKDIR so npm builds all
# of your added nodes modules for Node-RED
#COPY /data/package.json .
RUN npm install --unsafe-perm --no-update-notifier --no-fund --only=production

# Copy _your_ Node-RED project files into place
# NOTE: This will only work if you DO NOT later mount /data as an external volume.
# If you need to use an external volume for persistence then
# copy your settings and flows files to that volume instead.
COPY /data/settings.js /data/settings.js
COPY /data/flows_cred.json /data/flows_cred.json
COPY /data/flows.json /data/flows.json

# You should add extra nodes via your package.json file but you can also add them here:
#WORKDIR /usr/src/node-red
#RUN npm install node-red-node-smooth

```

## **docker-compose.yml**

```auto
