My ubuntu server warned me that the TB of storage was getting full which was a shock. Turned out I had 950 Gb of .pm2 error logs and the problem log file was _node-red-error.log_. It was full of the same message:
_Cannot find module node-red_
- /usr/local/bin/node-red\*
But my node red is installed in /usr/bin and is working fine. I tried "which node-red" and it correctly points to /usr/bin
How can I fix this please?

Presumably this is a problem with the way you are using pm2. Are you using that for a reason? The [recommended node-red install script](https://nodered.org/docs/getting-started/raspberrypi) for node-red on Ubuntu/Debian/Pi uses systemd not pm2. If you do need to use pm2 then how did you install node-red?
