Moving a discussion about logging from anther tread here as logging is a separate topic. I am trying to understand how to get my node.warn messages and any error messages that show up in the side bar to log to a file for later analysis. This is being done on a Raspberry Pi running headless with Nod…

Fixed the snippet, I inadvertently hit a key and you found my message while I was fixing things

I just tried this in my function node: node.warn("hi from node.warn") node.log("hi from node.log") return msg; and in settings.js, I commented out metrics and audit so my log settings are: console: { /** Level of logging to be recorded. Options are: * fatal - o…

No, it seems to run fine which is why I've ignored it. I figured it's related to Raspberry Pi GPIOs which I'm not using so I haven't bothered to try and resolve that error.

Another thing to try is to rename your .node-red directory temporarily. Then restart node red which will create a new directory with everything back at default settings. Then try node.warn() again.

Unfortunately starting with a default settings.js didn't work unless logging is impacted by adding an extra context store. Could it be a version thing? I'm running on a Raspberry Pi which has some special consideration and needs special install scripts. The documentation mentions some consideration…

[image] Matt.L: starting with a default settings.js didn't work I didn't say to do that, I said to rename the .node-red directory so you start from scratch. If it still doesn't work show us the startup log when you start node red after renaming .node-red

/bin/sh: 1: /home/pi/.node-red/node_modules/node-red-node-pi-gpio/testgpio.py: not found

Does node-red crash and restart after this line ?
