I have flashed my BBB eMMC with the latest Debian buster and which has the Node-red already installed. Flashing goes well and Node-red runs automatically and it opens ok in browser. But the problem I face is that I can't find Node-red installation directory, to be able to edit the settings.js file. It is supposed to be here /root/.node-red, but I can't find it there. Also I am logged as a root user while searching for it. Is there any command where I can search for this file, because I am pretty new to Linux and Node-red?
Yes, it is /home/debian/bin# and "bin" is the only directory inside "debian". I tried to install again Node-red with this command "sudo npm i -g --unsafe-perm node-red", then the .node-red directory is created, but it appears that this is another installation. Not the installation which runs automatically after startup. If I try to stop the node-red, it shows this message, even node-red opens well in browser.
root@beaglebone:~/.node-red# sudo service node-red stop
Failed to stop node-red.service: Unit node-red.service not loaded.
On BBB I think it is ./var/lib/node-red/.node-red/settings.js
If you run sudo service nodered restart
then tail -f /var/log/syslog | grep Node-RED
you should see the startup debug that will print it out.
PS there seems to be some sort of bug with the GPIO overlays in latest updates (on web) - so stick with the vanilla SD card version for a while if you want to use GPIO)
