Hi,

After importing and testing a flow, I decided to disable the flow for later use. To be able to use this flow, it was necessary to install a local MySQL database (Windows laptop). I uninstalled this installation locally. After that, I stopped and started the node-RED server on my Pi, but now I don't have a dashboard anymore (dashboard nodes are still present) and I can't deploy a new flow either.

Finally I deleted the test flow but I still see a reference Waiting for missing types to be registered:  
Is that the cause of the above problems and how do I solve it?

Your flow credentials file is encrypted using a system-generated key.
If the system-generated key is lost for any reason, your credentials
file will not be recoverable, you will have to delete it and re-enter
your credentials.
You should set your own key using the 'credentialSecret' option in
your settings file. Node-RED will then re-encrypt your credentials
file using your chosen key the next time you deploy a change.

search (CTRL-F) for `MySQLdatabase` - it will probably be an unused config node - delete it and deploy.
