🎉 Node-RED 4.0 released

News
20

Hi all,

For testing purposes I use an old model Raspberry Pi 1B and have been running version 3.1.10 so far successfully. Version of NodeJS and npm: v18.18.0 Npm 9.8.1.

I intended to upgrade to version 3.1.11, but coincidentally upgraded to 4.0.0.

I tried to upgrade to node 20, which was not successful. It did not change and version 18 is still installed. Confirmed by node -v and npm - v commands.

Trying to start Node-RED results in an error:

Starting as a systemd service.
nodered.service: Main process exited, code=killed, status=4/ILL
nodered.service: Failed with result 'signal'.
nodered.service: Service RestartSec=20s expired, scheduling restart.
nodered.service: Scheduled restart job, restart counter is at 1.
Stopped Node-RED graphical event wiring tool.

Etc.

Questions:

  1. Is the Raspberry Pi, model 1B still supported with.Node RED 4.0.0?
  2. Can NodeJS 20 be installed on this Pi or is 18 the highest available version?
    Version v20.15.0 has been published yesterday.
  3. If all can be confirmed, how to install v20 and how to solve the error.?

Regards
