check to see if you have an unused configuration node and delete them

thanks for reply, no node listed. I wonder if i installed the node directly to node red user file ? I might have dragged dropped it or installed it in the node red "running" directory ? Late nights with new things...  
inshort, i installed lgtv node with an old ip/port and node red is still looking for this. The lgtv node has been removed and reinstalled with new ip/port.

here is terminal shot

ehostdown info(192.168.10.112:1272) refers to old configuration  
(192.168.10.113:49826) is the new config

Have you tried searching?

In the node-red editor CTRL-F and type `192.168.10.112` or `LG` see if it turns up.

You have a TCP Out node that is being told to use that address. That is what you need to change.

Thanks for all replies, appreciate your help, i finally found a problem. i have 2 nodes that turned up outside of viewer view. Erased them and rebooted , they turned up again in the same location, way off to the right. Any ideas ??  
1 node is inject (payload with name) 2 node is old lgtv node with the problem ip and port. They keep coming back, is it possible that the nodes are somehow running from node red boot , i.e. in the node red boot application (not sure i am wording this correctly ) ? New to a lot of this , thanks

It's definitely in you flow as it comes after `starting flows`

Try searching TCP and open any/all TCP nodes. See if you can't find it.

And to be sure you are using node-red search (and not browser search) use the menu button (far top right looks like 3 horizontal bars e.g. [Like this](https://nodered.org/docs/user-guide/editor/workspace/search)) & select search from there.

Alternatively you may have to dig into your flows.json file.

Obvious question but I have to ask. Did you deploy after deleting?

If you did then possibly a permissions issue? Perhaps node-red can't save the flow and is then reloaded after a reboot.
