Node-red-dashboard-2-ui-lcd no "Group" field dropdown

General

Hi All, I just installed the above node for a looksee on my server (Node-RED 4.0.9) and the node's setup menu "Group" field does not have a pull down to select or create a dashboard group so I cannot set it up. I have tried a manual entry but this does not seem to work. Has anyone else seen this and have a solution before I raise a bug on Github?

Thanks

That sounds like a bad install. Maybe remove, reinstall, restart Node-red?

It works for me.

Tried that (uninstall/reinstall and restart NR, refresh browser) - still no drop down :frowning:

What operating system are you running?
What does node-red --version show you?

Debian 11
NR 4.0.9
Node.js 20.18.3
npm 10.0.2

No obvious issue there.

Perhaps there is a hint in the installation log - on my Raspberry Pi that would be in /var/log/syslog, or else using the "View log" button in Manage Palette.

Ya. Still checking. Looks like node has been installed and updated a few times via apt and nvm so I am going to remove them all and start over, but I won't be able to do that until tomorrow. To be continued...

Also - don’t use nvm.
