Suddenly 2 of my rasberry stopped working the same problem. The node rpi-gpio out is grey and disappered from the node collection. In the flow is says "Unknown: rpi-gpio out".
I've upgraded Raspian to latest. Removed from palette the node-red-node-pi-gpio. Restarted and reinstalled it. But no luck. My Rasperrys is one pi4 and one pi zero W. I believe it happend on the 6/12 if it's any lead.
Best Regards Magnus
Did you do anything to the two pis (or anything else in your network) at the time it failed?
None. that should do anything with this.
I saw not when checking more closely on pi zero W that also gpio in is missing. That pi runs version 1.2.3 of node-red-node-pi-gpio.
Maybe they should not be anything to do with this, but obviously something happened. So what did you do?
Have you tried re-booting? Also try clearing the cache in the browser (using the browser menus to clear it).
The only thing I've done is working on a bash script on another machine totaly irrelevant. The pi4 is after i detected the problem upgraded to latest Raspian and reinstalled the node. Nothing else have I done. And about cache in browser is also tested. Still problem.
For it to happen on two pis at the same time without you doing anything to the pis means that is something external to the pis, or it is a most remarkable co-incidence.
Open the browser console and see if you see any errors when you refresh the page
Also stop node red and start it again in a terminal and post the output here.

I don't know if it's any help but both my pi:s respond when I write command
gpio readall with
Oops - unable to determine board type... model: 17
Check you are using the latest versions of all the pi s/w packages
sudo apt update
sudo apt full-upgrade
Then reboot
Check your settings file for the RasPi. (raspi-config) and make sure the GPIO setting is still active.
Done, check on that. Did that before asking for help.
I'm not sure really if I did right here on this tip.
If not point me in right direction please

Did you install using the recommended script ? You seem to have be using node10 which is no longer supported, so is that deliberate?
Hi!
I do think you are on something here. I tried the install script earlier today. It detected that I ran node10 and let me choose what to do. I don't remember what the script said but I thought i've done correct. The script downloaded I believe 1,4Gb and needed a reboot. Therefore I thought thats done. What to do next?
Running Node-RED install for user pi at /home/pi on raspbian
Nodejs 10 is no longer supported.
You can update to the latest Node-RED 1.x version by adding --nodered-version="1.3.5"
to that install command. If in doubt this is the safer option.
Or you can force an install of node 12 or 14 by using the --node12, --node14 or --node16 parameter
However doing so may break some nodes that may need re-installing manually.
Generally it is recommended to upgrade all nodes to their latest versions before upgrading.
Please backup your installation and flows before upgrading.
Do you have any critical non standard nodes (iE ones for some specific hardware or device?). If not I would go for the --node14 option
I ran the install script again with --node14 option and it worked fine. After that I had to edit the settings.js to set the uiHost: "192.168.200.232"
Now it's up and running using chrome browser but for some reason it won't work with my old safari, but thats ok.
It isn't normally necessary to do that, did something not work without it? Leaving it unset should allow access via localhost or via the ip address.
