Problem with Remote Red

I have ported my remote red application to another computer. It runs perfectly after a few little updates.
However I have a problem. My remote-access node says "Configuration Incomplete".


There isn't actually much to configure there but when I go into the node-red-ui node and hit "Connect Remote Red App" I get an error "Error while registering Instance"


Any ideas as to what I need to do?

I don't know what this is so can't really help.

What is the name that node? I can't seem to find it in the flows library. Is it a Home Assistant node by any chance?

How did you move the flow to the other computer?
Did you configure that node on the new computer?

It's the RemoteAccess Node, mentioned in https://flows.nodered.org/node/node-red-contrib-remote
It allows me to view the ui on my phone when I am out in the field. Plus it sends alerts when it is triggered to do so.
I moved the app by exporting it to a json file and then installed Node Red on the new machine and imported it into that. Went surprisingly well, except, of course, the credentials didn't come across, so I had to re-enter those.
What is supposed to happen here is that when I hit "Connect Remote Red App" it should present a QR code to scan on my phobe to complete the connection.

As this is a contributed node, I think you will have to raise an issue on GitHub GitHub · Where software is built

Not sure how many people in the forum use that node. Most of us create our own remote access if we need it.

Thanks for your responses all. The issue is now resolved. It was more of a network handshaking issue that a Node Red one.
Thanks once again.
