hi guys, yesterday I have made a fatal mistake which broke my node red (again :frowning: ). I have copied couple of nodes between two machines running node red. unfortunately this broke node red and removing npm, node js, deleted home folder and reinstalling everything (but not wiping system comp…

You certainly did not need to do all that to fix the problem, whatever it is. Show us the startup log from node red, it starts with the Welcome to node-RED message. Also tell us what operating system/hardware you are running on and how you installed it.

Hi @Colin , thank you for your reply. I am currently running NR on debian stretch 64 bit, with latest npm and node js version 10.15.2 lts. heres the output from startup: Starting as a systemd service. Started Node-RED graphical event wiring tool. 2 Mar 10:51:26 - [info] Welcome to Node-RED =======…

I see that node ( node-red-contrib-mi-sensors ) is from the github repository https://github.com/yaming116/node-red-contrib-mi-devices which is a fork of https://github.com/pierrecle/node-red-contrib-mi-devices which has this issue against it: https://github.com/pierrecle/node-red-contrib-mi-devices…

thank you, but that is not that issue. this one refers to yeelights node, which gives out the error but this error is not related to the issue i am having. thank you

[image] Samuel: this one refers to yeelights node, which gives out the error but this error is not related to the issue i am having. I can see that error in the log you posted. Fix that one first. [Edit] Further, the error you say you are getting is not in the log.

Further, you say you want to wipe all node-red related stuff so you can start afresh, but presumably after you deleted your home folder and started again, when you first ran node-red you did not see the problem. If so then what good will uninstalling node-red do?

Hi Colin, thank you for your replies and your time. After wiping home folder out as well as removing npm/node js and starting fresh - I can see the error coming up. It is only with this sensor, and that very same sensor works on my other instance of node-red on raspi. I am in the middle of setting…

If you wiped your home folder then it should have started with an empty flow. So you should not get the errors. The xaomi node will not even be installed.

Delete the .node-red folder /home/bednarz/.node-red (or rename it in case you want it back) and restart node-red. See what it shows in the log then. Post that log here if necessary. Note that it will be different the first time as it should show it creating an empty flows file.

This is exactly what I thought but it wasn't the case and I have no idea why.
