Hi, I don't know what is wrong, I've just connected to debug a status node catching all flow's nodes status, and as I deploy I see an infinite messages. Nothing is going on the flow, most of these messages coming from delay nodes. Is it normal? Thank you
Set the catch to only show one of the problem nodes. Add debug nodes showing all inputs and output of the node and check there are no messages. If none then show us the catch output and how you have configured the delay node.
Hi, thanks for reply )
For privacy reasons I would like to not post all flow, I've created a small one and I see it appear, just after deploying, I've this message
msg : Object

Here is the flow:

I created it to be sure that a null message really makes the output of the function node silent, it is.
On the big flow I've an amazing amount of this delay empty messages, comoing from all delays in the flow and persisting in the time (the debug is filling up really fast) and they come also from nodes which are absolutely isolated from inputs, I mean, they are connected to functions (that anyway are set to null if a wrong message is coming) but this functions are not sollecitated by any event. Why?
Fortunately the cpu is very low so I don't knw if it's a normal behaviour, but I guess not
I am not seeing any debug output from your flow when I deploy or when I hit the Inject.
What are you running node-red on?
Stop node red and then start it in a terminal and post the full startup log here please (including some of the unexpected messages). When posting the log use the </> button above the forum entry window and paste it in. For the future please use that method for posting flows too.
Hi! I?m always use </> button.. exactly I paste the code, then select it and press </>, I don't know what is wrong on my message..
EDIT: probably I used only one apostrof then 3 for multiple lines?

I have corrected the backticks on your previous post, as you said, you only had single ticks.
I cannot see any of the status node messages in the log you posted, but I do see a number of errors flagged there. I would start by fixing those.
Ok, I will, but it doesn't solve the problem. I don't know why, you need to give me more instruments to debug what is going on.
The usual reason is when people set the debug node connected to the status node to report to its status - so the status node then sees that and reports it again and so creates an infinite loop. Apart from that I would suggest trying to set the status to only report from nodes you know you want to report from to try to narrow down where he messages are coming from.
As I said, the test flow you posted does not output any debug on my system. You could start by updating to the latest node red, though I will be surprised if that shows the problem.
Also, in your test flow set the status node to only show output from the node in the flow as suggested by Nick.
