The latest Node-Red 13.5.3 crashes in HomeAssistant

[hdutoit]

I have recently upgraded Node-Red to the current version13.5.3 on Home Assistant 2022.11.4
Supervisor 2022.11.2
Operating System 9.3
Frontend 20221108.0 - latest

Since upgrading to the latest version of Node-Red it fails to start the Node-Red process. All my automations are done using Node-Red. So it's frustrating as none of my automations are able to run.

In the Node-Red logs it mentions:
30 Nov 15:23:23 - [error] Error: Invalid access token for websocket

REF:

Supervisor 2022.11.2

Node-RED

Any help would be appreciated as none of my automation work... so my Xmas lights don't work either...

Any assistance would be very much appreciated.

Get rid of Home Assistant and do the job in a fresh Node-red installation, maybe on a different machine?

This appears to be a Home Assistant issue. They package up node red for the plugin and we don't know what is in there. You are not the only one to have trouble with that version, see The latest NodeRed does not work on HomeAssistant

[jbudd]

I think @hdutoit knows about that thread! (Though they seem not to have learned from it)

[Colin]

Oh yes, so I see. Perhaps he/she has very poor short term memory.

Hi Colin,

Thank you for your speedy response. I would like to keep the solution I have purely due to time constraints..

Will look at running NodeRed on its own hardware platform in future.

By the looks of it the credentials were removed during upgrade/update.
Run node-red in safe mode, configure the credentials in the HA node(s) and deploy.
