Hi, i have using node inject as init flow. But i have a trouble.
When i unplugged my wire ethernet and after plugged, my node flow restarted...
How I can avoid this? and make it start only when my node red boots

What do the Node-RED logs show?
Did Node-RED restart for some reasons when you pulled the network cable? That's the only reason the Inject node would be triggered again.

It depends on how you installed Node-RED, and how you run it. If you can describe how you set it up, we can point you at the logs.

You're going to have to work this out yourself as I can't dig through your logs.
As I said, the only reason an Inject node would fire on start is if Node-RED has restarted. So you need to look at the logs whilst pulling the network cable. (use `node-red-log` to stream the logs - assuming you used the pi install script you linked to) to see what Node-RED does.

I found the log share my capture

That just shows lots of attempts to run Node-RED when it was already running. Again, I don't know how any of that log relates to when you pulled out the network cable.

In another post I read that the problem is:
I'm not very good at this to solve it
```auto
[error] Error: send ENETUNREACH 255.255.255.255:44818
```

Having a single line like that without any context makes it hard to suggest what is wrong.
What other post did you read to find that?
My guess is a node you have does not like having the network pulled out and is crashing Node-RED. Node-RED then restarts and retriggers your Inject node.
So the question is what node is causing the crash.... that isn't something we can tell you without a more complete log output from the error.

I opened an empty project and it keeps throwing that error, now I'm going to reinstall my system in case something is misconfigured

I found the problem and how do I fix it!
It turns out that I am using an orange Pi device but I installed node-red using the following link because it has debian opartive system.
[Running on Raspberry Pi : Node-RED (nodered.org)](https://nodered.org/docs/getting-started/raspberrypi)
Any method of installing using those link, they broke node-red on my operating system.
The solution is the next:
Step 1:Install node-red using:
> npm install -g --unsafe-perm node-red
Step2 then pm2 should be installed
> sudo npm install -g pm2
> pm2 start /usr/bin/node-red --node-args="--max-old-space-size=128" -- -v
> pm2 save
> pm2 startup
> pm2 startup systemd
And last step reboot system
