Hi, I've run into a problem which I hope someone can help me with. I'm suddenly getting an error on a HTTP node that is POSTing to another server. The flow has been perfectly for almost a year and now suddenly I'm getting the following error: "TypeError: First argument should be a valid curve name…

[image] smit.riaan: TypeError: First argument should be a valid curve name" What version of node.js are you using?

Did you try searching for that error before asking here? A quick google shows a few comments about people hitting that error with node 6.x. Node 6 is no longer maintained and the latest Node-RED release (0.20) does not support it. You should upgrade to Node 10.x.

Yip did look but didn't but the items I went though pertained to users passing objects instead of strings etc. didn't see any calling out a version issue. Strange though that I suddenly run into a version issue. Did the upgrade resolve the issue for the cases you saw in your search?

I didn't look too closely... just enough to see this was an error with Node 6 which Node-RED 0.20 doesn't support. Given we don't support Node 6, I didn't spend anymore time investigating for you.

Thx appreciate the assistance. Will start by upgrading.
