It seems like it's trying to invoke some commands with Docker but the Node-RED is running locally.
Cheers.

Looks like docker causing issues again.

If you aren't using Docker, it looks like you have some docker stuff in your config that you will need to unpick.

Could you point me, where I should be looking? Cheers

Sorry, I don't use docker for Node-RED (nor at all if I can help it).

At a guess, I'd say that you used a Node-RED docker install script to install Node-RED? If so, you may have to uninstall that first. Then you may well have to install node-red from scratch.

I don't use Docker for Node-RED on this machine either, so I'm a bit confused. I'll try to search through the system to find anything to do with node-red and docker.

Removed Docker from my system, run bash <(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/node-red/linux-installers/master/deb/update-nodejs-and-nodered) to update NodeRED from 1.2.6 to 1.2.7 and node-red-contrib-ui-time-scheduler disappeared from my system. Not sure, if this is what helped but no errors anymore.

Looks like, after system reboot, the packages appeared again together with the issue. Spending good time reading logs, I found there was a deprecated package: node-modbus. I think, this is solved now.
