Hi Rui,

I followed all the instructions but I can’t always secure my node-red with this
sudo nano ~/.node-red/settings.js
I got the message ”incorrect password”!!!
Also, the node-red does not start automatically on reboot. I have to start it manually if you have any idea. I’m using Digitalocean Ubuntu.
Best regards.

Hi Rui,

I do that without any errors. I can access to my website like http://example.com and https://example.com but i cannot access to http://example.com:1880 and https://example.com:1880 so what i have to check?

Best regards.

In reply to Otto Ziegler. If you do the Initial Server Setup with Ubuntu 20.04. tutorial you can use putty to connect to your server.

Installing globally on a current Ubuntu 20.04 puts it in /usr/bin so this is incorrect a fails.

ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/node-red –max-old-space-size=128 -v

It’s incorrect in the Digital Ocean instructions also….

Hi Rui, Thankyou for your great tutorial. If I register to Digital Ocean for 1 month only, Should I charged ?

Hi,

I released a Node/App/Service called Remote-RED. With this you can access your Dashboard also from anywhere, but without having your Node-RED installed in the cloud. So also all other IoT/Smarthome connections are possible, that requires a local Node-RED.

Greetings!

I have tried following this tutorial, but have failed miserably. This is my time trying to set up anything on Ubuntu and I find it absolutely unworkable. Console window does not allow Highlighting, Copying or Pasting, so password had to be painstakingly copied by hand & then re-entered. Now when I try to open the Node Red terminal I get nothing.

Time to try something else – this is ridiculous.
