Compatibility with Node-RED 4.0

[MPueschel]

Hi,

the Node does not seem to be compatible with Node-RED 4.0. Is there a simple solution for this? Thank you.

Trying to find a Workaround by creating a Symlink

I have now the same problem... :(

[jgantenberg]

There seems to be an issue with the upgrade from node-red 3.1 to 4.0. I run node-red with smartmeter module in a docker container and the upgrade to node-red 4.0 brought the discussed error. But now I set up a new blank container, installed all needed modules via palette and imported my flows from the old container. As usual I had to fill credentials manually but after that everything works fine.

thx jgantenberg

also first uninstalling only the smartmeter component, updating to nodered 4.0.x and reinstalling the smartmeter works for me in the docker environment

[MPueschel]

thx jgantenberg and MatzeG

MatzeG's approach worked perfectly for me.

I previously exported the smartmeter-node config and imported it again after updating and reinstalling.
