Addon fails to start after update to 18.1.x

[crasu]

Problem/Motivation

The addon does no longer start inside of hass os (probably after update to 18.1.x)

Actual behavior

A critical error is logged:

2 Oct 23:33:12 - [debug] [server:Home Assistant] States Loaded
2 Oct 23:33:12 - [debug] [server:Home Assistant] Services Loaded
2 Oct 23:33:12 - [debug] [server:Home Assistant] HA State: running
2 Oct 23:33:12 - [debug] [server:Home Assistant] Integration: notloaded
2 Oct 23:33:12 - [red] Uncaught Exception:
2 Oct 23:33:12 - [error] UnhandledPromiseRejection: This error originated either by throwing inside of an async function without a catch block, or by rejecting a promise which was not handled with .catch(). The promise rejected with the reason "#<Object>".

Steps to reproduce

I am pretty sure my HA components are not at the current version. Which might cause this issue. Is there anyway to check the component version without the node red gui?

[sinclairpaul]

The full log would likely be helpful, however you can try starting with the safe mode option set:

https://github.com/hassio-addons/addon-node-red/blob/main/node-red/DOCS.md#option-safe_mode

[crasu]

Just confirmed 18.0.5 still works

[crasu]

Still breaks with updated HA components with 18.1.1

Then looking at the changes, it most likely is with the node-red-contrib-home-assistant-websocket which the addon wraps.

After updating to 18.1.1 from 18.0.5 - Node-Red won't connect to my MQTT Server. When I go back to 18.0.5 everything connects and works. Is the problem on my end? Can anyone help?

[Marcos-kp]

Some have the same problem #1964

[Dodoooh]

i have also noticed a very strange behavior, the flows still work, but an inject, for example, can no longer be clicked on and all debug nodes are “grayed out”.

so it is no longer possible to test or do anything smart with it, I have now restored the backup back to 18.0.5 here everything still works.

There hasn't been any activity on this issue recently, so we clean up some of the older and inactive issues. Please make sure to update to the latest version and check if that solves the issue. Let us know if that works for you by leaving a comment 👍 This issue has now been marked as stale and will be closed if no further activity occurs. Thanks!

[kernel610]

This is not stale. It sounds like the 0.74.0 release of the websocket fixed the issue according to this post but that is not included in the current Node Red add-on release.
