Pre-installed Modbus node is not compatible and leads to crash of Node-Red #173

Open bergmanu opened 2 years ago

bergmanu commented 2 years ago

Pre-installed node-red-contrib-modbus v5.13.3 is not compatible to NodeJS 8 and Node-Red V1.x (see here). A contributer in the forum came across this and solved the issue by unstalling the node and re-install V3.6.1, which is compatible to NodeJS 8 and Node-Red V1.x (see here).

can this be solved with the (maybe) upcoming image version?

jan-kiszka commented 2 years ago

Is 3.6.1 the last supported version for NodeJS 8? Yes, we should be able to resolve that.

bergmanu commented 2 years ago

Yes, according to this list and the available releases on github, 3.6.1 is the latest release working with nodeJS 8. Using this version 3.6.1, node-red version 0.x is required. Not sure which version is planned to be integrated in the next image.

jan-kiszka commented 2 years ago

That plan is to move as much up with Node RED as its support for Node JS 8 permits.
