Hi, message: "[node-red-contrib-telegrambot] Node module cannot be loaded on this version. Requires: >=1.3.7 "

"TypeError: Cannot read property 'nodes' of null"

Redmatic: 7.2.1

Any idea?

windkh commented 1 year ago

What node-red version is on that ccu3?

averlon commented 1 year ago

Redmatic: 7.2.1 - thats all what I can see.

or where can I find out more details?

windkh commented 1 year ago

no idea. Maybe you ask the redmatic guys?

O.K - I found node-red = 1.2.9. Anyhow, the update of node-red-contrib-telegrambot to 15.0.1 is offered. An when I start the update it fails and telegrambot is not anymore available on the system which causes follow-up errors on all nodes and flows where telegrambot is included.

I was forced to restore the CCU3 with my latest backup - which worked - as far as I can see!

Well basically the nodes should work on older node-red versions. However since node-red introduced scorecards they published a tool that checks for compatibility. The output of this tool said that the nodes require at least 1.3.7 (don't ask me why). So I added the information as suggested. The same goes for the nodejs version. Maybe you search for a way to update the node-red version on your CCU3.

Thanks for reply! There is currently no update offered and I don't like to install versions e.g. from Github - or other not officially offered sources.

I would like to encourage you to check the version of node-red befor any part of the installation starts - how ever this can be done - so at least the currently installed version stays as is.

O.K. - the good thing is: the restore worked. Although after restore Redmatic was not installed on the CCU3 and I assumed I had lost all flows. But after reinstalling Redmatic and logging in to Node-Red on the CCU3 all flows were as I left them before the backup - good to know! I will immediately run a new backup and som export of the flows.

The current node-red version is 3.0.2 which means that the CCU3 is really outdated.

The complete installation is performed automatically by node-red, not by any of my code. So the version check that you recommended to do before damaging something is an issue you should raise in the node-red community.

I could set the node red required version to a lower one. But then the same could happen after installation.
