spants

Heads up.... Hear from the Node Red team.... Join us for a Node-RED Tech Talk, presented by developerWorks Open, Wednesday, June 22, at 11 a.m. ET, and find out how to wire the Internet of Things together using this simple, innovative, open source tool.

Updated to v0.14.3

im going to do the same! will delete everything and rebuild just to make sure. Just deleted my 25 dockers, made sure that there were no orphans in Advanced mode... scrubbed docker.img, redownload and all are working. The only issue I have seen is that binhex-delugevpn, my mqtt, my nodered and a couple of others always say that there is an update ready even though there isn't!... Have you seen that? I'm on 6.2.0-beta23 (dvb version)

would it be possible to remove all the linuxserver ones (leave the tick box selected). When the last one has gone, add them again from my-templates (it should have all your settings still). Otherwise... I just put up a docker spants/nodered-test that you can download manually... see if that works. I think that you are on to something about the docker versions...

just done a complete rebuild with --no_cache, try again

strange, running great here. I tried a push again and nothing else was uploaded... I wonder if docker is mid update for this docker. Try removing the docker and reinstalling. I will keep an eye out whilst watching the England game

Updated NodeRed to v0.14.2....

Well done!. I will download and try it out

Thanks! I had the same problem with an ASUS mb. AUTO disables the slot it was in but GEN1 makes it work

ah. I understand. There isn't an upgrade button. As far as I know, uninstalling and reinstalling should bring down the latest version. Thats a good point though - I hope that it doesnt just use the cached version!. I will ping the author of the Admin node.

I don't think that you can for that Node.... It needs to be installed by NPM

I have updated the NodeRed docker to allow the easy updating of the Nodes to the latest versions without me updating the Docker. To do this, I removed them from the build - you can reinstall them in the Admin tab (top right). Your flows will need you to re add the missing nodes that are used. The affected Nodes are: node-red-contrib-ibmpush node-red-contrib-googlechart node-red-contrib-nest node-red-contrib-splitter json-db-node-red node-red-contrib-freeboard node-red-contrib-sunevents node-red-node-badwords node-red-node-exif node-red-node-geofence node-red-node-mysql node-red-node-ping node-red-node-wol node-red-node-web-nodes node-red-node-base64 node-red-node-geohash node-red-node-twilio node-red-node-pushbullet node-red-node-aws node-red-contrib-ibm-watson-iot node-red-contrib-timeseries node-red-node-emoncms node-red-contrib-hue node-red-contrib-blynk node-red-contrib-pebble-watch node-red-node-twitter node-red-contrib-graphs node-red-contrib-influxdb node-red-contrib-bigtimer node-red-contrib-firebase node-red-contrib-ui node-red-contrib-admin node-red-node-smooth node-red-contrib-scx-ibmiotapp node-red-contrib-json node-red-contrib-eibd

I've just totally rebuilt the MQTT docker to use Alpine Linux 3.3 - which is the version of Linux favoured by the Docker team. I have removed all the fancy Nobody/User settings as the have caused problems to me when I wanted to use the same docker on my mac. The issue will be is that to edit the settings on first use - defaults are created - you may need to run a NEWPERMS on the data directory. If you already have run the older version, it can use the settings but there is an updated EXAMPLE file that might be a better base: it shows the connects in the log window but doesnt create a huge logfile. For non mnt/user/ this may work better for you. *** Please let me know if it works or breaks something!!! *** (Note: that you will need the 1st May version - not the April)

Yes, thanks! I think that it is because you are using the /mnt/ and not /mnt/user/ hierarchy ..... I tested with the data on the protected raid and not on a cache drive. I will try and look at this over the weekend. Can I check that you really want to have your data stored in this way?. If you create a share that is only on one disk then it is that disk and parity that will be spinning. There is not a lot of energy difference and the strain on a disk is when it is starting up.

solved - its a problem with Chrome! Firefox seems to work (adblock maybe?) the real vnc wasnt working

ah ok. vt-d is enabled in the bios.... It must be something else that is causing those errors. I'm on 6.2.0-beta21 Interestingly: http://ark.intel.com/products/52214/Intel-Core-i7-2600K-Processor-8M-Cache-up-to-3_80-GHz says that my processor doesnt have vt-d!

There is no option to enable iommu in the bios that I can see. HVM is enabled though. Is IOMMU a requirement for VMs?

I have been using and writing a lot of Docker images and thought that I would take a look at VMs. However, none will start: LC_ALL=C PATH=/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin HOME=/ QEMU_AUDIO_DRV=none /usr/local/sbin/qemu -name 'Windows 7' -S -machine pc-i440fx-2.5,accel=kvm,usb=off,mem-merge=off -cpu host,hv_time,hv_relaxed,hv_vapic,hv_spinlocks=0x1fff,hv_vendor_id=none -m 2048 -realtime mlock=off -smp 2,sockets=1,cores=1,threads=2 -uuid e8e3ee70-eaa9-e1cd-68e6-14c24d766113 -no-user-config -nodefaults -chardev 'socket,id=charmonitor,path=/var/lib/libvirt/qemu/domain-Windows 7/monitor.sock,server,nowait' -mon chardev=charmonitor,id=monitor,mode=control -rtc base=localtime -no-hpet -no-shutdown -boot strict=on -device ich9-usb-ehci1,id=usb,bus=pci.0,addr=0x7.0x7 -device ich9-usb-uhci1,masterbus=usb.0,firstport=0,bus=pci.0,multifunction=on,addr=0x7 -device ich9-usb-uhci2,masterbus=usb.0,firstport=2,bus=pci.0,addr=0x7.0x1 -device ich9-usb-uhci3,masterbus=usb.0,firstport=4,bus=pci.0,addr=0x7.0x2 -device virtio-serial-pci,id=virtio-serial0,bus=pci.0,addr=0x4 -drive 'file=/mnt/cache/.keep/vm/Windows 7/v-device qxl-vga,id=video0,ram_size=67108864,vram_size=67108864,vgamem_mb=16,bus=pci.0,addr=0x2 -device virtio-balloon-pci,id=balloon0,bus=pci.0,addr=0x6 -msg timestamp=on Domain id=2 is tainted: high-privileges Domain id=2 is tainted: host-cpu char device redirected to /dev/pts/0 (label charserial0) I have tried selecting other CPU cores etc. This seems to be the problem: Domain id=2 is tainted: high-privileges Domain id=2 is tainted: host-cpu argggg: I guess I need IOMMU capability?.

MQTT docker updated/re-written to Mosquitto 1.4.8 + websockets. I found that the Home-Assistant docker wouldn't work with the old MQTT docker - the new update works! (I think it was the old version of Mosquitto that had problems)

the mqtt client seems borked - it doesn't work with external mqtt server either.

You can add the node-red-node-pushover node via the admin tab and it should persist between updates...... edit the node-red-contrib by using backspace. (is this how you are doing it?.... make sure that you are also pointing /data to a directory on your drives - in my case /mnt/user/docker/appdata/nodered so that the flows and additions persist)

that is not my version :-) I will upload my templates to github later today.

K, thanks for trying that. Personally I would create a docker appdata directory and store the files on the protected disks. I would hate to lose the configs for my 17 dockers!. The downside is that one disk stays spinning... the wear and tear is not much (better than sleeping/restarting) but it uses a slight amount of energy. I will try and nail this issue down a bit but I have a busy weekend coming up!. I wonder if the linuxserver.io sonar/plex have this issue... will try (btw - the client error that you have, does the client have an id and have you disabled anon in the config fiel if you are not using a password)

I agree - it looks like permissions. Have you tried stopping mqtt and doing a newperms on that mqtt data folder? Are you using the linuxserver.io versions of those dockers? My mqtt is based on linuxserver/baseimage so it should behave the same way. If you have your docker data share on one disk, only that one will spin up but your data is protected if you have a disk fault.

Maybe it is because my data is stored on the protected unraid volumes /mnt/user/docker/appdata and yours is stored on the unprotected cache drive?. Why do you store your docker data there? - apart from it is faster :-)
