Nodered does not start after offline installation?
Hello,
I have just installed in offline mode the Nodered App and restarted the AXC 2152.
After that I set the app in running state from the Web with the Start Botton.
It seems to be running, but I can not get into the dashboard when I enter :1880 in the web browser.
Should I configure anything else?
Thanks
Angel

Hi Angel,
It looks like you have installed the Node.js app ... but there are several more steps required to install Node-Red, which is a package that runs on the Node.js framework.
The procedure that seems to work for most people is described by Dan Moeller, here:

... however since the AXC F 2152 now supports OCI containers, the Node-Red gurus in the Community are recommending containerised solutions as an alternative. See the two most recent articles in the Makers Blog, here:

Hope this helps.

Hola Angel,
I agree with Martin. Please try to install Balena Engine and then the node-red image on the controller. This is very easy, the installation is very fast and you have the latest version of node.js and node-red.
The node.js app from the store has not been updated for quite some time. Just have a look in the last two posts on the makers blog.
Hola Stefan, Martin,
@Martin,
yes you are right I have realized I've still not installed Nodered but Nodejs.
@Stefan,
I'm going to try, first time with containers... lets see! :O)
Thanks
