NodeRed crashing every morning at exactly 3AM

[knissdesign]

Problem/Motivation

NodeRed Addon crashes every morning at 3am. No flows seem to be executing at the time. I believe this routine crash started with updating to 13.3.1.

Expected behavior

NodeRed NOT crashing and continuing on it's merry way.

Actual behavior

NodeRed crashes at exactly 3am every morning. I have turned watchdog off in an effort to preserve logs until I can access them when I wake up, but even with watchdog on the add-on will NOT successfully restart; I have to manually start the add-on when I wake up regardless of whether watchdog is on or not. Everything else handled by node-red seems to be functioning just fine.

Steps to reproduce

Home Assistant on RasPi4, Hass Home Assistant Core 2022.8.5 Home Assistant Supervisor 2022.08.3 Home Assistant Operating System 8.4 NodeRed Add-On V13.3.1

Same problem... have tried several restarts of Node Red and HA, without positive effect. NodeRed runs unstable

Add-on version: 13.3.1 System: Home Assistant OS 8.4 (aarch64 / raspberrypi4-64) Home Assistant Core: 2022.8.6 Home Assistant Supervisor: 2022.08.3

@knissdesign Can you post your configuration and extra packages? ssh2-streams is not included in the default installation.

[tjorim]

@quito96 Might be an issue with your flows? What error do you get and post your config as well please.

[quito96]

@tjorim I don't think so. The flows run without change for more than a year. Sporadic crashes of Node Red came with Addon Vers 13.3.1 and Core: 2022.8.6 Sometimes it ran 30 minutes times 4 hrs at a stretch. Then it crashed without rebooting. System restarts did not help. Only NodeRed crashed……..

Now with HA 2022.8.7 NodeRed runs stable again. Actual: Home Assistant 2022.8.7 Supervisor 2022.08.3
