Upgrade from v0.10.0 to 0.17.0 causes Node & Signal K failure
#1
I thank you in advance for any assistance you can provide me. 

Raspberry Pi 3 with NMEA 0183 data present on UART input

I installed v0.10.0 NOOBS from the Sailoog.com website and had all working nicely with a multiplexed NMEA 0183 output and a SignalK server running also. I was prompted by the Openplotter GUI to update to ver 0.17.0 and did so using the gui. After the update had finished all seemed well except that I could not see any SignalK data out using its test URL http://localhost:3000/ just an error message...

Quote:This site can’t be reached
localhost refused to connect.
Try: ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED

NOTE: This all worked fine before the upgrade.

I also note that when attempting to look at the NODE-RED config page http://localhost:1880/# the messages below are displayed ,and in the flow diagram.. "unknown: freeboard" is shown in a dashed box.
Quote:Imported unrecognised type:
  • freeboard

Flows stopped due to missing node types. Check logs for details.

Below is the output from the openplotter command...
 
Code:
pi@openplotter:~ $ openplotter

A number of forums have referred to the upgrade log files but alas I don't know where to find them. As I am a relative newbie to Linux and the Pi I would be extremely grateful if anyone could shed any light on this problem and perhaps give me some step by step instructions on how to fix this.

Many thanks
Dean.

I have seen this bug before and we solved it but I can not remember how Sad

what happens if you disable the UART input?

Update to 0.17.1 in case something went wrong with the last update
