Hello Scott, yes I did upgrade node to version 22
So, yeah, so the steps in the link above
ok, so I have to do the commands in the chapter "Something's wrong, I need to reinstall / reset my system" ?
Yes
You may not need to do the second, plugins section. If all your plugins are working, don’t worry about that.
1. Upgrade NodeJS to 22.x
2. Reinstall signalk-server
3. cd $SIGNALK_HOME; rm -rf node_modules; npm install
With every upgrade of core components, I pray that it will work. Unfortunately, SignalK does not pay attention to backward compatibility. Sorry, just my 2 cents.
This is out of our control, it’s nodejs
Signal K has no influence in how the nodejs team handles backwards compatibility
Thanks, can is working again
Hallo Scott, I have sometimes in the Signalk Dashboard the following error for the can0 device,. What is the reason for this message ?

I think it means something is sending malformed n2k json out
Ok Thanks
