Installation of node red went wrong can someone advise (attaching ss and install text)

OpenRPA version: 1.5.0

Problem description

This issue is similar to NodeRed option does not appear
I have worked out how to add a new NodeRED agent, but not having seen that before, I tried adding something manually (I have appended the git text below) and I think I need to dig those extra pull files out of the installation before I create the new agent. Can any kind person advise me how to do that, step by step ? (I am really a no code person and can really only follow instructions !)

To complete the installation, do I need to uninstall the OpenRPA I had installed separately before I saw that video or do I leave it and somehow hook it up to the Docker installation I used ?

I no no idea what to do with that wall of text.
please describe the problem, show the error, and explain what you did to get tthat error ?

OK here goes.
Everything went absolutely fine, I opened up OpenFlow as you can see from the screenshot. However, instead of adding a new agent through the button on the right of the screen, which I had missed, I had seen an older topic, thought that was the right answer (i.e. pulling the NodeRED files via git), and tried it after searching for what I thought were the right files, with the command that is at lines 1/2 of the smaller section of text below. I have not yet tried installing NodeRED in what I now know is the correct way, as I am concerned that these other files below at lines 4 - 12 will, if not removed beforehand, mess up the whole installation and generate lots of error messages. In any case, there was an error message in the git file (see the last block of text below, as a result of the docker scout command), but that will be fixed if I can somehow reverse the pull for those files in lines 4 - 12 which will leave the system clean again and the I can add the NodeRED agent in the correct way. Hope that clarifies Thanks for the quick response

I really don’t understand what you are asking or trying to say here.
Are you trying to create your own images, or what is it your trying to achieve ?

I am trying to undo the last set of pulls from git so I can do a proper install of NodeRED via the add agent button as I now believe that is the right way of doing it. I am reading up on git at the moment to try to work out how to undo the bit I did in error

i tag’ed you in another post …
I think maybe you are affected by me publishing an image that breaks inside docker
I’m just pushed a new image, that should fix the issue when running in docker
