So i figured out how to edit the nodered.service file in the terminal. Unfortunately i still have the same issue with the error message ;
Node-RED service not ready yet ... please retry ...
not sure what to do now
Here's more granular instructions that I wrote in response to another individual having the same problem. See if following these carefully still results in the same issue:

Hi Daryl, may I know are you able to save the file after you removed the Group=pi line? I am having a permission denied problem.
It does require elevated permissions to edit the file. I did the following:
- Sign into the pi command line (Via SSH or on the pi itself, whatever you're using)
- type
Code: Select all
sudo nano /lib/systemd/system/nodered.service
and hit "Enter". It may prompt you to re-enter your password.
- Find and remove the "Group=pi" line.
- CTRL+X to Save and Close. It will prompt you Y or N to save the buffer, hit Y. It will then list the file name to write, just hit "Enter" to overwrite the file with your edits.
- Reboot the pi and you should be able to use Node-Red as expected.
Let me know if that works!
