Node Manager UX and Issues

Should node-launchpad issues go here or is a separate thread a better idea?

Anyhow… pulled and built the latest with --all-features cos I’m lazy - tell me if Im wrong and should use different build parameters.

This is what I got

willie@gagarin:~/projects/maidsafe/safe_network$ ./target/release/node-launchpad  -V
node-launchpad 0.1.3-e52a1dda (2024-05-16)

Authors: MaidSafe Developers <dev@maidsafe.net>

Data directory: /home/willie/.local/share/safe/launchpad
willie@gagarin:~/projects/maidsafe/safe_network$ ./target/release/node-launchpad  
node-launchpad failed:
Error: 
   0: Failed to parse app data

Any hints?

Well apart from running it with sudo… that works, but I thought that the necessity for sudo was removed???

So I see an improved version of the TUI from last weel, pressed Ctrl+g to start nodes - allocated 40GB and I am informed 8 nodes will be started.
7 out of 8 strat OK, I highlight no 7 which is stall at “ADDED” and hit Ctrl+g to start - which killed the TUI and gave me this

willie@gagarin:~/projects/maidsafe/safe_network$ sudo !!
sudo ./target/release/node-launchpad  
[sudo] password for willie: 
node-launchpad failed:
Error: 
   0: missing field `user_mode` at line 1 column 3747
willie@gagarin:~/projects/maidsafe/safe_network$ sudo ./target/release/node-launchpad  
node-launchpad failed:

Trying to restart the TUI failed with the same message so I guess I will need to clean up the running nodes and start again.

Started again and allocated 80GB == 16nodes

Highlighting any of the nodes that failed to start and doing Ctrl+g bombs me out of the TUI and gives me a similar error as above - different line no but I started 16 nodes this time , not 8.
