When i only enter that...
wget -O /tmp/download https://gist.github.com/Belphemur/3f6d3bf211b0e8a18d93/download && sudo tar -zxf /tmp/download --strip-components 1 -C /etc/systemd/system/
..i get that error at the end:
gzip: stdin has more than one entry--rest ignored
tar: Child returned status 2
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
Why that?
Problem is HERE:
root@debian-influx:~/.node-red# tar -zxf /tmp/download --strip-components 1 -C /etc/systemd/system/gzip: stdin has more than one entry--rest ignored
tar: Child returned status 2
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
The /tmp/download is a zip file, not a gzip file. On my Ubuntu system
sudo apt install unzip
wget -O /tmp/download https://gist.github.com/Belphemur/3f6d3bf211b0e8a18d93/download
unzip /tmp/download
Now edit the 3f6d3bf211b0e8a18d93-master/Node-RED.service file and make any changes you like as per the prior posts here.
To Add to this script, running node-red as root is a bad idea, don´t do that
@papaiatis Assuming you User and Group to a non root user (for example the pi user) there is no reason to set the -u flag
