Worked on a workflow, everything working fine, then i had to reinstall the docker image from start and import the json workflow again.
Even after installing the latest version of n8n, many nodes, including Gemini and Puppeteer, are not visible, even if installed via “Community nodes.” Even basic nodes like the Form trigger are unrecognized. My exported working flow shows for example unrecognized trigger form node at version 2.3, while newly added node show version 2. It seems workflows were created in a version that had updated nodes, which are now not compatible with n8n 1.110.1.

This is a node i added yesterday:
{
"parameters": {},
"type": "n8n-nodes-base.formTrigger",
"typeVersion": 2.3,
"position": [
352,
-32
],
"id": "172d955e-4add-4dee-aadb-5e4ea8f5bcfb",
"name": "On form submission",
"webhook
Id": "98057bbb-13a2-40d9-81b5-4bbd83be4354"
}
Then i messed up stuff on docker and decided to start fresh, now the same working node it’s not being recognized anymore, can’t find gemini in the node list and can’t see puppeteer node after installing it anymore
If i add the same node now it’s like this
{
"parameters": {
"path": "8d213ec6-cca4-4d1a-8ff7-0d0e4f9f9f89",
"formFields": {
"values": [
{}
]
},
"options": {}
},
"type": "n8n-nodes-base.formTrigger",
"typeVersion": 2,
"position": [
352,
128
],
"id": "5fdb9eed-e850-440a-807a-00483d296f49",
"name": "n8n Form Trigger",
"webhookId": "8d213ec6-cca4-4d1a-8ff7-0d0e4f9f9f89"
}
this is the same for basically all the nodes except gmail send, there’s something with typeVersion, i guess…
to be clear: everything was working fine yesterday, zero problems
