N8N on truenas scale

Describe the problem/error/question

Hello, I recently installed N8N on my TrueNAS server using the default application repositories from TrueNAS.
The installation went smoothly, but when I try to create a new workflow and add a trigger, I receive the following error message: storewindow.crypto.randomUUID is not a function.

After searching on Google, I found some forum posts suggesting that this error occurs because the server and N8N are being accessed through HTTP instead of HTTPS. I managed to configure the server to use HTTPS, but I couldn’t do the same for N8N.

Does anyone know how to access N8N through HTTPS as well? In this standard TrueNAS installation, I couldn’t find the compose file to change the necessary configurations. If someone knows how to access or modify that, it would be very helpful.

Below are my configuration details:

  • N8N Web Host: 192.168.100.XX

  • WebUI Port:

    • Port Bind Mode: Publish port on the host for external access
  • App Version: 1.120.2

  • N8N Version: 1.6.69

  • Train: community

  • TrueNAS System Version: 25.10.0

What is the error message (if any)?

storewindow.crypto.randomUUID is not a function

Information on your n8n setup

  • n8n version: 1.6.69
  • Database (default: SQLite): Postgres 17
  • n8n EXECUTIONS_PROCESS setting (default: own, main): own
  • Running n8n via (Docker, npm, n8n cloud, desktop app): TrueNas Scale App
  • Operating system: TrueNAS System Version: 25.10.0

i think upgrading n8n will fix the issue

i have the same issues, and this is the latest version from what i understand. Also i tried rolling back and still got the same error.

I also tried deleting the image and reinstalling it, to no avali, and now i cant access the login page, i jsut get this as an error “Error connecting to n8n Could not connect to server. Refresh to try again”

Also stuck with the same “Error connecting to n8n Could not connect to server. Refresh to try again”

I got the solution.

In the settings for n8n look for this section and select the one ‘truenas_default‘ Certificate
