n8n - 💡(How to fix) Fix Wait Node doesn't work, the log said 'n8n-1 | dbTime.getTime is not a function' [1 comments, 2 participants]

Describe the problem/error/question

What is the error message (if any)?

• error: all

TL;DR

The Wait Node issue is likely due to an incompatibility with the dbTime.getTime function, which may be related to the Node.js version or database configuration.

Guidance

• Verify the compatibility of the dbTime.getTime function with the current Node.js version (24.14.1) and Postgres database configuration.
• Check the n8n documentation and community forums for known issues or workarounds related to the Wait Node and dbTime.getTime function.
• Review the Postgres database configuration to ensure it is properly set up and compatible with the n8n version (2.16.1).
• Consider testing the Wait Node with a different database configuration or a different Node.js version to isolate the issue.

Notes

The issue may be specific to the combination of n8n version, Node.js version, and Postgres database configuration. Further investigation and testing are needed to determine the root cause.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Try updating the n8n version or modifying the database configuration to resolve the compatibility issue, as the current combination may not be supported.
