hb-config util has the menu to option to update node and that's what I've always done. Presumably it runs the commands you mention as a script though so can give that a go.

EDIT: Just checked and hb-shell isn't available on the Raspbian image. everything is managed through the UI for Homebridge and terminal for node.js and a few advanced functions.

sudo hb-sevrice update-node did work though and notably had the right target URL for the download with '...arm7l..'

[Quickstep3]

NB this is happening with the Node.js 22.12 update as well. Workaround is to use
sudo hb-service update-node
rather than the hb-config terminal application

Still happening with latest update to Node.js 22.13
Issue is the download path being incorrect.
Will presumably be more of a problem with Homebridge v5 due soon and recommendation in that to use 18,20, or 22

[NorthernMan54]

What model RPI do you have and what version of the Homebridge UI?

[Quickstep3]

RPI v4
Homebridge 1.8.5
Homebridge UI v4.68.0

[NorthernMan54]

I think I missed in issue is that this is related to the ‘hb-config’ command.

Is that correct?

[Quickstep3]

yes - I think it is given that hb-service can be used as a workaround

[NorthernMan54]

Perfect, that is part of the raspbian image, let me move it over there
