Bluemix IoT Foundation Starter give Error: Lost connection to server -

i trying internet of things foundation starter boilerplate in bluemix. here steps following:

1. create new app using boilerplate
2. once app up, go url , see nodered home page
3. i click on button take me nodered editor
4. in browser window have iot sensor available here: https://quickstart.internetofthings.ibmcloud.com/iotsensor/ , running
5. i configure "iot app in node" address of iot sensor. have removed ":"'s , have made letters lowercase.
   6. when click deploy in nodered editor, see following error: "error: lost connection server"

after step 2 see these errors in log:

now if restart app works fine. can recreate above scenario consistently every time these steps:

1. create new app boilerplate
2. go nodered editor
3. configure iot in-node
4. deploy
5. get error
6. stop , start runtime
7. all works

need figuring out why happening , how prevent it.

thanks
