I have a hose connected to drain on a constant basis. The red light indicating the bucket of full is on and this stops the unit from working. I emptied the bucket and replugged the unit in and reconnected the draining hose. After turning the unit on for 5 seconds the red 'bucket full light' goes on and the unit stops.

Your bucket full switch may be defective. If you are capable, bypass it since you are draining to another place other than the bucket.

I raised mine up on a platform about 6 inches, and now mine works fine. Don't know why this is necessary, but atleast it works now.

Same problem with Goldstar model DH404EY7 -- stop code 01 on startup, bucket full light blinks (drains to floor).
Replaced the main controller board to fix it.
For my model dehumidifer the part # is 6871A20888A, and cost $77.44 (not counting shipping) from Appliance Factory Parts. The Appliance Factory Parts web site also provides parts breakdown (exploded parts diagram) diagrams and service manuals in PDF form.
SOURCE: Attached a pump to drain collected water. The
the water should still collect into the tank. the dehumidifier had a float switch that shut the unit off when the tank is full. In turn it should have a second switch, probably a float switch that turns the pump on and off so that the pump doesnt continue to run when there is no moisture in the tank
SOURCE: Hose line is no longer draining the unit, bucket fills instead
Sounds like the connector hoae came off inside the machine . Look up inside the machine where the bucket would go and you should see where the hose attaches to the condensate drain . It might have pulled off .
