Hi my S.O es AIX 7.1, is the same solution?

[NxtChg]

Any updates on this?

I got this error on my Ubuntu 16.4 with nodejs (v4.2.6) and (3.5.2)

install the nodejs-legacy fixed the problem for me:
sudo apt install nodejs-legacy

[dragosdydy]

sudo apt install nodejs-legacy

This solution worked for me too in Ubuntu 16.04.3 x64
Thank you.

If you have root but have to use an ancient node, how about using https://nixos.org/nix/ instead? You can control the node versions and all the dependencies, they get installed under /nix and do not interfere with the rest of the system.

Would you be able to try with the latest version - v5.0.3? 🙂
