Ubuntu Server 15.10 - SyntaxError: Use of const in strict mode. #88

Open ecchi opened 8 years ago

ecchi commented 8 years ago

Followed directions for installing on ubuntu. Obviously my fault for using unsupported 15.10 version, but thought it might be of some importance. Mainly did the test, to see if my problems on Mac were unique to my account or not, or if it was the OS. Will attempt LTS another day. Its late here.

I should update those instructions as I didn't write those, but I would suggest to use nvm and install a newer version of nodejs.

I am also having the same issues with the latest version of node.js (5.0.0)

As of today, what version are you coding against?

(Edit: there was a conflict of node.js versions on the system and it was picking the wrong one. Now using v5.0.0 as installed by nvm instead of the previous instructions to use a PPA and apt-get. Also, edited the instructions as it has been a LONG time since I wrote them and things have changed.)
