After getting pizza-luvrs up through a local host, which worked, I got an error after npm start when trying to get AWS up and running on a server. This is the error in full:

pizza-luvrs@1.0.0 start /home/ec2-user/pizza-luvrs node index.js

/home/ec2-user/pizza-luvrs/node_modules/hapi/lib/server.js:274 async inject(options) { ^^^^^^

I originally had an error at the local host level, but following a previous post I was able to reinstall pizza-luvrs and NOT use npm audit to start it up. Any ideas on how to fix this?

Hi @Airedyver! Sorry you're having trouble. The specific error is because the async keyword wasn't implemented in Node.js until version 8 and it looks like you're using version 6. That version of Node.js should be fine with all of the dependencies included, but it looks like it's dying on the hapi dependency.

So, long story short, to fix it, I think you need to downgrade your hapi version to version 13.5.3. Do this by running: npm install hapi@13.5.3. Then try running npm start and let me know what happens.

Good luck!

That worked! Thank you so much!
