problem with npm install about dasher HOT 7 OPEN

@mgobill Your node and npm are extremely old, try updating them.

Here's how you can update npm

sudo npm install -g npm

from dasher.

I got the same error. i did the update and now when I try to do npm isntall within dasher I get:
pi@raspberrypi:~/dasher $ npm install
/usr/bin/env: node: No such file or directory

How do I fix this?

from dasher.

thanks for the replies! i think @legotheboss was right. i tried to update npm, ended up reinstalling it.

now when i run
npm install
it seems to work. afterwards though, when i run
sudo npm run start
i get
