  • Have you checked which version of node is installed on the machine and which version your application is designed to work with? Commented Oct 25, 2018 at 14:28
  • node -v : 4.7.0, npm-v : 2.15.11 - I have installed this on the server and in package in updated that my app to run in that version only. "engines": { "node": "<=4.7.0", "npm":"<=2.15.11" }, "engineStrict": true Commented Oct 25, 2018 at 14:32

Please try to install the Node 4.x LTS version. The current LTS version is 8.12.0.

You can check this link to get supported NodeJS version https://nodejs.org/en/download/releases/

Take note that ES6 will not work in there.

I had the same problem, I followed the link https://nodejs.org/en/download/releases/ and installed Version 8x.

So far works well. If some have a higher version which is works, please share.

This worked for me on Amazon AWS Windows Server 2008 R2 DataCenter Service Pack 1, 64 bit.
@ToddKrueger which version of nodejs do you have installed?
Worked for me on Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard.
