/usr/bin/env: ‘node -r esm’: No such file or directory

[sousaakira]

After installing when I try to start the application I have this message

/usr/bin/env: ‘node -r esm’: No such file or directory

my OS is Ubuntu 18.04

One way is to use the docker container. Or you can change the path from "/usr/bin/env" to place where your node is installed ("which node").

Some people are also reporting this issue here: localtunnel/server#90
Seems like running with node -r esm ./bin/server instead of npm run start works for a few cases.

replace node -r esm ./bin/server with -S node -r esm ./bin/server
