Yarn install error with latest XO github update

[phaze75]

Hi,

I just ran the XO github update (Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS (GNU/Linux 5.4.0-72-generic x86_64)) as always, but after updating, yarn runs into following error. See below. Any advice on how to resolve this?

Hi @phaze75

What do you mean you "just ran the XO github update" exactly?

Please read our installation doc carefully, the error message is pretty explicit

You have a missing per-requisite:
https://xen-orchestra.com/docs/installation.html#packages-and-pre-requisites

See:

The engine "node" is incompatible with this module. Expected version ">=14.6". Got "10.19.0"

Hi Olivier,

Well, I had a smoothly running XO v5.57, that I wanted to update to v5.58 as described in the documentation. I followed the steps exactly as shown below.

I had successfully updated my XO already several times before today, following the exact same procedure. So now I am surprised that it ran into an error.

Just for the record: before that I had installed all pending Ubuntu updates. That's it.

@olivierlambert said in Yarn install error with latest XO github update:

I installed node v14.6 and now it works. Thanks for pointing it out to me.

You are welcome Never miss the per-requisites

For the installation of the correct node version for some major Linux distributions please follow the installation instructions in this readme:

The Ubuntu section worked for me.
