Hi, team

As I installed node package on AIX server, and it gave me message that node was installed completely.

But, when I give command "node -version", it shows me below message. Could you please help me on it? Thanks!

Seems to be a compatibility issue in libstdc++ library. This symbol is not there in the libstdc++ 6.3.0-1 version

May be the node has to be rebuilt with this version of libstdc++.

Thank for your reply so quickly.

And may I know how to rebuild the node?

As after I install libstdc++ , I reinstalled node, and it was completed smoothly without any warning and error message.

Thanks,

But it(https://nodejs.org/en/download/) seems to be Official website, do you know it could be used in IBM Internal use. or  there is other installation package resource?

And our sever is AIX7.1-64bit, could you please help which version node is the right choice?Thanks in advance!

You can very well use the one from the official site. 

Take LTS version of AIX 64bit node --> ( https://nodejs.org/dist/v10.15.0/node-v10.15.0-aix-ppc64.tar.gz )

I see a build issue with this package. But you can workaround it by setting LIBPATH="/opt/freeware/lib:/usr/lib:/lib". 

A defect has been raised for this and fixed in the current branch --> https://github.com/nodejs/node/issues/25444 

From next release onwards we don't see this issue.

Thanks,

I have installed node successfully, the problem is caused by the version libgcc and libstdc++, it should be 4.8.1 version both of libgcc and lbstdc++.
