Having problems installing Gekko - z82 - 01-18-2018

Hi,

I'm a new user and not very good with Linux.  I cannot get Gekko to run properly and receive an error when I try to run it:

/home/john/gekko/core/error.js:3
let RetryError = function(message) {
^^^

SyntaxError: Block-scoped declarations (let, const, function, class) not yet supported outside strict mode

Here are my system details:

64bit OS
16.04 LTS Ubuntu
Intel Core I5

My objective is to run it on a laptop and interact with it via my browser.

I tried following the instructions yesterday here:

https://gekko.wizb.it/docs/installation/installing_gekko.html

It was late at night and I might have installed nodejs after installing Gekko.  Will Gekko configure properly if nodejs is not present at install?  If Gekko is not configured properly, how do I start over? 

I also tried installing Gekko using Docker and no luck there either.   Since I couldn't get it to do anything, I uninstalled Docker.

Could you post the output of running `node -v`?

Hello,

Gekko encountered an error and can't continue

Error:

History directory does not exist.

Thanks!
