Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/NarrativeScience-old/log.io/issues/184

I am not a nodejs expert at all, so I am not sure how this is related to log.io or socket.io, or an incompatibility of my nodejs installation.

I was running log.io-server without any problems and after a a few weeks I wanted to power it on again, however now it shows this error when I want to launch it:

tgal@pi2089:~
19:46:21 > log.io-server
/usr/local/lib/node_modules/log.io/node_modules/socket.io/lib/store.js:35
Store.prototype.__proto__ = EventEmitter.prototype;
                                        ^

TypeError: Cannot read property 'prototype' of undefined

    at Module._compile (module.js:573:32)

I guess nodejs and/or socket.io was updated during the last weeks (I am running Mac OS X 10.9). The nodejs/npm version is:

tgal@pi2089:~
19:46:37 > node -v
v8.0.0-head
tgal@pi2089:~
19:47:23 > npm --version
3.10.8

socket.io@1.5.0

Is log.io not compatible with this version, or is any compatibility issue with the latest socket.io?

Any help would be appreciated. I really love log.io and I need it ;)

I installed the latest nodejs v6 and now it works again!

This is obviously the reason why it is not running on v8:

   info  - socket.io started
(node:58548) DeprecationWarning: process.EventEmitter is deprecated. Use require('events') instead.

This should be resolved using v0.4.3
