Sudo User Not Using Same Node Version

Sudo user not using same node version

run ll /usr/bin/node if this file exist, simply run rm /usr/local/bin/node from the regular user

explanation

If you'd run which node from regular user you will probably see it points to the user local bin directory

which node
/usr/local/bin/node

this means that the regular user installed another node version locally.

to let the same node version apply to all users, this command should show you usr bin (not local).

which node 
/usr/bin/node

by deleting the link from /usr/local/bin/node it will automatically start using /usr/bin/node

How to fix npm throwing error without sudo

This looks like a permissions issue in your home directory. To reclaim ownership of the .npm directory execute:

sudo chown -R $(whoami) ~/.npm

how to set specific version of node as default using n

You still need to activate the installed version, installing doesn't automatically switch to that version. Type n after doing the install and select the version you want. From that point forward, it will be the node version your system uses. You may need to use sudo n if you run into permission issues.

sudo: npm: command not found

The npm file should be in /usr/local/bin/npm. If it's not there, install node.js again with the package on their website. This worked in my case.

nvm use not working - what is setting node version to 10?

Wait a minute when you do

nvm use 15

You do it with a normal user, but when you run the code

sudo node dist/proxy.js

Who executes that is not the same user that ran nvm use 15,
The problem is that root has version 10 and normal user has version 15.

You need to sudo nvm use 15, but it is better if you run yow code without sudo
