@flynn1973 thanks for the issue. I'm trying to repro but I don't have a redhat EL 7.7 system to test on but i tried on my mac with the latest go and had no issues. I see this issue for go-systemd: coreos/go-systemd#321 (comment)

which it looks like that's what we do in our go.mod file.

I'll leave this open in case someone from the community can pitch in.

i forgot to mention that i run on ppc64le architecture, just in case this could be problematic.

[flynn1973]

after cleaning up my node env a little bit this error is gone...but now i get node-gyp rebuild errors...

issue for node-gyp
nodejs/node-gyp#2045

[russorat]

@flynn1973 so reading through the node-gyp issue, looks like the problem is with deasync? Is that coming from an outdated requirement we have?

[flynn1973]

seems so, i emptyed out ui/yarn.lock and let it generate itself...than the build went through without any errors. could be that my node is to new to. (12 LTS)

[hoorayimhelping]

could be that my node is to new to. (12 LTS)

@flynn1973 yep, an error like this is indicative of a node version mismatch. chronograf 1.x targets Node 10.13.0 LTS. Changing your node version either by using nvm or (my personal preference, one of the most poorly named libraries ever) n to 10.13.0 then re-running make should fix this.

I'll add something to the readme to explain this.

[flynn1973]

this "n" thing is quite amazing, simple and very helpfull, works perfectly on ppc64le also.

root@lpgaixmgmtlx01:/scratch/n>n 10.19.0

  installing : node-v10.19.0
       mkdir : /scratch/n/n/versions/node/10.19.0
       fetch : https://nodejs.org/dist/v10.19.0/node-v10.19.0-linux-ppc64le.tar.xz
   installed : v10.19.0 to /scratch/n/bin/node
      active : v12.15.0 at /scratch/node/bin/node

@flynn1973 glad we figured this out. thanks!
