I hit this exact error message today trying to start the language server from 16.04.

[skovhus]

Can you do a node -v?

[skovhus]

@bigxu @aparks5

Can you send us your node version (node -v)?

[aparks5]

Skovhus, I will get back to you Monday when I'm at my work machine with this, apologies for the lapse in response

[aparks5]

@skovhus managed to find some time to ssh in:

:~$ npm -v
3.5.2
:~$ node -v
v4.2.6

[skovhus]

We have just released a new version of bash-language-server (1.6.0) that:

• supports node > 8 (including 12)
• should remove all installation issues caused by node-gyp and native bindings

To upgrade run:

npm i -g bash-language-server

Let us know if this works for you. Thanks :)
