You're trying to start the bot using the node package manager... that is not what you want.
node file.js is what you need to run to start a node process.
I'd highly recommend you take a look at the difference because it will get you so far in the world of development

Run node -v and tell me what it gives you

from cross-server-bot.

V.2.4.6 is the only output

from cross-server-bot.

You're on a very old version of node.

from cross-server-bot.

There's been up to 10 major updates to node compared to the version you're using

from cross-server-bot.

Yeah this issue is in no way related to this project but with your node / ubuntu install.
I am closing this now, we continued to take care of this in our support server anyway.
