Cannot find module 'internal/linkedlist'

[stefanjudis]

Heyo, I just wanted to play around with this to see how it works.
Apparently I don't get it to work. :(

I've got a simple index.js.

var log = require('why-is-node-running') // should be your first require

log();

And why-is-node-running is available installed in my node_modules.

That's what I got:

stefan @ stefan-mac: ~/Downloads/test
> node --version
v5.0.0

stefan @ stefan-mac: ~/Downloads/test
> node ./index.js
module.js:339
    throw err;
    ^

Thanks.

Any hints are more than welcome.

Also been hit by this, Node.js 5.7.0.

[johshoff]

Seeing this too. Node version 5.4.0 and both why-is-node-running@1.1.2 and why-is-node-running@1.2.1

[voxpelli]

Experienced this as well on Node 5.6.0 and 5.0.0 but not on 4.2.1 – so it appears to be an incompatibility with Node 5

[voxpelli]

Probably related to nodejs/node#3078

[wesleytodd]

Anyone find a resolution for this? I can downgrade to 4 for a bit I guess, but if there is something simple we can do that would be great. Thanks!

[silverwind]

Maybe try with node --expose-internals script.js.

[wesleytodd]

Worked!! Thanks!

EDIT: worked with node 5.7.0

[nolanlawson]

Downgrading to Node 4.2.3 worked for me.

[fresheneesz]

--expose-internals works for me on node v5.1.0 - thanks! I made a pull request to document this: #15

[bojidar-bg]

Would be nice if this is done in the cli as well... 😄

[Matthew-Davey]

--expose-internals works for me on v6.3.1

[mafintosh]

would be cool if we could add that switch to the cli somehow

[megakoresh]

Yes, I would like to have this switch in the cli options too.

[sibelius]

Can somebody document how to use with node 6 or node 8?
