I find a similar topic in [Unhandled rejection Error: EACCES: permission denied,](https://discourse.nodered.org/t/unhandled-rejection-error-eacces-permission-denied/9559/11).

```auto
sudo apt-get purge nodejs

```

```auto
bash <(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/node-red/raspbian-deb-package/master/resources/update-nodejs-and-nodered)

```

also no effect.

Thanks.
