Apollo-server tutorial from GraphQL website produce error

I can't get this tutorial to work (running on Ubuntu v19.04):
https://www.apollographql.com/docs/apollo-server/getting-started/
My code is literally copy+pasted from the tutorial - I have installed all dependencies, and I keep getting the following error when running node index.js:
internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:628
throw e;

This is literally so frustrating, because the only place to get any help with apollo-server is from a Spectrum chat that keeps disconnecting, and doesn't even allow me to create any posts...
Why is this library the official supported and recommended library for GraphQL? And how come I seem to be the only person in the world having this issue, I can't find anyone else asking about this...

It seems it's a problem with the current Apollo Server version.
Try downgrading to 2.6.3, this worked for me. Haven't tried with any other version though.
npm install apollo-server#2.6.3

Grave (`) is marked as illegal token

I've been trying to transfer a node program I created locally to an EC2 server via Cloud9, and I have already manually replaced all of the (req,res) => {} statements because it didn't accept that. However, now it's giving me
console.log(`foo ${bar}`)

It works fine on my local server and it runs fine here too, even without nodejs.
var bar = "bar"
console.log(`foo ${bar}`)
The version of node is v13.9.0 and it was installed via nvp.
Anyone know why this is happening? I really don't want to go through and convert all the strings with `

Thanks for the help, I figured out that cloud9 automatically installs nodejs, just not the right version. It installs 10.19.0, while the current latest version is 13.10.0. I installed the latest version, but the default was still 10.19.0. For anyone else having this problem, do
nvm ls
to list your installed node versions, then use
nvm alias default 13.10.0 (replace with whatever version you want)

Apparently rn-fetch-blob is incompatible with expo. I have dealt with this very problem before with expo and rn-fetch-blob.
"It doesn't work with Expo because Expo doesn't support native module linking. Like you said you'll have to detach from Expo in order to run react-native link react-native-fetch-blob for this to work."
https://docs.expo.io/versions/latest/guides/detach.html
You will need to use XCode to get it working.
There are a couple threads discussing. No solutions with expo though.

I have been searching for a while on the internet but cannot manage to find the solution for this problem.
I am trying to run it on Linux Mint 17.2

Problem solved by downloading the Node.js sources and by recompiling it.

nodejs error undefined is not a function

I am trying to create a simple webserver using node js. This is the script that I have written.
var connect = require('connect');
connect.createServer(
connect.static("../angularjs")
).listen(5000);
I place the script in the nodejs directory and then I try to run it using the command "node server.js" and I get the following error
C:\Program Files\nodejs\server.js:4
connect.static("../angularjs")
^
TypeError: undefined is not a function

I am new to javascript and request you to kindly guide.
Thanks & Regards

your version of connect does not contain static in its propertys,
you either have to downgrade your version of connect (2.xx) or try this code snippet
var connect = require('connect'),
serveStatic = require('serve-static');
var app = connect();
app.use(serveStatic("../angularjs"));
app.listen(5000);
but before run
npm install serve-static

Because static is not the property of connect.
According to the phrase
serve-static - previously static
I think you are using a newer version of connect than the one you code is amed to.
So you have two solutions:
Use an older version of connect
Use serve-static middleware instead of the static method
