Answer 1

Just install older version of Nodejs with nodebrew.

curl -L git.io/nodebrew | perl - setup

Add the following to ~/.bashrc

export PATH=$HOME/.nodebrew/current/bin:$PATH

Refresh console

source ~/.bashrc

Install older version

nodebrew install-binary v0.12.7
nodebrew use v0.12.7

Then try again!

Failed at the node-sass@0.9.6 install script 'node build.js'

Answer 2

It looks like this version is no longer compatible. I get the same errors on my system. Either you need to downgrade node to the supported version, or upgrade the dependencies that require node-sass@0.9.6 .

Latest version of node-sass is 3.4.2.

Answer 3

In case someone runs into trouble with nodebrew, it's also possible to use nvm (node version manager) to downgrade your node version. Project on Github

On OSX El Capitan, I needed this for the installation:

curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/creationix/nvm/v0.31.0/install.sh | bash
. ~/.nvm/nvm.sh

Mind the last line, as it's slightly different from the install instruction on github.

As mentioned by Yosuke Sato, v0.12.7 is compatible with node-sass@0.9.6, so you'd need

nvm install v0.12.7 or nvm use v0.12.7 (if you have it installed already)

This will use the older node version, but only in the current terminal window/tab .

Answer 4

nvm use v0.12.7 in the project directory followed by npm install solved the problem for me -- the error occurred as I was trying to set up broccoli-taco, a static site generator. Thanks for tip, I am glad I googled you up.
