Chapter 9. Pkg Application - Nodejs Result App issue. Won't start. Outdated Nodejs.

Hello, I am having trouble making a docker image for Nodejs result app.

For starters, Nodejs 8.16 is not officially supported.

For this reason,** npm test **fails.

I used Node12 and made an image and npm test succeeds now.

However, npm start /app fails with the error below.

Can someone help me, please? Is it a code vs. Nodejs version problem?

Thanks - Nick
