Was asked to upgrade to 2.0.0, now "command run not found"...

[mschiffm]

Hello, I was happily load testing on an Ubuntu EC2 node (Linux ip-10-0-101-184 5.8.0-1041-aws #43~20.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Thu Jul 15 11:07:29 UTC 2021 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux) when today I was prompted with:

   ╭──────────────────────────────────────────────────────╮
   │                                                      │
   │     Good news! An update for artillery is available. │
   │   (current version: v1.7.7 → new version: v2.0.0-dev9)│
   │                                                      │
   │      Run npm install -g artillery@latest to upgrade  │
   │                                                      │
   ╰──────────────────────────────────────────────────────╯

So I did as I was told...

And now:

$ artillery run test.yaml

No amount of trying to upgrade oclif nor uninstall/reinstall helped.

npm info:

$ npm version
{ npm: '6.14.4',
  ares: '1.15.0',
  brotli: '1.0.7',
  cldr: '36.1',
  http_parser: '2.9.3',

  unicode: '13.0',
  uv: '1.34.2',
  v8: '6.8.275.32-node.55',
  zlib: '1.2.11' }

What gives? :)

hi @mschiffm 👋 Artillery v2 makes use of several modern Javascript features that are only available in Node.js 12 or newer. Upgrading Node should make everything work, but if that's not an option, you should be able to roll back to Artillery v1.7.7.

Thank you, solved.
