Hey @mohsenkashi, it looks like it’s getting hung up on the now very redundant launchpad repo that these distributions replace. It doesn’t exist so it’s failing on a simple apt-get update right at the begining of the script.

Try running these two commands to fully remove the old repo:

sudo add-apt-repository -y -r ppa:chris-lea/node.js
sudo rm -f /etc/apt/sources.list.d/chris-lea-node_js-*.list

Then run the setup script again and cross your fingers. Let us know how you get on.

@zave, using one of the installers (like https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_6.x) you must not have PPA repository added (ppa:chris-lea/node.js).
