how to install node js 18 in amazon linux 2 AMI ?

0

Can someone please advise me on how to upgrade the gcc version when trying to install nodejs 18? Despite attempting to update to version 11, it remains stuck at version 7. Additionally, I am curious if it's possible to install yum groupinstall "Development Tools" version 10 or 11 as an alternative solution. Thank you for any assistance you can provide.

Hi,

yes, I have read the mentioned article, I also read https://github.com/nodesource/distributions, and I understand that there seems to be some dependency issue between the glibc version used in amazon linux 2 and nodejs 18.

However, such a beast exists, and is provided by amazon themselves: the nodejs 18 aws lambda runtime -- which exactly includes nodejs 18 in an amazonlinux2 image. That obviously means that there must be a way to run both of them together. Maybe AWS could share their knowledge about how to build that ...

Thanks
