I’m trying to install code-server 3.2.0 on an Ubuntu droplet and I’m following also the guide/tuto --> https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-up-the-code-server-cloud-ide-platform-on-ubuntu-18-04-fr
but after the definition of the service , when I’m trying to start the service , I have the following result
sudo systemctl status code-server.service
● code-server.service - code-server
Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/code-server.service; disabled; vendor preset: enabled)

so If I’m trying to start >> /usr/local/bin/code-server I’m receiving the following error :
/usr/local/bin/code-server: 18: exec: /usr/local/bin/node: not found
So what I need to do in order to move on ?
Many thanks
