    I have copied and pasted every command from the tutorial on installing rocket.chat...to be honest, if the trouble i am having installing it is indicative of the quality of the program i wonder if i am not wasting my time...its bloody terrible.

    1. the rocket.chat download file gets a gzip error (saying its not a gzip file)...i found the solution for that off stack exchange, however, now i am striking a new problem at the 11th hour of the installation.

    2. syntaxError: Unexpected Token
    root@server1:/var/www/Rocket.Chat# node main.js
    /var/www/Rocket.Chat/programs/server/boot.js:58
    const { pause } = require("./debug.js");
    ^

    SyntaxError: Unexpected token {
    at exports.runInThisContext (vm.js:53:16)
    at Module._compile (module.js:373:25)

    I have tried 3 different tutorials for this and every single one of them has failed (Vultr, Rocket.chat, and now howtoforge)

    what does the above error mean and how do i fix it?
