I was trying to install mysql for npm with the comand npm install mysql, then I receive this error message:
npm WARN npm npm does not support Node.js v10.15.2 npm WARN npm You should probably upgrade to a newer version of node as we npm WARN npm can't make any promises that npm will work with this version. npm WARN npm Supported releases of Node.js are the latest release of 4, 6, 7, 8, 9. npm WARN npm You can find the latest version at npm WARN using --force I sure hope you know what you are doing. My version of node.js is 10.15.2 and the version of npm is 5.8.0. I think the problem is that they are not compatible. I was trying to update node, but I didn't succed in it. Solutions?
I have switched to a newer version of nodejs, the twelve one, with this code:
curl -sL | sudo -E bash - sudo apt-get install -y nodejs The problem is that I still can't download mysql for npm. The message is:
npm WARN saveError ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '/home/dario/package.json' npm WARN enoent ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '/home/dario/package.json' npm WARN dario No description npm WARN dario No repository field. npm WARN dario No README data npm WARN dario No license field. + mysql@2.17.1 updated 1 package and audited 32 packages in 1.447s found 0 vulnerabilities 2 Answers
Well i face the same problem today after install ubuntu 19.10. and i solve this by updating npm using below command

Hope it will help
1You can install the latest LTS Node.js on Ubuntu using the following command:
curl -fsSL | sudo -E bash - This method is indicated in the official documentation.
If you need many versions of nodejs at the same time Recommend using nvm (git nvm) install
curl -o- | bash Example of use
install 16 node
nvm install 16 list of installed
nvm ls Selection of the version you need at the moment
nvm use 16 This way you can easily change the version. For compatibility with project packages.
