I'm getting the following error when trying to use ExecJS:
execjs.RuntimeUnavailable: Node.js (V8) runtime is not available on this system
I have node.js installed on my machine (Ubuntu 14.04). Which Node
outputs /usr/bin/node
Any ideas?

Have you seen this similar issue
They resolve the problem by linking node under /usr/local/bin/node
ln -s /usr/local/bin/node /usr/bin/node
Hello I've had the same issue before and this solved it:
Node.js not found by Rails / execjs
When you are trying to use ExecJS, what user are you trying to run as? the ENV path for node may be not be available to the account which is trying to execute the ExecJS. May be this could be a dumb idea but have you tried re-installing nodejs?
sudo apt-get install nodejs
To get some insight what's happening, you might want to try "strace yourapp" (system call tracer), or strace -p $PID , (-f helps following forks) then grep the output for node. You will see what it was trying to open/start before throwing the error.
That way you will have something to look for in configuration or environment, that must be changed to the path your node could really be found.
Make sure you really have file /usr/bin/node
. If it is a symlink, make sure the target is exists and valid.
I know that which node
gave you the result but just make sure it's same in the python's environtment.
print os.environ.get('PATH', '')
And make sure your /usr/bin/node
is executable by current user.
$ node --version
