Installing node with brew fails on Mac OS Sierra

Question

I\'m trying to install node with homebrew on macOS Sierra. I run

 brew install node

After a seemingly successful install I get the following

Answer 1

None of the above worked for me. I'm using High Sierra.

What fixed it for me was brew upgrade

Answer 2

Nothing worked for me but running this worked

brew link --overwrite node

Answer 3

This error was given to me after migrating machines.

Even though everything was installed, when I went to check node -v or npm version, I'd get this error.

What fixed it was brew reinstall icu4c.

Answer 4

I removed export PATH="/usr/local/opt/icu4c/bin:$PATH" from my ~/.bash_profile file and it fixed my problem.

My error was:

dyld: Library not loaded: /usr/local/opt/icu4c/lib/libicui18n.63.dylib
  Referenced from: /usr/local/opt/node@10/bin/node
  Reason: image not found
Abort trap: 6

My /usr/local/opt/icu4c/lib contains libicui18n.64.dylib

Answer 5

First I uninstall node and icu4c, force to uninstall all versions

brew uninstall --force --ignore-dependencies node icu4c

After install version 8 of Node

brew install node@8

If it already install, please just upgrade

brew upgrade node@8

And enter

node -v

v8.11.1

Answer 6

it seems like your icu4u Reference path is not set properly

first check you might instal icu4c or not by putting below comment in comment promt

brew info icu4c

or else reinstall

brew reinstall icu4c

If you need to have this software first in your PATH run:

echo 'export PATH="/usr/local/opt/icu4c/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.bash_profile

hope This might help !!!!!
