Research direction
The issue does not identify a repository file, test, or entry point. Start with the reported Node.js v6.10.2 environment and the ES6 syntax error; done would require a maintainer-confirmed resolution for running the software on the old server.

Description
I am installing a new piece of software on an old server.
The new software uses features of ES6. Some of it in my software, other bits in packages it uses.
I'm getting this error when I run the app:
SyntaxError: Use of const in strict mode.
All indications are this is a version error, I'm using an old version of Node.
Running node -v at the command line returns v6.10.2.
Current version according to https://nodejs.org/en/ is 8.9.4 LTS.
I've searched and tried everything to get Node to upgrade to the latest version, but this is where I am stuck. Any help much appreciated.
