I recently had nodejs v6.0.0 installed. I ran sudo apt-get remove nodejs and reinstalled the LTS version using curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_4.x | sudo -E bash - sudo apt-get install -y nodejs

After reinstalling I ran sudo rm /usr/bin/node

And re-created the symbolic link using sudo ln -sv /usr/bin/nodejs /usr/bin/node

Now running either with the --version parameter shows different versions... Thanks ahead of time for any assistance!

Are you saying that /usr/bin/nodejs --version and /usr/bin/node are showing different versions?

My first thought is to check with which APP_NAME to check that no other executable is in the path, maybe some standalone version, maybe from outside the package manager, is running instead.

Server reboot solved the issue! Should've tried this first.
