NVM and Module version mismatch

Question

I installed NVM to manage Nodejs versions. I have checked out a software which needs 0.8.18, so I installed it through NVM and used it (nvm use 0.8.18). Now, I recompiled all the modules, but I keep receiving the message Error: Module version mismatch, refusing to load..

Am I missing some steps? Thanks

How did you compile modules? I guess it's linking to different version of node. Try to set path manually to your node version — vinayr, Aug 12 '13 at 17:51
I just uninstalled and re-installed them. How can I manually set the path to the node distribution in the NVM folder? — Masiar, Aug 12 '13 at 18:23

Try this:

nvm install v0.8.18

nvm alias default v0.8.18

nvm use v0.8.18

Thanks for the shot, unfortunately that is not working either – Masiar Aug 13 '13 at 08:01
What OS are you using? And do you have more specifics from your error message? [See if this helps](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15584529/module-version-mismatch-expected-11-got-1) – Wehlematt Aug 13 '13 at 15:30
I'm running under Ubuntu 12.04 and unfortunately I have no more specific message. In the end I removed both `NVM` and `nodejs` and directly cloned the Node version I needed from git. – Masiar Aug 14 '13 at 08:11

That's the same OS I use. So you got it working correctly? I found using NVM to install Node.js was fairly simple. I would check out this [post](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/18153163/node-js-cant-install-right-on-my-ubuntu-computer/18156947#18156947) if you're going to try NVM again. – Wehlematt Aug 14 '13 at 15:38
