Node.js: Call to 'node findJavaHome.js' returned exit status 127. while trying to load binding.gyp

Question

I've cloned node-java and when I run node-gyp configure build or npm install, I get the error below. My JAVA_HOME is set to: /opt/java/jdk1.7/latest and works fine for some Java applications. I'm using Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS

This was due to the node/nodejs naming issue on Ubuntu. I got around the error by executing:

sudo ln -s /usr/bin/nodejs /usr/bin/node

although there's a different preferred solution here: nodejs vs node on ubuntu 12.04
