Running sanity checks on your system

✔ Global configuration file is valid
✔ NODE_PATH matches the npm root
✔ Node.js version
✔ No .bowerrc file in home directory
✔ No .yo-rc.json file in home directory
✔ npm version

I'm running these versions

nodejs - v4.2.6
npm    - 3.5.2
yo     - 1.8.5

Any thoughts?

Your NodeJS is too old, JHipster 4 requires 6.9.5, please upgrade node.
