What happened?

I am getting errors trying to set up node. I have tried the Recommended installation and From Source installation. I get the same errors on both. I have installed node, rust, and yarn. All newest versions. After troubleshooting I have globally installed tsc and edited the tsconfig.json to include "types": ["node']

Attached a file with error report. I included the beginning and end in the debug output because whole thing was too many characters.

Did you build in ironfish/ironfish before trying yarn start:js in the ironfish/ironfish-cli?
