selenium-html-js-converter phantomJS help

[manoflinux]

I am trying to use  selenium-html-js-converter  to take a very simple selenium IDE test convert it to nodeJS and run it. 
It should be using phatomJS to run the test, thats the reason I am posting this here, I thought someone here might had used this nodJS module. 
The conversion seems to work with no errors, but when I try to run the output I get this. 

"../node-v6.11.3-linux-x64/bin/node ./run.js

I have tried a couple of tests, different versions of nodeJS and all get the same error. any ideas? 
I am including the convert script I used and the run script and the output file that is used by the run script. 
sorry I had problems posting the files.to this group so I made a handy pastebin with everything but the actual output but you can recreate it from the files I include in the paste. if you need the output as well I can provide that.
