hyperledger-fabric "Writing your first Application" query.js step fails

Steps "git clone...", "startFabric.sh" and "npm.install" complete with no errors. "node query.js" results in:

    Set wallet path, and associate user  PeerAdmin  with application
    error: [Client.js]: Failed to load user "PeerAdmin" from local key value store. Error: TypeError: this is not a typed array.
      at Function.from (native)
      at importKey (/home/peter/fabric-samples/fabcar/node_modules/fabric-client/lib/impl/CryptoSuite_ECDSA_AES.js:180:26)
      at fromString (/home/peter/fabric-samples/fabcar/node_modules/fabric-client/lib/User.js:228:28)
      at /home/peter/fabric-samples/fabcar/node_modules/fabric-client/lib/Client.js:968:22
    error: [Client.js]: Failed to load an instance of requested user "PeerAdmin" from the state store on this Client instance. Error: TypeError: this is not a typed array.
      at Function.from (native)
      at importKey (/home/peter/fabric-samples/fabcar/node_modules/fabric-client/lib/impl/CryptoSuite_ECDSA_AES.js:180:26)
      at fromString (/home/peter/fabric-samples/fabcar/node_modules/fabric-client/lib/User.js:228:28)
      at /home/peter/fabric-samples/fabcar/node_modules/fabric-client/lib/Client.js:968:22
   Caught Error [TypeError: this is not a typed array.]

Note: after the git clone step, there is no "chaincode" in fabric-samples/fabcar as stated in the docs, but there is a chaincode/fabcar in fabric-samples. This does not seem to cause a problem. Note: All steps in "Building Your First Network" complete with no problems.

Hyperledger Fabric 1.0 has been tested against Node.js version >= 6.9 and < 7.x. If you get a similar error, recommend updating the version of Node.js (or use a version manager such as nvm) and re-try. If you have already run npm install with an older version of Node, you should delete the node_modules tree and re-run npm install to be sure you are installing the correct dependencies.
