Sails and Node versions are:

ahsan@ahsan-Inspiron-N5110:~/Desktop/CardCashP2/Website$ sails --version
0.10.5
ahsan@ahsan-Inspiron-N5110:~/Desktop/CardCashP2/Website$ node --version
v0.10.35

Thanks

Your sails version is 0.10.5 but the sails-disk version specified in your package.json is "sails-disk": "~0.9.0",.

You should update your sails-disk to the latest version. Here's how:

In package.json:

Change "sails-disk": "~0.9.0", to "sails-disk": "*",. Save the file.

Now, run npm update --save.

This will update your sails-disk (probably to "sails-disk": "~0.10.0",) and also set that version in package.json.

Now try sails lift. Good luck !

PS. You should do the same for sails as that version is also not in sync with the installed version.
