1. Mention any other details that might be useful. It might be important to note that I don't have admin access, plus we have a decrypting firewall which has caused issues before. I dunno if this is related though.

   ---

   Thanks! We'll be in touch soon.

[drejohnson]

Same here

[jianliao]

typescript upgraded to 2.0.2. lock the version to 2.0.0 should fix the problem.

[TopDuke]

tsc -v version 2.0.2 Same here

[traneHead]

Same errors with typescript version 1.8.10 (OSX El Capitan), node version 6.3.1 (via brew). Upgraded to node 6.5.0, same thing. Upgraded typescript to 2.0.0. Errors gone. Upgraded typescript to 2.0.2. Errors back.

[matpulis]

Have same issue did anyone manage to find a fix ?

I am creating a new project using ng new, but it is not even creating a typings.json file

[borysn]

@matpulis typings are being phased out in favor of the new @types, you can see an example here for adding new types

tsconfig.json package.json

[borysn]

@traneHead can confirm, for both node 6.5 and 6.1

[aszechlicki]

@traneHead in my case errors were gone after reverting typescript to 2.0.0 (i mean both global and local package) and upgrading node to 6.5.0 and npm to 3.10.6

[JohannesHoppe]

Bug confirmed on a fresh system with latest node.js and

npm i -g typescript angular-cli@webpack
ng new

[clifntx]

Sorry if this sounds dense, I upgraded typescript to latest (npm install -g typescript@next), but i am having trouble rolling back to 2.0.0. Are you using npm shrinkwrap?

[aszechlicki]

@SeekingMonkey npm uninstall typescript -g npm cache clean npm install typescript@2.0.0 -g should do the trick

[vapits]

Same issues in new projects here. The downgrade to 2.0.0 is the only workaround for now.

[tobang]

Experiencing the same problem. Win 7 Node 6.5.0 Npm 3.10.6 Typescript 2.0.0

[gpcrawford]

Experiencing same problem.

node 6.2.2 npm 3.10.6

Rollback to typescript 2.0.0 provides a temporary fix.

NOTE: I had to rollback the local (non-global) version of typescript:

$ npm uninstall typescript $ npm cache clean $ npm install typescript@2.0.0

[JiriBalcar]

I am experiencing the same problem while installing angular-cli@webpack globaly. Unfortunately rollbacking to Typescript 2.0.0 didn't fix the problem for me.

[kylecordes]

CLI team: a couple of days ago we got a .3, .4, .5., .6, .7., .8 to quickly work through an irritating dependency problem. Now we have another one, this time with Typescript. How about shipping .9 today with an updated TS dependency? Otherwise I expect a few dups each day of this issue, and needlessly irritated users, in the meantime.

[kylecordes]

Also, regarding a comment earlier, I have experimentally confirmed that there is no need at all to discard your NPM cache ("npm cache clean") to work around this. NPM is highly capable of understanding two different versions of a package in its cache, in a sense that is its main purpose in existence.

[linus1412]

I'm one of those users ;(

[jasonswett]

I was able to get it working but only after much fiddling. I'm using Node 6.5.0, npm 3.10.6 and TypeScript 2.0.0 (local, not global). It also seemed not to work for me until I blew away my project directory and ran ng new again. So I can confirm that configuring your libraries to those versions can work. If it doesn't work for you, maybe try creating a fresh new project to see if you can do an error-free ng build there.

[BernhardRode]

I can confirm changing "typescript": "^2.0.0" to "typescript": "2.0.0"

is a valid workaround for the issue.

So is it a typescript thing or angular-cli ;)

[ghost]

This did not work for me. See issue 1887 for more details.

[LeonardoChavesCavalcante]

I have the same problem with angular-cli@webpack , I tried with typescript 1.8.0, 2.0.0, windows 7, windows 8, node 5.8, 6.5. nothing work

[ghost]

I was able to solve this problem with the following configuration:

Upgrade imy tools

 node --version

$ npm --version

$ ng --version

[rakibler]

RC6 came out and has a dependency on TS 2.0.2. Can't upgrade until the CLI supports it :(

[billdwhite]

Yep, blocked until CLI has 2.0.2 support

[ghsyeung]

Seems to be an issue in awesome-typescript-loader, see https://github.com/Microsoft/TypeScript/issues/10633

[HamidHabib]

I guess I found the solution, i tried it in two different machines and it worked: Downgrade globally to Typescript 2.0.0 & change "typescript": "^2.0.0"to "typescript": "2.0.0"in mypackages.json

[aderbas]

I'm a little disappointed with the CLI. I spent the day trying to solve packages incompatibility. I managed to install everything and now this failure. The worst that there are many people with the same problem and no solution.

[ShadowManu]

Just to guide a little on a real fix. Aggresively adding libs to the tsconfig removed the errors. Mine actually looks like this:

[bdinsmor]

I realize there are a lot of moving parts, but has there ever been a thought to hold back releases of individual parts until they can release an entire ecosystem update? In the grand scheme of things a stagger of a few days or weeks doesn't matter, but wow is it frustrating... Just a thought - other companies (Elastic is great at this IMHO), wait to release Elasticsearch or Kibana until they are all compatible with one another. It would be nice to see a release package that would include: angular-cli angular2 angular2-material

I wouldn't mind waiting another week to get RC6 or RC7 if it meant that everything just worked.

[aszechlicki]

@bdinsmor but there are many people using angular2 without angular-cli, and even more using it without angular2-material that would mean making all those people wait for something they don't care about

[bdinsmor]

I understand what you are saying but if we are talking about waiting a week to avoid 1000 GitHub issues, I would think it would be worth the wait and forced coordination between Google teams.

Hello - My understanding of a version appended with Beta it that is has been made available to the user community for usability validation and, unless something goes radically wrong - like an explosion on the test platform like SPACE-X this part week, a few usability issues might be addressed before the the final version is released, and that the final version will be 100% compatible with the Beta versions. My understanding of a version appended with RC means that it is ready for market, that the final version is around the corner, and it will be 100% with the RC versions.

The recent series of releases by Google and angular-cli suggest that we all are operating from a different perception of the meaning of these terms.

The lessons learned suggest that our friends at Google and angular-cli owe their user community a good discussion for us to develop a common understanding of the meaning of these terms, particularly in terms of their responsibilities in appending them to their releases and then, once this is in place, do a better job sticking to what has been agreed.

Upgrading to the latest CLI version should solve this issue

I don't understand whether using "^" or "~" or locking to specific version in package.json is the best practice. Spent 3 hours trying to solve the same issue today, before I found this thread.

This issue is not any longer active. Generally deps are pretty stable now. The CLI supports YARN, too!

delete "node_modules" and reinstall using $ npm install
