Missing typings directory

[roggaioso]

1. OS? Windows 7, 8 or 10. Linux (which distribution). Mac OSX (Yosemite? El Capitan?) Win2012
2. Versions. Please run ng --version. If there's nothing outputted, please run in a Terminal: node --version and paste the result here: node 6.4.0 npm 3.10.3
3. Repro steps. Was this an app that wasn't created using the CLI? What change did you do on your code? etc. ng new myapp npm i -g typings (typings install failed) when I run ng serve I get the error:

1. Mention any other details that might be useful. Despite the message saying that the typings directory doesn't exist, the folder is in node_modules.

[roggaioso]

I updated Node.js (v6.6.0), recreated the application, but the problem persists. Remember that despite the message, the typings directory exists in the folder node_modules.

[roggaioso]

I runned typings install dt~es6-promise dt~es6-collections --global --save and the error changed.

I updated the Angular (to RC6), updated the Anglular-CLI (beta-10 to beta-15, following this link), delete and recreated the project ..... ta da! It worked!
