Angular-cli: BroccoliTypscriptCompiler error during ng serve

Created on 7 Apr 2016  路  31Comments  路  Source: angular/angular-cli

Running ng serve and making a change to a file gives me the following error:

The Broccoli Plugin: [BroccoliTypeScriptCompiler] failed with:

This error does not occur when I kill the serve process and start it again.

I was having the same problem in windows with beta 1 until I ran my command line as administrator. I'm assuming if you're haveing the problem under linux or osx you can run it as sudo and it would fix it.

I should add that this only appears when ng serve threw a TS compiler error anyway.

So when there's a TS error, and I fix it, I get the error mentioned above

Also for me. @hansl is aware of that issue.

I am having the same issue except the error is still persisting after attempting to serve again

I'm getting the same behavior upon fixing a bug, except I get:

Error: Trying to add a new entry to an already existing one:

I have an open stackoverflow question with more details. Resetting the server does work for me.

A problem deleting old files like this prior ticket?

vt5491 picture vt5491 on 8 Apr 2016

I upgraded to watchman as recommended under the ember-cli web site to see if this would fix the problem. Unfortunately, it did not.

So the problem happens with _NodeWatcher_ and _Watchman_.

I also tried the emacs lockfile fixes as recommended under the ember-cli site, but no effect here either.

I am running Linux mint 17.3.

The problem is also reproducible for me under windows 10.

Since this problem was _really_ bugging me -- to the point where I just couldn't work with angular-cli anymore, I just looked at the stack trace and basically zapped the code to ignore these problems. I've been using it for several hours now, and everything seems to work fine. I would think a real fix would be about figuring out why it's trying to use duplicate files, but here's what I did anyway:

1) edit module
node_modules/angular-cli/lib/broccoli/broccoli-typescript.js

2) edit method _addNewFileEntry like so (altered code marked by my initials 'vt'):

 _addNewFileEntry(entry) {
    const p = path.join(this.inputPaths[0], entry.relativePath);
    if (this._fileRegistry[p]) {
      //vt add
      console.log("vt.broccoli-typescript.js: intercepting dupicate entry error for" + p);
      //vt end
      //vtthrow new Error('Trying to add a new entry to an already existing one: ' + p);
    }

3) edit method _outputFile:

_outputFile(absoluteFilePath, fileContent, registry) {
absoluteFilePath = path.resolve(this.cachePath, absoluteFilePath);
// Replace the input path by the output.
absoluteFilePath = absoluteFilePath.replace(this.inputPaths[0], this.cachePath);
const outputFilePath = absoluteFilePath.replace(this.cachePath, this.outputPath);

if (registry) {
  registry.outputs.add(absoluteFilePath);
}

fse.mkdirsSync(path.dirname(absoluteFilePath));
const content = this.fixSourceMapSources(fileContent);
fs.writeFileSync(absoluteFilePath, content, FS_OPTS);

//vt add
try {
//vt end
  fse.mkdirsSync(path.dirname(outputFilePath));
  fs.linkSync(absoluteFilePath, outputFilePath);
//vt add
}
catch (e) {
  console.log('_outputFile: caught error ' + e);
}
//vt end
}

A full output log now looks like:

@vt5491 thanks for this, but IMO this is complex enough to let @hansl do the work. He rewrote the whole broccoli-typescript.js about a week ago and knows how things are in compiler. Since there's a really lousy docs about TS compiler or even not existent please wait, I think the patch is coming soon.

jkuri picture jkuri on 8 Apr 2016

That's good news. Looking forward to the official patch.

This has been resolved with https://github.com/angular/angular-cli/pull/416.

Same error with angular-cli v1.0.0-beta 1.
Did I miss some fixes? Can't find any solution.

I was having the same problem in windows with beta 1 until I ran my command line as administrator. I'm assuming if you're haveing the problem under linux or osx you can run it as sudo and it would fix it.

Exactly like @TheOriginalJosh : just run the command line as an administrator and the ng serve does run well. Thanks !

Does that happens when you delete some of the source file?

Check if this is repro in .11 version

sirajc picture sirajc on 2 Aug 2016

I found my problem. (It was not same problem as in this topic. Sorry.)

When i add a parameter to constructor in my component (member.component.ts) i didn't update test file (member.component.spec.ts) manually. And i got error from tmp folder like below:

.../tmp/broccoli_type_script_compiler-input_base_path-gSIkus6k.tmp/0/src/app/mng/mng.component.spec.ts (10, 21): Supplied parameters do not match any signature of call target.

When i deleted/commented describe section in member.component.spec.ts, it was builded normally and error has gone.

So if you see an error about spec.ts and parameters, think about test file. Weird one is error does not tell about exact file.

If you comment some code in the todos.component.spec.ts, this error will disappear.
Try to do it:

/* let component = new TestComponent();
expect(component).toBeTruthy() */

I know that I will need it for unit test, and I don't know how to solve it.
It's not a good solution.

Running into a similar issue with all spec files generated with angular-cli 1.0.0-beta.10 & Angular2 RC4 (or 5). For me 'ng serve' works fine, but 'ng build -prod' does not, and fails with:

The Broccoli Plugin: [BroccoliTypeScriptCompiler] failed with:
Error: Typescript found the following errors:
  S:/projects/fox1/ui/src/angular/web-application/tmp/broccoli_type_script_compiler-input_base_path-dQOJLOas.tmp/0/src/app/shared/component-outlet.directive.spec.ts (8, 21): Supplied parameters do not match any signature of call target.

In the code, the keywords describe, it and expect are all underlined with message "Cannot find name 'describe'" for example.

Renaming or removing the spec files fixes it, but it would be nice to be able to try out unit tests too. Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks!
