Same problem here. When I list my global node modules, I do get a peer dependency errors as well.

Just ran: npm install -g angular-cli@webpack

and now I get several errors whenever I run any ng command

$ ng --version
Error while running script "/usr/local/lib/node_modules/angular-cli/addon/ng2/utilities/ast-utils.ts":
Error: Cannot find module '@angular-cli/ast-tools'

[hansl]

I forgot to publish the ast-tools package. This should be fixed soon.

[renevall]

Ok that was fast

[phmello]

@hansl thanks for you quick response, I think it is worth noticing that during the installation Im getting the message:
[execSync v1.0.2]
Native code compile failed!!
according to this, the dependency should be dropped in favor of
sync-exec as execSync is no longer maintained.

cheers

[carlosvalle]

still @angular-cli/ast-tools not found - anyone else also having the same issue after upgrading to .4?

[phmello]

after upgrading to .5, same error

[lindsaymarkward]

https://gitter.im/angular/angular-cli - @hansl says it's coming... He's working on it as we 'speak'.

[hansl]

This is fixed with the latest webpack (8) release. Just upgrade to the latest webpack. Sorry for the problems.

Cheers!

[renevall]

Now working on node 6.5

Just had to install again.

[beliyu]

[brendanalexdr]

[tallkid24]

Getting the same with beta-18. It was working earlier today.

[sdeuvarow]

Same with beta-17 , beta-18 and beta-19-2.

I think that some dependencies were updated yesterday, and this broke angular-cli. The package.json has many '^' in the dependecies.

[totemusik]

Same for me.
Worked perfect yesterday, but now trying to set up a new project I do get errors

[roelver]

Same for me using beta-19-2.

[MiguelGL]

Same here, [email protected] (via npm install -g angular-cli, had a previous cli version installed).

node --version => v7.0.0
npm --version => 3.10.8

Using nvm.

[pkraus109]

Same issue.

[ayubali]

i spent my hole day and getting same error.

[MerlinMartel]

same here. tried to install an older version on angular-cli (beta-16) and I have the same issue now... I'm stuck...

[sdeuvarow]

It's fixed now. Run npm install ... it should work now.

[fredricadell]

It works.. I had to do
npm uninstall -g angular-cli
and
npm install -g angular-cli@latest
then it worked fine.

[nadeemse]

Anyone got it fixed, I am getting the same issue.

[daddyschmack]

i'm getting the issue also, running mac sierra, everthing was running fine, then updated 2 days ago. Now I reinstalled from scratch, and this is what happens:
@angular/[email protected] requires a peer of @angular/[email protected] but none was installed.
user-MacBook-Pro:faclient username$ ng version
-bash: ng: command not found

user-MacBook-Pro:faclient username$ node --version
v6.4.0

[natificent]

Is it just me or do things just absolutely break on a regular basis for no apparent reason.

[daddyschmack]

I haven't noticed that. This project has been very helpful to me and i appreciate all the work done on it. Besides, it's not like we are paying for it so it's my opinion that we should be appreciative of the work being done for us.

[filipesilva]

We had an issue with the latest release a few days ago, more information can be found in https://github.com/angular/angular-cli/issues/2940.
