Angular-cli: Error when running ng serve after upgrade to Angular 2.1.1

Created on 22 Oct 2016 · 9Comments · Source: angular/angular-cli

I am trying to upgrade my Angular version to 2.1.1. This is my package.json:

  "dependencies": {
    "@angular/common": "~2.1.1",
    "@angular/compiler": "~2.1.1",
    "@angular/core": "~2.1.1",
    "@angular/forms": "~2.1.1",
    "@angular/http": "~2.1.1",
    "@angular/platform-browser": "~2.1.1",
    "@angular/platform-browser-dynamic": "~2.1.1"
   ...
}

When I am running ng serve after the upgrade I'm getting this error:

Cannot read property 'AssetUrl' of undefined
TypeError: Cannot read property 'AssetUrl' of undefined
at Object. (node_modules/@angular/compiler-cli/src/private_import_compiler.js:10:51)

Looks like a version mismatch!

delete node_modules
do a fresh npm i [email protected] -g
do again ng init
Y --> override package.json
report if this worked! 😉

But after your changes I can continue work on the same project without generate new one?

Sure. ng init will override all initial files, but will not delete other stuff.
Your changes to the initial files will be overridden (that's why you have to confirm this with Y).

But your project should be anyway under git version control, so that you can hand-pick the updated lines that you want to keep and those which you want to revert.

Just want to confirm that the solution posted by @JohannesHoppe worked well for me, thanks!

It came to me all the same.
Trying @JohannesHoppe ‘s solution.
Hope solving it.....

ok the "AssetUrl"-problem won't bother me any more.
But another comes out.
Here it is

ERROR in ./src/app/index/index.component.ts
Module not found: Error: Can't resolve '@ng-bootstrap/ng-bootstrap' in '/Users/LiuSheng/Java/workspace/ovit-java-framework/web/src/app/index'
@ ./src/app/index/index.component.ts 12:0-63
@ ./src/app/app.module.ts
@ ./src/app/index.ts
@ ./src/main.ts
@ multi main

Whether it's the bootstrap-version‘s problem or not？
I'm so confused.....

Did you install @ng-bootstrap/ng-bootstrap again after ng init?
