Mention any other details that might be useful.

Was working fine yesterday. Today I tried to deploy the app I've been working on with my travis CI build and that's when I first encountered this error. When I tried to reproduce it at the most basic level on my own machine it gave me the same error. I'm not sure what could've changed since I had to version locked in to 1.0.0-beta.18. I have the angular cli globally installed on my machine at version 18 as well and it is working fine. It's only when I try to install it locally to a directory that I am running in to this.

For me it has messed up every version since beta 16. Beta 15 gives me a different error, but betas 16, 17, 18, and 19-2 give me the ast-tools issue

I'm thinking it must be an issue with a recently-updated dependency that's marked as ^ in the angular-cli's own package.json, because the issue happens when you npm install even to a previous version

New version 1.0.0-beta.19-3 did not fix it.
( node 7.0.0 / npm 4.0.1 / macOS Sierra v.10.12.1 )

Seeing the same
Ubuntu 16.04,

node v6.9.1
npm 3.10.8

Tried reverting the previous version of angular-cli and clean install of both global and project node packages still seeing the same error

SamD picture SamD on 28 Oct 2016

worked for me at 10am this morning (PST) on new project, but broke this afternoon (2PM) when I deleted node_modules/ folder and re-ran npm install again (app that uses angular-cli, which is globally installed).

Run again npm install -g angular-cli it's now working

Dupe of https://github.com/angular/angular-cli/issues/2941, there's more information there.

filipesilva picture filipesilva on 29 Oct 2016

I had the same issue, turns out I had accidentally also installed angular-cli locally, and it wasn't using the global install.

@filipesilva You closed as dupe but you marked the issue as dupe of itself.
