@santhoshkumarch You should run the command inside Angular CLI project you created. Make sure you have .angular-cli.json file in the folder from which you are running the command.

Based on the error message, it appears you are using an older version of the CLI. I would recommend upgrading to the latest version.

npm uninstall -g angular-cli
npm cache clean
npm install -g @angular/cli

Thank you @delasteve ! You are an absolute gem!

I have run those identical commands a few times to try and resolve this issue; with the exception being that I have not done it with the -g flag. Rookie mistake I suppose.

Closing as above.

Finally it works :) Thank you @delasteve

npm install -g @angular/cli@latest
