Mention any other details that might be useful (optional)

I've tried to install before many times. Installed and uninstalled, cleaned cache, but failed.

[clydin]

Can you try with 1.4.10?

[ulantiger]

Thank you for your reply. I cleaned cache by force and installed 1.4.10.
Installed successfully and had no errors. Issue resolved.

[ulantiger]

I just followed to suggestion and installed version 1.4.10
Please first uninstall all versions and clear the cache, and after install:
ng install -g @angular/[email protected]

[ghost]

Just a question: why is this error occurring in cli versions older then 1.4.10?

[asmith2306]

Also seeing this issue:

ng g component MyComponent
Your global Angular CLI version (1.6.5) is greater than your local
version (1.4.1). The local Angular CLI version is used.

To disable this warning use "ng set --global warnings.versionMismatch=false".

[albertotorresfoltyn]

definitely angular sucks... sorry for posting this... but this can't happen in two platforms today in 2018...

[mpituley]

Had the same issue today. Upgraded to angular-cli 1.7.0 both globally and for the project and the issue is fixed.

[ProgrammingFuad]

Wow I guess It wasn't just happening to me.

[hazeeb]

The same error had happened to me, when
@angular/cli: 1.4.8
node: 8.10.0

After upgrading the angular CLI, ng new newappworked fine.

@angular/cli: 1.7.3
node:8.10.0

I also faced the same issue but resolved by following this steps they will help you.

npm uninstall -g @angular/cli
npm uninstall --save-dev @angular/cli
npm cache clean
npm install -g @angular/cli@latest
npm install --save-dev @angular/cli@latest

it worked for me.

[alishannb]

I also faced the same issue but resolved by following this steps they will help you.

npm uninstall -g @angular/cli
npm uninstall --save-dev @angular/cli
npm cache clean
npm install -g @angular/cli@latest
npm install --save-dev @angular/cli@latest

it worked for me.

if npm cache clean gives you error then use --force flag as follows.

Here is the code to clean the cache forcefully.

npm cache clean --force

[rbrisita]

Why are broken versions listed as available to install? This would save developers a lot of time if they were not or at least listed as broken.

[jkosanovic]

Surprised to have run into this issue. Just following the tutorial on Angular.IO and run into this first off the bat. Trying AliShan's steps right now. First uninstall took 1000 seconds.

It worked however, I had to create another project, the original project got messed up somehow with those steps, I got a message that it did not exist. When I created the new project, I was asked two questions one was if I wanted to use CSS, haven't seen that before. I can now generate a component,

I also faced the same issue but resolved by following these steps they will help you.

npm uninstall -g @angular/cli
npm uninstall --save-dev @angular/cli
npm cache clean
npm install -g @angular/cli@latest
npm install --save-dev @angular/cli@latest

I just followed to suggestion and installed version 1.4.10
Please first uninstall all versions and clear the cache, and after install:
ng install -g @angular/[email protected]

The last command should be npm install -g @angular/[email protected] right? because ng command didn't seem to work
