Shortening the name of all the folders has helped with the malformed part and installing the seperate files to version 8 seems to have done the trick. And thanks for moving the browser link to the bottom Cheers

I too have been hit with this, and there's no diagnostic/debugging information I can see. I simply cannot use the expected ng update commands to update cli or core at all. I get hit with about 7 different "malformed metadata" error messages, then get nailed with a codelyzer incompatible peer dependency, and it just gives up at that point.

I'm not thrilled with manually updating every individual cli and core entry in package.json, but I'm afraid at this point my only hope is to use the cli to spin up a new 8.0 "Hello World" project, and then manually diff/correct my project from all of the temp projects values.

Also having issues trying to update.

I'm being the following:

It was not. Person did not follow template, that's why they closed it. :|

[andrewdaylondon]

Oh no I didnt follow the template, I'm such a bad person aaaaaAAAAAAAWWWWWwwwww!
I used angular cli 6.2.8 which worked, lets hope someone can fix such a major issue before we all move over to React.

[oorobets]

In my case I was updating from Angular 6.1 to angular@latest, which is version 8 right now. Upgrade to version 7.3.9 worked just fine.

According to https://update.angular.io/

Warning: We do not recommend moving across multiple major versions.

[driiftkiing]

This command is working for me ng update @angular/cli@~7.0.0

I have also tried ng update @angular/cli --to 7, but that is not working.

Try a hard update: ng update [pkg] --force
