@shamrozwarraich add typings inside typings/index.d.ts like this
/// <reference path="../node_modules/angularfire2/firebase3.d.ts" />

[dmastag]

Or you could try do the install method from #234

Here is the specific link
https://github.com/angular/angularfire2/issues/234#issuecomment-229560239

[filoxo]

@imsingh the problem with including it there is that that file is autogenerated by typings and if you ever do another typings install (to add a new typings file or just refreshing them) it'll be removed automatically. I recommend you do not add the reference comment to the index.d.ts.
For example, the angular-cli sets up a postinstall script that automatically runs typings install after every 'npm install'. This can lead to very confusing errors because the typings you once had are now no longer included.

@filoxo as u mension in the #234 i followed the setup now i facing these error :/

and thnks to all @davideast @jeffbcross @imsingh @dmastag

[filoxo]

What's saved in your typings.json? I suspect that you might have both firebase and firebase3 typings saved. You should only have the latter.

[shamrozwarraich]

"globalDependencies": {
"firebase3": "file:node_modules/angularfire2/firebase3.d.ts"
}

[filoxo]

The only other thing I can think of is to delete typings/ directory in case some file there isn't being updated and then typings install to reinstall them.

[shamrozwarraich]

@filoxo :-1: need help

[r-park]

Your error is referring to typings\main.d.ts

Caught exception:
 Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, realpath 'E:\firebase v3\ionic2-angul
arfire-sample-firebase3-support\typings\main.d.ts'

Assuming you're using typings version 1.x It should be typings\index.d.ts — make sure tsconfig.json is pointing to the correct file.

[matstam]

just make sure that
E:firebase v3ionic2-angularfire-sample-firebase3-supporttypingsmain.d.ts contains:

/// <reference path="globals/firebase3/index.d.ts" />

If you dont have the main.d.ts, then u can just copy index.d.ts and rename it

[shamrozwarraich]

thnks to all @matstam @imsingh @r-park @imsingh @dmastag @filoxo

[davideast]

Closing because it looks like this was solved. @shamrozwarraich Respond if you still need help.
