Angularfire: Refusing to install angularfire2 as a dependency of itself

[aucevica]

I'm trying to follow the installation instructions.
I've done this task before, but now it fails in the application directory.
Despite the fact that it works (installation) on the parent directory, the angularfire2 module is not found by the compiler neither by VisualStudio.
Obs:
I reinstalled everything and still doesn't work!

I'm really dumb!!!! It's so embarrassing to me!
I changed the project´s name and worked fine!!
Sorry!

Thanks for change the message!

Refusing to install package with name "angularfire2" under a package
also called "angularfire2". Did you name your project the same
as the dependency you're installing?

When you have the "package.json" with project "name" attribute exactly same as the name of dependency you required to install you will face this issue.
