Just reporting this issue in case others experience the same problem with new installs when npm install.

This happens because the latest rxjs version is no longer compatible with the typescript version we use for the starter ("~2.7.2"). Pinning the rxjs version from "^6.2.0" to "6.2.0" addresses the problem (apparently 6.3.3 should be OK according to the comments at https://stackoverflow.com/questions/54434333/error-ts1005-expected-typescript-angular-6-for-first-build-error-rxjs-insi)

Probably typescript should be upgraded to a higher version soon....

Go to package.json

change rxjs to "rxjs": "6.0.0", and save

go to console and type

"npm update"

after that type

"ng serve"

[RajithaAlluri]

• Remove the "node_modules" folder from your project
• Go to package.json
• Change rxjs version to "rxjs": "6.3.3"
• Go to console and run "npm install" again
• And then run "ng serve"

It should work now !!

This worked for me. Thanks Rajnitha!

@amilathennakoon updated "rxjs": "^6.0.0" to "rxjs": "6.0.0" I get the below error

ERROR in node_modules/rxjs-compat/operator/shareReplay.d.ts(2,10): error TS2305: Module '"/export/appl/fqdprod/jenkins_rd/workspace/CI000000024053883/B2BGatewayUI/Build_Release_1.1/b2bgateway-ui/node_modules/rxjs/internal-compatibility/index"' has no exported member 'ShareReplayConfig'.

Below is the version of rxjs-compat from my package.json

"rxjs-compat": "^6.2.2"

Should I align the version of rxjs-compat based on the change made to rxjs version ? Please advice !

[AlexandraBryantKS]

Coming to comment that the error
ERROR in node_modules/rxjs/internal/types.d.ts(81,44): error TS1005: ';' expected
exists for rxjs 6.5.0, however uninstalling that and installing @6.3.3 fixes the issue.

[Ollynov]

I continue to get the same error on any of those versions mentioned. (even after deleting node modules and installing again)

[aishwaryardandi]

@Ollynov remove the carat symbol (^) before the version number for rxjs. It worked for me and I also changed the version to 6.2.2

[ctviky]

This worked for me. Thanks.
