I think this is a Beta26 issue as it only started after I updated to beta26. On my other machine which hasn't been updated it's working fine.

same problem here!
npm i -g [email protected] to downgrade for now.

Same here! This seems to be a major problem. Even the build command has this error.
Seems like the 'rawCliArguments' is not passed to the method 'run' calls and the scripts try to to a 'slice' on 'undefined'.

hello everyone!
did someone find the solution for this? i am also getting the same error.

As said @onkelfredrik if you downgrade your version of ionic it's works ( it works for me in any case), so try this:
npm i -g [email protected]

I am working on a fix for this and should have it out in a few hours. Thanks for reporting.

In the meantime you can downgrade to beta.25. npm i -g [email protected]

[sfabriece]

@jthoms1 can you update here when the fix is out. Also where can we find the changelog for ionic-cli?

[jthoms1]

I will post an update here. The beta work is currently done in the v2 branch. https://github.com/driftyco/ionic-cli/blob/v2/CHANGELOG.md

[jthoms1]

Commit 5549b828c87b2ea5cf29ccb1c562d519bb6ee1b5 fixes this issue.

beta.27 is now on NPM. You can update by installing from beta tag. npm i -g ionic@beta

Thanks for your patience!
