Could you provide me with the output from ionic info from within your project directory? Thanks, this should help in troubleshooting.

I just had this issue when trying to start a new v2 project. Fixed it with:

npm uninstall ionic -g
npm install ionic -g

This is my output I'm trying to update since I was still on Angular2 RC 4

That is interesting @btsiders 's solution seems to work for me as well.

Was not expecting so!

Thanks for the issue! This issue appears to be associated with an old version of the Ionic CLI. Please update to the latest CLI version, which supports all versions of the Ionic Framework. If the issue is relevant and if it persists after updating to the latest CLI version, please create a new issue.

Thank you for using Ionic!
