Upgrade Angular-CLI on Windows 10 with beta.17 fails to run #2631
Description
Tried to do the upgrade from beta.10 to beta.14 described in the wiki page and got a problem where the installation process is successful however I cannot run ng --version.
After couple of days I tried again (we are at beta.17) so I followed the same steps
- node update
npm uninstall angular-cli -gnpm cache cleannpm install angular-cli@latest -g
I get the same problem as before:

Maybe you missed
versionproperty inangular-cli.jsonfile.It should be updated to
1.0.0-beta.14or1.0.0-beta.17as well.filipesilva commentedon Oct 10, 2016
Wait, is that inside the project? Since the upgrade process requires you to make a new project, you should do it outside of the existing project.

The
testfolder is empty. I tried to create new project inside it withng new test-project. Just putng -vthere to demonstrate thatngis not running. Sorry for the confusion!filipesilva commentedon Oct 14, 2016
Hm.... this error can appear if there's a
node_modulesfolder with an older version anywhere in the folder hierarchy. Do you get the same error if you do this in, say,C:\test-folder\?lekova commentedon Oct 17, 2016
@filipesilva, that is exactly the problem I had. There are projects with an older version in the folder tree where I was trying to install the latest angular-cli. So I did as you suggested,
cd to C:\,uninstall,cache cleanandinstall latest. Verified withng newandng serve. Thanks!!!filipesilva commentedon Oct 17, 2016
Glad to hear it's sorted!
#2178 should have sorted this scenario overall, but if there's a older
nginstall up in the tree that one will be used instead.angular-automatic-lock-bot commentedon Sep 6, 2019
