@borntodesign

Hi @borntodesign ,

This seemed to have been a problem last month due to users not deleting all of their @angular-cli references. Could you please ensure you run:

npm uninstall -g @angular-cli
rm -rf node_modules
npm install

Within your app folder, also what version of ts are you using?

@RicardoVaranda

Hi @RicardoVaranda ,

I Still see this error which doesn't say much.
Uninstalled @angular-cli local and global.
Received the error with both TS 2.2.1 and 2.0.10
The only thing that seems to makes it work is removing my nested lazy loaded module.

Hi all,

I'm having the same issue

@RicardoVaranda I actually have since copied it into a completely fresh angular-cli project and still no joy?

In my case I have just

with no explanation on what the problem is

Just upgraded to @angular/cli: 1.0.0-rc.2
In a fresh ng new project, ng build -prod builds fine.

My project builds and runs fine with:

ng serve
ng build --environment prod --output-hashing=all

However, these break:

ng build -prod
ng build --environment prod --output-hashing=all --target=production

I'm not sure exactly what -prod or --target=production trigger (AOT?) but the build results in this error:

ERROR in Error encountered resolving symbol values statically. Expression form not supported (position 15:13 in the original .ts file), resolving symbol SearchInputComponent in /home/whitea/Code/boost_dashboard/src/app/shared/search-input/search-input.component.ts

ERROR in ./src/main.ts
Module not found: Error: Can't resolve './$$_gendir/app/app.module.ngfactory' in '/home/whitea/Code/boost_dashboard/src'
@ ./src/main.ts 4:0-74
@ multi ./src/main.ts

SearchInputComponent is the first declared and exported Component in a shared module.
main > AppModule > CoreModule > CoreSharedModule > SearchInputComponent
CoreSharedModule is where I put Components needed by AppComponent in addition to other modules.

Why everyone here has at least an error and I don't have anyhting? :D

In my case I solved by removing --bail option from webpack, so that the error actually shows during build!

I had a dummy file from a previous implementation where we used ngrx. After I've removed the file it's working again.

If you can provide a simple repro we can investigate.

Today, I was able to build fine with ng build -prod --aot on a new project with the v1.0.0 of the cli.

However, I do get the error with the latest version of the AotPlugin and on a basic app:

"@ngtools/webpack": "^1.3.0" - error
"@ngtools/webpack": "^1.2.8" - no error

Module not found: Error: Can't resolve '../aot/app/app.module.ngfactory'

I don't know in which version it started to break.

@florinbardosi

So I think there's probably a few different bugs going on in this issue, but I have a repro for the error that @florinbardosi originally got in a repo at https://github.com/ycros/angular-aot-cryptic-error-repro - in my case it's including a dependency that I guess is incompatible with AOT in some way, and the actual bug is that the error needs to be clearer.

@tinchou

Regarding the AotPlugin, in #5329 the fix/workaround by proposed by @tinchou worked for me. It is a window-specific problem.

+1
Works with --aot=false

@hansl

Hey @hansl is there another ticket where this is being more actively investigated or is this on hold? AOT reporting with the ngfactory can be quite difficult to decipher.

Can you reproduce this issue with the latest CLI? If this is still valid, would you provide a minimal demo where we can reproduce the problem?

Closing the issue due to inactivity. If the problem still exists in the latest version of the CLI, please open a new issue following the template and providing a minimal demo where we can reproduce it. Thanks! :-)
