angular-cli: ng new my-dream-app error

Question

I'm trying to create a new Angular 2 app using Angular CLI, but getting an error.

Here's the information I could think of collecting:

Version Information

When I run:

ng version

I get:

(node:3184) fs: re-evaluating native module sources is not supported. If you are using the graceful-fs module, please update it to a more recent version.
angular-cli: 0.1.0
node: 6.1.0
os: win32 x64

Error Information

When I run:

ng new my-dream-app

I get:

(node:176) fs: re-evaluating native module sources is not supported. If you are using the graceful-fs module, please update it to a more recent version.

Answer 1

Try this:

npm uninstall -g angular-cli
npm cache clean
npm install -g angular-cli@latest

Answer 2

I have seen that when I tried to install webdriver-manager as non-global NPm dependency into the project generated by Angular CLI.

So, here are a couple of things to try, based on the difference between my environment and tries, and your tries and the versions written in your question.

• Ignore "node:88754", this is the one safe to bypass

• Upgrade NPM to latest version, for me that was 3.9.0

   npm update -g npm 

• Try to install "webdriver-manager" globally

   npm install -g webdriver-manager 

  There are issues with current NPM that might get you errors. The current workaround is to just retry for a couple of times :(

• Update Angular CLI version (mine says "1.0.0 -beta.1 ")

   npm install -g angular-cli 

  Make sure ng --version returns something equal to or higher than mine.

Not sure if this will fix it for you 100%, but we can take it from there and see what you get then.

Answer 3

Uninstall angular-cli with cmd: npm uninstall angular-cli And reinstall with the cmd: npm install -g angular-cli

Hop that will help you.
