[valscion]

The error you are seeing is not coming from webpack-bundle-analyzer, as far as I know. Seems like something is off with ng cli instead. Have you tried asking over in their issue tracker?

[musso]

Thanks for the reply, the problem exists only when webpack-bundle-analyzer is installed.
When I run npm uninstall webpack-bundle-analyzer -S, the problem gone.

Some more errors shown when install again

Do you have rxjs in dependencies of your package.json as the peer dependency warning tells you to have?

1. @angular/cli uses yarn instead of npm. That's why you see all these errors during npm install.
2. webpack-bundle-analyzer is built into @angular/cli so there is no need to install it separately. Sorry, it's not.
3. Please, ask in @angular/cli issue tracker why ng serve throws an error.

[musso]

@th0r can explain it more?

1. you mean I have to update yarn ?
2. I have to use webpack-bundle-analyzer cli, do I need to install it separately or just @angular/cli is ok?

[th0r]

1. You need to install webpack-bundle-analyzer globally with npm i -g webpack-bundle-analyzer
2. Generate stats.json with ng build --prod --stats-json
3. Run webpack-bundle-analyzer dist/<project-name>/stats.json

[musso]

thanks, it works

[th0r]

@musso but there is an issue with Angular 6: #174

[grepit]

All of the above answer are correct but they did not work for me. The only way I was able to make this work was by follow steps/commands

ng new MY_PROJECT_NAME
cp -r from_my_old_project to_new_MY_PROJECT_NAME
