Exception: Can't bind to 'ngFor' since it isn't a known native property

Question

What am I doing wrong?

import {bootstrap, Component} from \'angular2/angular2\'

@Component({
  selector: \'conf-talks\',
  template: `


        
      

Answer 1

In my case, the module containing the component using the *ngFor resulting in this error, was not included in the app.module.ts. Including it there in the imports array resolved the issue for me.
