Answer 1

Just to add to this. You will get this error too, when you are running ng serve not from within your project folder. So always make sure your bash runs from your project folder.

Answer 2

Try to delete that "angular/cli": "1.0.0-beta.28.3", in the devDependencies it is useless , and add instead of it "@angular/compiler-cli": "^2.3.1", (since it is the current version, else add it by npm i --save-dev @angular/compiler-cli ), then in your root app folder run those commands:

1. rm -r node_modules (or delete your node_modules folder manually)
2. npm cache clean (npm > v5 add --force so: npm cache clean --force)
3. npm install

Answer 3

In my case this was required:
npm install @angular/compiler --save
npm install @angular/cli --save-dev

Answer 4

Try this

1. npm uninstall angular-cli
2. npm install @angular/cli --save-dev

Answer 5

Uninstall the Angular CLI and install the latest version of it.

npm uninstall angular-cli

npm install --save-dev @angular/cli@latest

Answer 6

I just run npm install and then ok.
