Answer 1

I was facing the same issue while developing an angular6 project. I spent more time finally it's working for me.

Here is the solution:

1. Open "package.json"

2. rxjs and "TypeScript" verstion like below screenshot

3. Change like the below screenshot:

4. Next go to your project folder and delete "node_modules" folder.

5. After delete, next run npm install in your project folder

6. Finally run ng serve. It should work (I tried 3 projects and confirmed).

Answer 2

In your Package.json file remove ^ symbol (caret) from "rxjs": "^6.0.0" and add "rxjs": "6.0.0" it will work fine.

Answer 3

These two changes what you want:

// in package.json:

"rxjs": "^6.2.2" ==> "rxjs": "latest"
"typescript": "2.7.2" ==> "typescript": "2.8"

where ==> means to replace

Answer 4

I changed the version for rxjs and typescript. My package.json has the following entries:

"typescript": "^2.7.2"
"rxjs": "^6.3.3",

I also had to upgrade angular cli.

Answer 5

I have tried all the other answers. But I found issue. I had ts lint plugin installed which forced file to be ended without space. I removed it and it is working.

You can also remove the space going to that specific file.

Answer 6

Just change the TypeScript dependency version to ^2.8
