Cannot read property 'glob' of null

[mkdebie]

Please provide us with the following information:

OS?

Ubuntu 16.04

Versions.

@angular/cli: 1.0.0-rc.1
node: 7.6.0
os: linux x64

Repro steps.

When I create an app in angular cli, every ng command results in a crash resulting in the output below. Since being stuck in the very early phase, none of the files created by angular/cli where touched I have no clue how to fix this.

The log given by the failure.

I have tried the following option to resolve the issue
Steps to resolve the issue

$ pwd
it shows —> /Users/YourName /*** That is your Home path***/
Execute the below command to display the hidden files

$ defaults write com.apple.Finder AppleShowAllFiles true
$ killall Finder
After executing the above command you will see the hidden files.
if “.angular-cli.json” file exist under “/Users/yourname” (i.e Home Path) then remove “.angular-cli.json” file.

then navigate to your application path and try execute ‘ng’ command.
