Dupe of #1079, that should have been fixed by #4901.

@aniruddhadas9 are you absolutely sure you're using a globally installed rc.2? Can you reinstall to make sure?

[aniruddhadas9]

@filipesilva Yes. I tried with both @angular/cli rc.1 and rc.2 and both have same result. I posted command here.

[filipesilva]

Ok, then please check the solutions in #1079 (checking your root dir for a node_modules or package.json and removing them). Those should help.

[aniruddhadas9]

Sure, Let me check that.

[aniruddhadas9]

removing package.json file from the root folder worked for me. would I close this issue or there is a permanent fix coming?

[filipesilva]

Let's keep it open. This should have been fixed but it seems the fix might not work.

[saviocamacam]

On windows, the same thing happens.

[mgechev]

@aniruddhadas9 are you still able to reproduce with the latest Angular CLI?

[mgechev]

Closing the issue due to inactivity. If the problem still exists in the latest version of the CLI, please open a new issue following the template and providing a minimal demo where we can reproduce it. Thanks! :-)
