[gergelypap]

Description of Bug

Provide a concise description of your bug and your project link (if applicable).
When compilerOptions.paths is provided in tsconfig.json, the app cannot compile, it loads forever.

Not sure if this is an Angular specific issue.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Go to https://stackblitz.com/edit/angular-ivy-rsjndt?file=tsconfig.json
2. Try removing the paths from tsconfig.json, and reload the page.
3. App should compile successfully.
4. Re-add path aliases.
5. Compile should be stuck on "Starting dev server"

Expected Behavior

App compiles.

Hello, same problem here:

I added "paths" under compilerOptions and compiling is stuck on "Starting dev server":

in tsconfig.json I have (under compilerOptions);

   baseUrl": "./src",
    "paths": {
      "@appCommons/*" : ["app/commons/*"]
    }

in FILES I have:
src
   app
       commons
              util-validator.ts

Then in a component:

        import UtilValidator from "@appCommons/util-validator
