Angular AOT error while compiling (something with angular / compiler-cli)

Question

After going through the AOT tutorial on the Docs page, I am trying to compile angular 2 AOT and get the following error

"node_modules/.bin/ngc" -p tsconfig-aot.json

TypeError: compiler.AnimationParser is not a constructor
at Function.CodeGenerator.create (C:\Projects\NeilKellyClient4\node_modules\@angular\compiler-cli\src\codegen.js:108:400)

at Function.Module._load (module.js:438:3)
at Module.runMain (module.js:604:10)
Compilation failed

I am stuck at this point. Any reason angular / compiler-cli throws this error?

Answer 1

As you say, this is a version conflict. I had the same problem and I had to reinstall the package in order for it to work with the specified version. I would suggest installing release versions and re-launching until you get what you want. For what it's worth, I had the same error, and 2.1.2 worked for me.

npm install @angular/compiler-cli@2.1.2 --save-dev
