Current behavior
After moving from 2.4.7 to 4.0.0-beta.8 I’m getting the following error when executing ng build -prod. Just ng build (without -prod) works fine.
ERROR in Illegal state: symbol without members expected, but got {“filePath”:“C:/Projects/myproj/node_modules/@angular/router/index.d.ts”,“name”:“router_private”,“members”:[“ROUTER_PROVIDERS”]}.
Expected behavior
ng build -prod should work as ng build
Please tell us about your environment: Windows 10, @angular/cli 1.0.0-beta.32.3
- Angular version: 4.0.0-beta.8
- Node (for AoT issues):
node --version= 7.5.0

I found the problem. For some reason the production build is compiling the spec.ts files although the documentation says it is exclude “**/*.spec.ts” files by default. I added this to src/tsconfig.json:
"exclude": [ "**/*.spec.ts" ]Now it compiles successfully (
ng build -prod) with the unit test re-enabled.i had the same problem, fixed it by running a different build command line:
instead of ng build --prod use ng build --env=prod
