@soniyj in node_modules/@ionic/app-scripts/dist/logger/logger-typescript.js:29 change if (tsDiagnostic.file) { to if (tsDiagnostic.file && tsDiagnostic.file.getText) {

u can run ./node_modules/.bin/ngc check what cause the error

@ionic/app-scripts 3.1.9 is out with this a fix for this! Sorry for the delay!

@zixia @romain10009 This turned out to be a mistake I made in an html file where I did *ngIf="phones & phones.length" (I forgot to put &&)

I’m not sure how this causes the issue but to debug your own issue, you can go to the node_modules/@ionic/app-scripts/dist/logger/logger-typescript.js And add this following if condition and change the other if condition just above line 29

  if (tsDiagnostic && tsDiagnostic.file && !tsDiagnostic.file.getText) {
    console.log(tsDiagnostic.file.fileName);
  }

and change the if condition on line 29 to include the getText check

if (tsDiagnostic.file && tsDiagnostic.file.getText) {

Then run the build, and see which file has the typescript error

@staskuban can you please reopen this PR? Maybe so someone will take a look. For my experience the problem occurs when you compile with --aot (therefore also with --prod) a project managed in lazy loading. I made today a project in lazy loading and the problem, which until this morning was not there, suddenly appeared.

+1 I have this error on a lazy loaded project!

I’ve been compiling with --prod with no issues for several weeks. Now it produces this error out of nothing! Why is the PR closed?

if found which cause the error tsDiagnostic.file.getText is not a function i create a custom component in my project in my component html when i use ngIf or ngFor like this example.html

<div *ngIf="text">
  {{text}}
</div>

it works ok like this

<div>
  {{text}}
</div>

why

I reslove this issue. Problem with https://github.com/kadoshms/ionic2-autocomplete which crashes while compile with no errors. I updated check in logger-typescript fo if (tsDiagnostic.file && tsDiagnostic.file.getText) ...
