Mention any other details that might be useful.

AOT was working fine for me in beta.16
If I change it back to a wild card the app will compile but I have two libs being served from node_modules and while the app will compile I get runtime errors such as:

Return type of public method from exported class has or is using name 'Observable' from external module "/Users/dannyblue/Documents/projects/ls-dashboard/node_modules/rxjs/Observable" but cannot be named.

Which also did not happen with beta.15. I will also point out that importing app module directly will also throw the same error at compile time.

import { AppModule } from './app/app.module';

I am curious if this has something to do with now doing the AOT compilation with a virtual file system.

@filipesilva update. I also cannot go back to beta.16. If I install beta.16 specifically I now get. I am assuming this has to do with one of the internal packages updated for 17?

I am also willing to help test and debug. I looked through the code a bit and found where the error noted in the issue happening but couldn't make any progress from there. The path is correct but node just doesn't seem to think it exists.

@deebloo nuke your local node_modules. Semver must have accepted the newer versions.

[deebloo]

@filipesilva already tried nuking and clearing the cache. something must be getting stuck somewhere hmmm. Will try on a different machine.

[filipesilva]

@deebloo local and global? I noticed that the @ngtools/webpack (the aot plugin) is just pointing at latest, so there might be a version problem in beta.16 now.

[deebloo]

@filipesilva yup local and global. what version of @ngtools/webpack should be used by beta.16? (so i could add it to my local for now)

[jaykhimani]

Same happens with ng build as well.

[filipesilva]

@deebloo should be @ngtools/webpack@1.0.0 I believe.
