Question

I got an error of:-

node_modules/rxjs/internal/types.d.ts(81,44): error TS1005: ';' 

Which I had expected after the installation of Angular 6.

Have shared the error below :

ERROR in node_modules/rxjs/internal/types.d.ts(81,44): error TS1005: ';' expected. node_modules/rxjs/internal/types.d.ts(81,74): error TS1005: ';' expected. node_modules/rxjs/internal/types.d.ts(81,77): error TS1109: Expression expected.

Answer 1

Due to the existence of a version mismatch, such a problem could arise which to get past, will require certain changes in your package.json file. Follow the steps mentioned below:-

Start with Going to package.json and modify "rxjs": "^6.0.0" to "rxjs": "6.0.0"

Following which, run npm install in your project. I have been using the "typescript": "~2.7.2" version and there is no need to modify the typescript version. However, if you are using rxjs-compat then you also need to change the rxjs-compat version from "rxjs-compat": "^6.2.2" to "rxjs-compat": "6.2.2"

I hope this helps you solve your problem.
