same error here after updating from angular-cli to angular/cli

[nmongiya]

same error here , I am using windows 10

[thomasdtucker]

I am having the exact same error. I have uninstalled node entirely. brew installed node again. And installed @angular/cli from scratch. I also tried downgrading versions of cli and it still happens.

[lafama]

Anyone with a fix for this?

[intellix]

Debugging this a little. I'm also getting input of null when pushing an ng2 app. I'm only getting this when pushing to a Deis PaaS application but everything works when it's Heroku. I'm even using the same build pack but it's still not working.

I see that glob, input and output are all values of schema.json to do with the assets array for copying stuff over.

I've tried:

• angular-cli rc.0 and 1
• without AOT flag
• having at least 1 file inside the assets folder for copying (as it was empty)
• removing my project yarn.lock to enforce npm
• copying the schema.json to the root of my project and referencing it inside .angular-cli.json
• node 6 and 7
• removing assets property entirely
• removing assets folder and favicon.ico from assets property
• renaming .angular-cli.json to angular-cli.json

Deleting the assets property entirely from .angular-cli.json gives me the input of null error so I guess that's why my ng2 project gets that error when pushing to Deis PaaS

It seems there are a couple of related issues: #4889 and #4207

My error, which may signify that it also doesn't work from /tmp/build:

Cannot read property 'glob' of null
       TypeError: Cannot read property 'glob' of null
       at ObjectSchemaTreeNode._set (/tmp/build/node_modules/@ngtools/json-schema/src/schema-tree.js:224:131)

[Shirish-FrontEndDev]

I was facing same issue, I had run ng unit in system root directory by mistake. Once I had delete all the angular-cli files it was working What I had don to resolve on windows-10 system. 1. Open cmd. 2. Run dir. (in Linux or mac its ls). 3. If you find angular-cli files just delete. And it's work for me.

In #4889 (comment), @huntsberg said:

It looks like #4207 is the same issue. If you set up the environment in your home directory, it fails. It's a common pattern in docker to put the app in the home directory.
Changing the home directory seems to resolve the issue.

[filipesilva]

Dupe of #4207, especially relevant is #4207 (comment)
