@jetav8r,

What Angular version are you running?

Thanks,
Dan

[jetav8r]

4.1.3... I was able to get it to work by downgrading from angular 4.2 Didn't realize I had to remove the ^ symbol in the package.json file in order for it to force the downgrade back to 4.1.3 It's working now that angular is back to 4.1.3 Thanks for the email! Wayne

@jetav8r,

Yep, Angular 4.2 changed something in the ng factory files. We'll need to upgrade to match them.

Thanks,
Dan

I'm also having this issue, and it seems some browsers have issues with animations below Angular 4.2 (like angular/components#5019, angular/angular#14007 and I'm also having a Partial keyframes are not supported I cannot explain on an older browser). Supporting Angular 4.2+ would be great to limit the risk of issues with things like animations.

Any update so far about this issue?

Thanks!

EDIT: I just noted it might be a duplicate of #1006 and #1070.

@danbucholtz We are getting this issue too. Any eta on a fix? Thanks!

[cmartin81]

I had a look inside the sourcecode. And the appNgModuleFactoryFileContent has changed. It cannot find any matches on the regex /this.?DeepLinkConfigToken.?=([\s\S]*?);/g
This only happens when you run it with the --aot or --prod option

Are there any eta on a fix?

@danbucholtz has the Ionic team run into this issue yet now that ionic-angular uses angular 4.3.6? I'm running the latest ionic-angular build and I'm hitting this issue now that angular has been upgraded.

[soumak77]

@danbucholtz seems like this issue is resolved. I just tested with @ionic/app-scripts@nightly and the production build succeeded!

npm install @ionic/app-scripts@nightly --save-dev worked for me.

Thanks @pedrohills, it also worked for me.
