Cannot create JHipster application (error in ng plugin) - gulp

Question

I appreciate this is probably not a JHipster specific issue, but how some of my dependencies may be installed. It happens on 3.0.0 and 3.1.0. On the other hand 2.27.0 is fine.
This happens when I run yo jhipster.

Then when I start the application I get this on the browser's console:

Any hints or ideas?

Answer 1

I had exactly the same problem as the OP, I changed to use the LTS version of Node as Gaël Marziou suggested. This fixed the problem.
