Desired functionality.

For the app to compile

Mention any other details that might be useful.

After I installed the following packages, there was a problem. "@angular-redux/store": "^6.5.7", "ng2-validation": "^4.2.0", "redux": "^3.7.2", "redux-logger": "^3.0.6",

same issue

ng build --prod --no-extract-license works fine #7203

[waterscar]

I got same issue, both on Ubuntu and Mac

return binding.open(pathModule._makeLong(path), stringToFlags(flags), mode);
                 ^

Build without --prod works fine

UPDATE Mine issue seems to related to cnpm, after deleting node_modules/ folder and use npm install instead, build with --prod works fine again.
