bash /usr/bin/ng: No such file or directory in Angular

Question

When I run my Angular project by ng serve, it gives this error:

bash: /usr/bin/ng: No such file or directory

I have run npm install -g @angular/cli

Answer 1

I faced the same problem and here is what worked for me.

1) Find the .bashrc file by running -

ls -la ~/ | more

2) Open in editor, in my case emacs -

emacs ~/.bashrc

3) Add an alias at the end of the file pointing to the right path of your ng directory & save the file. e.g. -

alias ng="/usr/local/lib/node_modules/@angular/cli/bin/ng"

4) Either restart the terminal or refresh it using -

sudo source ~/.bashrc

5) Now test by running ng -v
