Angular CLI - Module build failed: RangeError: Maximum call stack size exceeded

I've tested a clean new project generated using Angular CLI 1.7.4 and it works fine. After adding DayPilot Pro 8.4.3056

npm install https://npm.daypilot.org/daypilot-pro-angular/trial/8.4.3056.tar.gz --save

the package.json looks like this:

I've also tried to use the specific versions that you mention. This also works fine:

{
  "name": "angular-scheduler",
  "version": "0.0.0",
  "license": "MIT",
  "scripts": {
    "ng": "ng",
    "start": "ng serve",

  },

  },

  }
}

I strongly recommend sticking with the defaults generated by Angular CLI.

Also, trying to upgrade an existing project to a higher version of Angular CLI often results in compilation errors. You can try to delete node_modules and run "npm install" again. If that fails, you'll probably have to generate a new project and copy your source files to it - that is the only reliable way to upgrade, unfortunately.
