Error: No provider for HttpHandler in angular2

I am trying to implement HttpCache through interceptor. Following is the caching-interceptor.service.ts

import { HttpRequest, HttpResponse, HttpInterceptor, HttpHandler, HttpEvent } from '@angular/common/http'
import { Injectable } from '@angular/core';
import { Observable } from 'rxjs/Observable';

import 'rxjs/add/operator/do';
import 'rxjs/add/observable/of';

export abstract class HttpCache {
  abstract get(req: HttpRequest<any>): HttpResponse<any>|null;
  abstract put(req: HttpRequest<any>, resp: HttpResponse<any>): void;
}



@Injectable()
export class CachingInterceptor implements HttpInterceptor {
    constructor(private cache: HttpCache) {}

    intercept(req: HttpRequest<any>, next: HttpHandler) : Observable<HttpEvent<any>> {
        if(req.method !== 'GET'){
            return next.handle(req);
        }

        const cachedResponse = this.cache.get(req);

        if(cachedResponse){
            return Observable.of(cachedResponse);
        }

        return next.handle(req).do(event => {
            if(event instanceof HttpResponse){
                this.cache.put(req, event);
            }
        })
    }
}

and I am calling from test.service.ts

import { Injectable } from '@angular/core';
import { Headers, Http, Response} from '@angular/http';
import { HttpClient} from '@angular/common/http';
import { Observable } from 'rxjs/Observable';
import { ReplaySubject } from 'rxjs/ReplaySubject';

import 'rxjs/add/operator/map';
import 'rxjs/add/operator/catch';

import { BehaviorSubject } from 'rxjs/BehaviorSubject';

import { APIService } from './api.service';
import { CachingInterceptor } from './caching-interceptor.service';
import { ConfigurationService } from './configuration.service';
import { AuthenticationStatus, IAuthenticationStatus } from '../models';
import { User } from '../models/user.model';

@Injectable()
export class PlatformService extends APIService {



  constructor(private http: Http, public httpClient: HttpClient, private configuration: ConfigurationService,
     public cachingInterceptor: CachingInterceptor) {
    super();


  }

  getUserById(id: string) {
    console.log(this.requestOptions);
    return this.httpClient.get(this._getAPIUrl('user/' + id),this.requestOptions).
      subscribe(res => res);
  }
  get requestOptions(): RequestOptions {
    const tokenObj = window.localStorage.getItem('TOKEN');
    const token = JSON.parse(tokenObj);
    const headers = this.headers;
    headers.append('Authorization', 'Bearer ' + token.token);
    headers.append('Access-Control-Allow-Origin', '*');
    return new RequestOptions({ headers: headers });
  }


}

and Module file is following

import { CommonModule } from '@angular/common';
import { HTTP_INTERCEPTORS, HttpClient } from '@angular/common/http';
import { FormsModule } from '@angular/forms';

import { ModuleWithProviders, NgModule } from '@angular/core';

import { PlatformService } from '../../services/platform.service';
import { CachingInterceptor } from '../../services/caching-interceptor.service';


@NgModule({
  imports: [CommonModule, FormsModule],

  declarations: [],

  exports: [],

  entryComponents: [EntryHereComponent]
})
export class StructurModule {
  public static forRoot(): ModuleWithProviders {
    return { ngModule: StructurModule, providers: [PlatformService,
       {
        provide: HTTP_INTERCEPTORS,
        useExisting: CachingInterceptor,
        multi: true
    },HttpClient] };
  }
}

I don't understand, what are missing so it giving error

No provider for HttpHandler.

If I add HttpHandler in provider in module file, It start giving error for provide: HTTP_INTERCEPTORS, component.

I encountered the same problem when I upgraded my project from Angular v17 to v18.1.4, you just need to include provideHttpClient() in app.config.ts file (code should look like this): 

export const appConfig: ApplicationConfig = { 
   providers: [
      provideRouter(routes),
      provideHttpClient() 
   ]
};

And please remove HttpClientModule from providers list if you have specified it somewhere as a provider since it is deprecated and can lead to unexpected behavior (my interceptors wouldn't work because of this).

For applications without @NgModule,such as Angular 17,HttpClient,HttpHandler can be placed in the provider's array of the component or TestBed.configureTestingModule()

import {HttpClient, HttpHandler} from '@angular/common/http';

For components

@Component({
  providers: [HttpClient, HttpHandler]
})

For tests

TestBed.configureTestingModule({     
  providers: [HttpClient, HttpHandler]
});

Add HttpClientModule to your imports[] in app.module.ts. This might be one of the mistakes.

HttpClient is introduced in angular 4.3,so if you want to use HttpClient you need to import HttpClientModule from '@angular/common/http'. Make sure to import HttpClientModule after BrowserModule as shown below. This official doc and so answer will give you indepth information. 

import { HttpClientModule } from '@angular/common/http';

@NgModule({
 imports: [
   BrowserModule,
   HttpClientModule
 ],
 ...
