I have no clue what's going wrong and how to fix this error.

Also there is no issue just for ng build command without --prod attribute in my case now.

Furthermore I've added PWA stuff to my app by this command add @angular/pwa as shown in this tutorial.

How to fix this error? Any advice will be appreciated.

I struggled for an hour on this error today.

My issue was in ngsw-config.json. My file was not valid json.

The error stacktrace does not point clearly to the file.
Make sure this file is valid with jsonlint.com as pointed by tenor528.
