Tried to overwrite @angular/cdk/stepper/step-header.d.ts.__ivy_ngcc_bak with an ngcc back up file, which is disallowed

After upgrading @angular/core and @angular/material using ng update command, the ngcc command fails with below error

command used:

ngcc --properties es2015 browser module main --first-only --create-ivy-entry-points

Error:

> Compiling @angular/cdk/stepper : es2015 as esm2015
> Compiling @angular/cdk/drag-drop : es2015 as esm2015
> Error: Error on worker #3: Error: Tried to overwrite node_modules/@angular/cdk/stepper/step-header.d.ts.__ivy_ngcc_bak with an ngcc back up file, which is disallowed.

In the /dist directory delete all files *.__ivy_ngcc_bak and the directory ivy_ngcc, and run ng build again. It works fine for me.

In my case I had a Angular 11 library used inside a consumer app using npm link command.

I was getting the error running npm start in the the consumer app. The fix for me was this in library's tsconfig.json (was "false" before).

angularCompilerOptions": 
{
    "enableIvy": true 
}

Interesting how this fix is the opposite of the one for Angular 9 mentioned above by @Ahmed El-Araby, maybe because in Angular 11 Ivy is enabled by default

Turning enableIvy off, did work for me.

from tsconfig file, under angularCompilerOptions

add "enableIvy": false

Make sure to clean your workspace after upgrading to angular 9 and reinstall all packages/dependencies. It actually resolved most of my errors.

Cleaning workspace by deleting node_modules folder, package_lock.json and reinstalling all packages by npm install resolved most of the issues

  • Delete your node_modules folder
  • Delete package_lock.json
  • Reinstall packages after deleteing with npm install
