Error when updating Angular app from version 10.2 to 11.0

I'm trying to update my Angular project. I have done this already multiple times in the past and it worked well. But from version 10.2 to 11.0 I get this error right when running the first update command from the guide (update.angular.io):

ng update @angular/core@11 @angular/cli@11

And this is the error:

npm ERR! code ERESOLVE

Has anyone experienced this error and knows how to handle it? I'm unfortunately a bit helpless.

npm install --legacy-peer-deps right after the posted error message was what did the trick. It helped me to continue my Angular update from 10.2 to 11, and then to 12.

The project has no problems afterwards.

For me the problem was that the code editor was open.

On closing the editor and running ng update @angular/core @angular/cli angular successfully updated


Otherwise , try below :

* Delete node_modules and package-lock.json
* npm cache clean --force
* npm i --force
