I was tried to run my project but it through an error

Error: Schema validation failed with the following errors:
Data path "" must NOT have additional properties(customWebpackConfig).

MY Angular CLI INFO

Answer 1

I have exactly the same problem. When adding the custom-webpack to Angular, it didn't bother updating the schema.json, so now the angular.json doesn't validate against the schema.

My hunch is that if you add "@angular-builders/custom-webpack:browser" to "The builder used for this package" and add a matching "builder" and a matching "... target" schema definition, then it'll validate.

However, I'm not entirely sure what the schema is supposed to be containing and I'm having a great deal of difficulty trying to find an example schema.json that supports custom-webpack.

Answer 2

try to change all @angular-builders to @angular-devkit
