I have an angular app using version 5.2 which is throwing the following error when building for production (does not throw the error when running the app locally or running a standard build.)
ERROR in Either route or analyzedModules has to be specified!
Upon research the error is thrown by the ahead of time compiler but I'm not sure what could be causing it, if anyone has suggestions of where to look that would be greatly appreciated.
Edit: As requested here is the error stack
ng build --prod

This error occurs most commonly within your development environment (while running ng serve ) when you have created a new module on the filesystem but the Angular development environment has not picked up the new module file yet.
Production is the new default When you create a new Angular project, the commands ng build and ng serve use the production build by default.
To Fix Error “This command is not available when running the Angular CLI outside a workspace Error”, Do Right-Click on yours project name in VS Code and Click “Open in Integrated Terminal” Option. It would open the project to your terminal and error would be fixed.
The ng build command is intentionally for building the apps and deploying the build artifacts. The command does not generate an output folder. The output folder is – dist/. The ng serve builds artifacts from memory instead for a faster development experience.
I realised I was using version 6.0.1 of the Angular Compiler CLI with an Angular 5.2 app. I reverted the version of the Compiler CLI to 5.2.11 and the issue is resolved.
