I thought I would have a go with the CLI.

I followed the instructions - I had the latest NODEJS 9.9.0 - and it certainly created the project with all the dependencies however it actually never finishes loading in GIT BASH…

 ![CLI%20hangs](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex027/uploads/aurelia/original/1X/5b9736c3d92cf38980ee797f88b6ce5c246938da.png)

It hangs straight after “Happy Coding”… I close the window and I get this:

![CLI%20crash](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex027/uploads/aurelia/original/1X/7ddf959c366c4ec647af9ff7390041f9cbcb57b4.png)

It DOES finish in Microsoft powershell but when you cd to the directory and try and run it I get the error below.

Now I thought it might be NODEJS being 9.9.0. I uninstalled this version and installed 8.10.0 and I am getting the exact same outcome

I cd to the directory and run “au build” (or “au run”) and the following error happens.

```
ERROR in C:\Users\simon\Documents\1. AURELIA\CLI\PROJECTS\Typeahead\test\jest-pretest.ts
[tsl] ERROR in C:\Users\simon\Documents\1. AURELIA\CLI\PROJECTS\Typeahead\test\jest-pretest.ts(3,9)
      TS2305: Module '"C:/Users/simon/Documents/1. AURELIA/CLI/PROJECTS/Typeahead/node_modules/aurelia-pal-nodejs/dist/index"' has no exported member 'globalize'.

```

I did look up for the error “has no exported member ‘globalize’.” and there is precious nothing on it.

I was hoping this would work out of the box…

Why is it erroring like this and what has to be done to fix it?

Here is the full Powershell transcript with me running yarn manually - same error…

I am Mac user. But I saw this yesterday when testing something on a Windows PC, running nodejs 8.9.4.

Cli just never returns from “Happy Coding!”. So I shut the terminal off. The project files are all good though.

I was using GIT bash too.

~~Can you try `npm install` or `yarn` in the project folder before try au run/build?~~  
~~As long as files are intact, it should recover.~~

Nvm, it looks you tried yarn.

You can try create a github issue on [https://github.com/aurelia/cli](https://github.com/aurelia/cli)

Australia ☹

Just downloaded as it suggested using bash… so I suspect the latest version.

I will eventually get this.

I have loaded my entire project up to GIT at [si2030](https://github.com/si2030/ASPNET-CORE-2-Aurelia-JobsLedger). If you can get that going it will show you the issue I have with the address custom template. Let me know if you decide to look in that direction.

@Alexander-Taran I am quite sure this is a cli bug on Windows. All I did was `npm i -g aurelia-cil`, then `au new something`, and I saw that @si2030 described.

But I am not the right person to investigate since I am not a Windows user. Not sure whether Git bash shell had some effect on this.

I have read the discussion this morning on the issues with the CLI. I have used the command prompt to get the cli to work however I still get an error in the console. Any idea why and how to get rid of it?

@si2030, according the info in the issue. That is a separate Webpack4 issue, you need to manually update your package.json to force using webpack3.

Looks like webpack 4.1.1 is enough to fix it.  
Find “webpack”: “^4.2.x”, change it to “webpack”: “^4.1.1”, remove your node\_modules folder, package-lock.json or yarn.lock file. Then reinstall everything with `npm i` or `yarn`.

But I am not a webpack user, I might missed something. In case you have other issue, I believe @fkleuver would love to help.

Sadly I was already on 4.1.1

I did delete both the node-modules and the package lock file and re installed the node-modules folder… However I am still getting the same error.

in bash I am getting this readout… it serves and the project does run but it has that error.

Not sure, maybe you can try “webpack”: “4.1.1” to force it.

Ok so I did amend this to so it forced webpack to be 4.1.1 and unfortunately I am still getting the same error. ☹

Seriously?  
It was discussed in great detail @ issue [https://github.com/aurelia/cli/issues/859](https://github.com/aurelia/cli/issues/859)  
It is git-bash issue
