Problem
On my Desktop, Angular commands such as
ng build
or
ng new
worked successfully, but they didnt stop / terminate after running the command. Instead, they just waited indefinitely without any output.
Solution:
This is related to analytics being enabled, see this GitHub post.
In order to fix it, run
ng analytics disable --global
It will print
Global setting: disabled Local setting: enabled Effective status: disabled
and it won’t terminate the first time you do this. Just press Ctrl+C
to force stop it.
After that, any command will exit after finishing its task
Underlying problem
I suspect this has something to do with IPv6 configuration since my Desktop’s IPv6 network setup is somewhat broken at the moment. However, I did not do any further research into this.
