Value at position 6 in the NgModule.imports of AppModule is not a reference #36673
Description
🐞 bug report
Affected Package
"@angular/core": "^9.1.2",
Is this a regression?
Yes fine in Angular 8.2.14
Description
I am trying to upgrade, However I am stuck due to the following error in my terminal:
I've been following all the steps, using https://update.angular.io/#8.0:9.0. but for some reason I cannot resolve this issue.
I had looked at this issue and worked out where the problem, line, is in my app.module.ts.
ApiModule.forRoot()
if I remove forRoot(), the error has gone but I need the forRoot().
Thanks
api.module.ts:
@NgModule({
declarations: [],
imports: []
})
export class ApiModule {
// We need to use forRoot to match with the dev API module.
public static forRoot(): ModuleWithProviders< ApiModule > {
return {
ngModule: ApiModule,
providers: [
{
provide: JWT_OPTIONS,
useValue: {}
},
JwtHelperService,
GxAssuranceApiService,
CustomersApiService,
FoldersApiService,
OrdersApiService,
ProductsApiService,
SitesApiService,
SystemStatusApiService,
UsersApiService,
RefDataApiService
]
};
}
}

This helped in identifying that the error is to do with the forRoot() but I cannot find a solution in my case.
