Error with --prod

Ionic Framework ionic-v3
1

Hello,

When i use ionic cordova build android --prod --release it gives a strange error. I tried to fix it but it always results in a broken app. Does anyone have an ideahow to solve this?
Ionic cordova build android --realease works perfect btw.

Thanks in advance!

Not strange at all I think

  Type AboutPage in ... is part of the declarations of 2 modules...
  app.module.ts
 about.module.ts

You are using lazy loading? Delete the entry in app.module.ts about AboutPageModule
You are not using lazy loading? Delete about.module.ts

P.S.: Using --prod option when building in comparison to “just” running ionic server will perform extra checks
