Thank You!

What exactly did you update?
From what you wrote there are multiple possibilities: Your project? Your Ionic installation? Your Ionic CLI installation? …

for first time i update all npm package outdated.

After this I change the version in dependencies of my ionic project

and I run npm update.

The project works but don’t work the ionic serve reload after i change ts or html files.

can confirm - also not working for me… updated ionic2 as well to latest build (following your blog guide) and live reload is not working anymore, for both, the regular ionic serve and ionic serve --lab

Same issue here. Live Reload has stopped working.

When I save code changes, the browser automatically refreshes, but code changes are not reflected. I need to stop my CLI and run ionic serve again in order to have any code changes reflected in the browser.

I’m having very similar symptoms. Any solutions?

@filippodicostanzo, @Snag, @richardmarais, @davidgeller did anyone of you fix the problem? If so, how?

I am working in ubuntu and its working fine no issue for windows I guess consolelogs only works

I resolved with a start of new project just after copy all files into this new project

I solved this problem by removing the folder node_modules/ and file package-lock.json, then at terminal run:
npm install --save
