Hello,

try https://stackoverflow.com/questions/44897670/error-in-ionic-cordova-build-android-prod

Worked for me.

Hope it helps, Anna-lernt.

PS: I have the impression that ionic get with each update worser and worser. What has worked before isn’t working anymore.

I am also facing this issues. Maybe after updating ionic-cli to latest version. :frowning:

Yes, I also feel the same!

My solution is : npm install firebase@4.12.1 --save.

I also faced the same issue, I searched on the Google, but no solution worked for me.
After searching almost for 6 hours I tried one hack that is
I replaced line no 1 at
node-modules/@ionic/app-scripts/bin/ionic-app-scripts.js
with the below line
“#!/usr/bin/env node --max_old_space_size=4096 --optimize_for_size --stack_size=4096”
(remove double quotes while replacing) and it worked for me as a miracle
