I'm trying to update the Angular version of a project from 8 to 11 following this guide: https://update.angular.io/?l=3&v=8.0-11.0. Updating to v9 has worked so far, however when running ng update @angular/core@10 @angular/cli@10 I now get an error message and I can't find a post online to solve it.

The installed local Angular CLI version is older than the latest stable version.
Installing a temporary version to perform the update.
āœ” Package successfully installed.
An unhandled exception occurred: Cannot locate bin for temporary package: @angular/cli.
See "/private/var/folders/qy/0lhcj3516gb2hmdfcfj8jpf40000gn/T/ng-G8l2Tv/angular-errors.log" for further details.

The logs show the following

[error] Error: Cannot locate bin for temporary package: @angular/cli.
    at Object.runTempPackageBin (/usr/local/lib/node_modules/@angular/cli/utilities/install-package.js:116:15)

I've tried "npm ci" to reinstall all node modules but I don't think that's helping. Any suggestions how to fix this?

do this:

  1. sudo npm uninstall -g @angular/cli
  2. sudo npm i -g @angular/cli@YOUR_LOCAL_VERSION (take from package.json into your project)

if it didn't help - add package.json file data & ng --version

Was upgrading from 12.0.0 to 12.0.1 and received the same error - upgrading/installing the global @angular/cli fixed it
