Running into the same problem here.

[marshallcool]

Where ?

[bryan-pegg23]

bootstrap's 4.0.0 beta 3 came out today. Might have to downgrade to their beta 2 again to make it work. I am running into the same issue.

[DamianKedzior]

@bryan-pegg23 Thanks. Bootstrap was a problem in my case.

[RyanWillDev]

The issue seems to be caused by this section of bootstrap's package.json file

 "browserslist": [
    "last 1 major version",
    ">= 1%",
    "Chrome >= 45",
    "Firefox >= 38",
    "Edge >= 12",
    "Explorer >= 10",
    "iOS >= 9",
    "Safari >= 9",
    "Android >= 4.4",
    "Opera >= 30"
  ],

The autoprefixer plugin uses this list and unless you have a version 7.0 or higher it does not support the last n major version syntax.

Upgrading autoprefixer should fix the issue.

@ekwebster "bootstrap": "^4.0.0-beta.2" the caret here means it will update you to the most recent version, just try yarn upgrade bootstrap@4.0.0-beta.2 or npm update bootstrap@4.0.0-beta.2

[RyanWillDev]

@ekwebster It looks like the last n major versions syntax was added in browserList 2.4 and autoprefixer updated to version 2 of browserList in version 7.0.

So, any version of autoprefixer above 7.0 should work. I corrected my comment above.

[marcelolimabh]

I have the same error

[mythz]

Running into this issue as well trying to use the latest angular-cli "1.6.3" with the latest bootstrap "4.0.0-beta.2".

[oopsmails]

Did you tried this? Same error and fixed by,

• From "bootstrap": "^4.0.0-beta.2" to "bootstrap": "4.0.0-beta.2", take out "^"
• Then npm install
• Then ng serve

[ekwebster]

Removing the caret ‘^’ did solve the problem

[krischandra]

I have the same issue instead i am getting warning.
