Based on those tutorials : https://angular-templates.io/tutorials/about/angular-internationalization-i18n-multi-language-appand https://medium.com/@ismaestro/angular-7-example-app-with-angularcli-angular-universal-i18n-official-firebase-66deac2dc31e I'm trying to build and use an Angular 8 app using i18n as internationalisation system.
However, when I try to run npm build:ssr
(cfr. below), I get An unhandled exception occurred: Project target does not exist.
Here, the angular.json:

As previously explain, I would like to successfully run my Angular application with i18n. But the error message is:
[error] Error: Project target does not exist. at WorkspaceNodeModulesArchitectHost.getBuilderNameForTarget (/Users/user$ at RunCommand.runSingleTarget (/Users/user/Desktop/Boilerplate/boilerpla$ at RunCommand.runArchitectTarget (/Users/user/Desktop/Boilerplate/boiler$ at RunCommand.run (/Users/user/Desktop/Boilerplate/boilerplate/node_modu$ at RunCommand.validateAndRun (/Users/user/Desktop/Boilerplate/boilerplat$ at process._tickCallback (internal/process/next_tick.js:43:7) at Function.Module.runMain (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:778:11) at startup (internal/bootstrap/node.js:300:19) at bootstrapNodeJSCore (internal/bootstrap/node.js:826:3)
If someone already had the same issue and could explain me what I'm doing wrong ? Thx
I found this. The problem is:
1) you are missing architect
config in angular.json
file.
2) There is a problem at your browserTarget
. The target must point to the project, not to Angular.
1) Please add these line to angular.json file => project => {{your project name}} => achitect: (remember to replace
"{{project name}}"` to your project name)

},
"configurations": {

}
}
2) Make sure you have @nguniversal/express-engine
and @nguniversal/builders
in your package.json
:
npm i @nguniversal/express-engine @nguniversal/builders -D
