Also happening for me. This appears to be an issue with RX.

import { Observable } from 'rxjs/Rx' need to be replaced with import { Observable } from 'rxjs/Observable' in Angular5

[tomaszwawrzyniakit]

@msaricaclf Does not work for me

[finalxcode]

[vaibhavkkulkarni]

Have you tried updating to typescript version ^2.6.1?
Modify it in your package.json and rerun a npm install

[FherNando]

Updating to 2.6.1 and re-running npm install worked for me.

[rubenrichtering]

@FherNando thanks! Updating to 2.6.1 did the trick.

[dineshchrysler]
