I am getting the same error as well. Note, I wasn't getting this error on Saturday last week when I upgraded another project.

Can you try to update your global cli?

npm i @angular/cli -g

[telb99]

@alan-agius4

I had the same problem trying to update from 12.0.0.0 to 12.0.0.1 just now.
Didn't have a problem last week updating from latest 11 to 12.0.0.0.
Your suggestion to updating the global cli fixed it for me.

[yuriy-donskikh]

Thank you very much @alan-agius4 ,

It helped, issue can be closed.
