"node.exe exited with code 1" in VS2017 after updating from TS 3.1.1 to TS 3.3.1

[KarloX2]

TypeScript Version: 3.3.1

Hi!
My project won't compile any more in VS2017 after updating from TS 3.1.1 to 3.3.1

The first error that appears in the error window is this:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Community\MSBuild\Microsoft\VisualStudio\NodeJs\node.exe" exited with code 1.

Then there come a lot more errors, most of which are like Cannot find name xxx. I guess these errors appear as a consequence of the error above(?)

In the output window I also find these lines:

2>Task "VsTsc"
2>  C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Community\MSBuild\Microsoft\VisualStudio\NodeJs\node.exe "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\TypeScript\3.3\tsc.js"  --project "C:\Projects\MyProject\tsconfig.json" --listEmittedFiles --locale en-US --listFiles --noEmit

By changing the project properties to use 3.1 instead of the latest TS the error doesn't appear any more.

What can I do?

Thanks!

Looks like a duplicate of #29524

Thanks, @RyanCavanaugh!

Is there something like a nightly build (installer for VS2017 or a way to exchange binaries) that I can use to verify that this error will be resolved by the fix already filed with the other ticket?

The "node.exe exited with code 1" problem is resolved after installing TS 3.4 RC. I still have a number of other errors messages when I compile my code that used to work fine with TS 3.1, but that seems to be a different issue. So I close this ticket.
Thanks!!
