How to fix Angular 'Cannot find control with unspecified name attribute'
Problem:
In your Angular2/4/5 application you see this error message:
angular_error.txt
Cannot find control with unspecified name attributeSolution
Look for a statement in the HTML angular template like this:
template_example.html
[formControl]="myCtrl"The error message means that myCtrl can’t be found. Check if this variable is present in your class - it needs be a FormControl which you can import from @angular/forms:
import_formcontrol.ts
import { FormControl } from '@angular/forms';In my case, changing it to
template_fixed.html
[formControl]="myControl"fixed the issue
