Angular 6 ng build --prod error "ERROR Error: ngIfElse must be a TemplateRef, but received 'true'."

Issue

ERROR Error: ngIfElse must be a TemplateRef, but received 'true'

HTML File

<select class="form-control">
  <option selected value="0">Select Manufacturer</option>
  <option *ngFor="let brand of allMakes">
     {{ brand.brand }}
  </option>
</select>

ts file

this.allMakes = [{
  id: '1',
  brand: 'Mazda'
},
{
  id: '2',
  brand: 'Audi',
}];

It all started right after i upgraded from Angular 5 to Angular 6

Console Log Error

Solution

Issues solved, the cause was a redundant property(Bool) that was attached to the "ng-template"

noData: boolean = true;
<ng-template #noData>...Blah blah...</ng-template>
