Not able to extract css using Webpack2

Question

I am trying to extract all the css into one file, I am using webpack2 and i have extract-text-webpack-plugin@2.0.0-rc.0, the following is my code

webpack

var webpack = require('webpack');
var HtmlWebpackPlugin = require('html-webpack-plugin');
var ExtractTextPlugin = require("extract-text-webpack-plugin");


module.exports = {
    entry: './app/main.ts',
    output: {
        path: './dist',
        filename: 'app.bundle.js'
    },
    module: {
        rules: [
            { test: /\.ts$/, exclude: /node_modules/, use: ['ts-loader'] },
            { test: /\.css$/, use: ExtractTextPlugin.extract({ fallback: 'style-loader', use: 'css-loader', publicPath: "./dist" }) }
        ]

    },
    resolve: {
        extensions: ['.js', '.ts']
    },
    plugins: [
        new HtmlWebpackPlugin({
            template: './index.html',
            minify: {
                collapseWhitespace: true
            },
        }),
        new ExtractTextPlugin({
            filename: 'style.css',
            disabled: false,
            allChunks: true
        })
    ]
};

package.json

{
  "name": "angular-quickstart",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "description": "QuickStart package.json from the documentation, supplemented with testing support",  
  "keywords": [],
  "author": "",

  },
  "repository": {}
}

main.ts

require('../app/content/custom.css');
import 'core-js';
import 'reflect-metadata';
import 'zone.js/dist/zone';

import { enableProdMode } from '@angular/core'
import { platformBrowserDynamic } from '@angular/platform-browser-dynamic';

import { AppModule } from './app.module';
platformBrowserDynamic().bootstrapModule(AppModule);

when i try to run the webpack, i get the following error

I was following this tutorial for building webpack webpack tutorial

maybe worth it to update "extract-text-webpack-plugin": "2.1.0", — José Quinto Zamora, May 03 '17 at 09:25
i tried to update extract-text-webpack-plugin to 2.1.0 along with webpack@2.2.0 but it is not working — Lijin Durairaj, May 03 '17 at 10:04
"webpack": "2.4.1" and "extract-text-webpack-plugin": "2.1.0" should work together take a look here: https://github.com/jquintozamora/react-typescript-webpack2-cssModules-postCSS/blob/master/package.json. Anyways what is the error when trying. — José Quinto Zamora, May 03 '17 at 10:09
Anyways, try to use some webpack validator https://www.npmjs.com/package/webpack-validator as it seems to be webpack config format error. — José Quinto Zamora, May 03 '17 at 10:09

First you can safely remove the const webpack = require('webpack') from your webpack.config.js, it's not needed :)

Could you try to without publicPath: './dist' && use: ['css-loader'] instead of use: 'css-loader' in ExtractTextPlugin.extract() ?
