I just found out about webpack bundle analyzer through this link and went to try it out. I was able to run the build and get a stats.json file, however when I run:
webpack-bundle-analyzer dist/RDPortal/stats.json
I get this error:
events.js:183
throw er; // Unhandled 'error' event
^

I tried googling the error and webpack bundle analyzer, etc. but couldn't find anything significant that helped. I'm building from the WebStorm IDE in an Angular project and as mentioned the stats.json generates fine (32mb, holy cow).
I did also run the install as npm i webpack-bundle-analyzer
in case that matters...
Any help would be most appreciated.
