I'm not aware of any steps to reproduce and this error is not causing any problem at all The app is working normally and the Menu Page is displayed correctly.

import { Component, ViewChild } from '@angular/core';
import { IonicPage, NavController, NavParams } from 'ionic-angular';
import { Nav, Platform } from 'ionic-angular';

@IonicPage({
  name: "menu",
  segment: "app"
}
)
@Component({
  selector: 'page-menu',
  templateUrl: 'menu.html'
})
export class MenuPage {}

I had checked my project and the menu page is only used by its IonicPage name "menu".

There is already an ionic forum post but I am already following the proposed accepted solution which is about giving a name to the IonicPage annotation.

Same thing happens to me sometimes. Likewise I was not able to determine where the error comes from, as it happens only rarely. Looks like a bug with the app scripts, as stopping and starting "ionic serve" seems to solve the issue.
