Cordoba cannot add Android with ENOENT exit code

Question

I am trying to create an Android project with Cordova, however I get an ENOENT error, although I followed the tutorial very closely, it makes me angry. First up is a screenshot of the error: Here is information about my / os hardware and software:

• $ npm -version
• Output: 1.4.8
• $ cordova -version
• Output: 3.4.1-0.1.0
• $ ant -version
• Exit: Apache Ant (TM) version 1.9.3, compiled December 23, 2013
• $ java -version

• $ adb version

• Note. I copied tools.jar from jdk / lib to jre / lib after some research on the internet. Does not work.

• Note 2: I give the command "cd C: \ Users \ barisa.cordova \ lib \ android \ cordova \ 3.4.0 \ bin" There is check_reqs in this folder. However, if I type $ chek_reqs at the command line it says: "check_reqs is not recognized as an internal or external command ...."

• Note 3: I opened the propmt (cmd) command by right-clicking → starting the administrator What should I do?

Update

I cleaned .cordova and reinstall it, and now, I get this error:

My variables are defined as above.

Answer 1

If you are confident in your paths, try entering android in cmd if it says: "xcopy" was not recognized.

then add to your path:

%SystemRoot%\system32; %SystemRoot%; %SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem; 

In some cases, be sure to restart your computer.

Answer 2

In my case, I just needed to add "C: \ Windows \ System32" to my window path.

Answer 3

I had a similar problem when trying an ion platform add android.

result; partial assembly with an ENOENT error called "cordova-plugin-console" on the same child process as mentioned above superspawn.js

After trying to reinstall, etc. without permission, I changed my path variables. ANDROID_HOME was placed in user variables -

C:\Users\XXXXXX\AppData\Local\Android\android-sdk

PATH was updated in system variables to remove previous entries for the SDK and added at the end; %SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;C:\Windows\System32;C:\Users\XXXXXX\Node\;C:\Users\XXXXX\AppData\Local\Android\android-sdk\tools;C:\Users\XXXXXX\AppData\Local\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools;

Restart the computer, test it using the new ionic start <new folder> tabs cd application in the created folder, test it ionic serve --lab exit with q, then try adding the platform. ionic platform add android

now it works.

Please note that ********* now that I run "android" in CMD from my user directory ... C:\Users\XXXXX>android

I do not see xcopy not found on my screen. The Android SDK manager always loads before and still after I changed my paths.

Hope this helps ps. I am running these cmds from my non-admin user, as I never log in or use my computer as an administrator.

Answer 4

Try the following:

• run the command: npm remove cordova -g
• delete folder: C: \ Users \ your-name \ .cordova
• reinstall cordova: npm install -g cordova
• now go to the project folder and try again: cordova add android platform

Answer 5

Make sure that if you created PATH as a system variable, you must run the Command Prompt as an administrator.

I created PATH as a user variable and would get the same error when tryin started as administrator.

Answer 6

In my case, the problem was a custom TEMP variable. There were two folders.

TEMP-path does not work:

 %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Temp;C:\php 

Working TEMP path:

  %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Temp 

After that, everything worked fine!

Answer 7

I had the same error with the previous version with cord version 3.1. Go to the path to the C: \ Program Files \ nodejs directory and then install your cord. Sometimes a cordova cannot connect to the correct npm path due to a conflict. Then create your project and add the android.Hope platform, this solution works for you too.

Answer 8

I just run cmd using Administrator and execute the command 'cordova platform add android' and now it works fine.
