ANDROID_HOME has been set to the SDK path, JAVA_HOME to 1.8 path. Other paths: %ANDROID_HOME%\build-tools, %ANDROID_HOME%\tools\bin\sdkmanager, %ANDROID_HOME%\platform-tools, %ANDROID_HOME%\tools, %JAVA_HOME%\bin. In console: $ ionic cordova build android. This gives me the error. I've must overlooked something. @Lokkeshwaran — Martin Schoonbeek

Found out it has to do with Android itself. I prepared the Android version with the command: ionic cordova prepare android, then I opened the build with Android Studio.Then I adjusted the build.gradle file, commented //debugCompile(project(path: "CordovaLib", configuration: "debug")) //releaseCompile(project(path: "CordovaLib", configuration: "release")) and added: compile project(':CordovaLib') — Martin Schoonbeek

npm install -g [email protected] [email protected]
cordova platform rm android
