cordova - Error on adding platform in Ionic Framework on Windows

Question

I get the following error while adding the Android platform. I had checked my ant -version and it outputted it correctly. Also, I noticed when it created the myApp folder node_modules wasn't fetched with it. Beneath is output from my console:

Answer 1

I'm using Ubuntu 14.04 and fixed it by setting these paths to the O.S. Path:

export ANDROID_HOME=/home/coutinho/android-sdk 
export ANDROID_TOOLS=/home/coutinho/android-sdk/tools/  
export ANDROID_PLATFORM_TOOLS=/home/coutinho/android-sdk/platform-tools/

PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME:$ANDROID_TOOLS:$ANDROID_PLATFORM_TOOLS:.

Then it worked fine.
